I don't think its Saints that is the problem. The powers in their infinite wisdom are allowing the ruck to be slowed down. I believe in order to bring us closer to the Aussies.
Personally however, if its going to lead to seasons of dull games I say sod the internationals because its ruining a good sport.
Saints have just had to adapt as our main method of play has been made ineffective, by changes in the refing of games.
I seriously was contemplating whether to renew my season ticket this year because to be frank, not many games have been worth the entrance fee.
Quote ="Northampton_Saint"To be fair, what else would you expect them to say? "We've made a series of monumental cock-ups in coaching appointments the last few years, are in a mess because of it and are now stuck with a limited youth team coach who can only play 1-dimensional, ultra dull, safety first rugby as a result, but just keep turning up and paying us to see this **** anyway please"?'"
Well personally telling us how it is and how they are going to do something next season to fix it, may make the decision to renew my season ticket easier. But if we are going to defend this brand of Rugby well, the heart says yes but the head say keep the money.
