So, yeah.
Yeah, I think...
I think it's just a different style of footy.
I think here in New Zealand it's a bit more quicker.
I think you've got a majority of full packs have a bit more in the toolbox around skills, where I think in France a lot's real direct, a lot of upfront footy and also a lot of French flair, that's for sure.
I think the style of footy, they definitely play what's in front quite a lot, which I find here in New Zealand at times can be real structured.
where obviously
you probably know more than me, but obviously back in the days, I think New Zealand footy sort of had that balance between playing in order and chaos quite well, where I think, yeah, you sort of see it's quite structured at times where I think the missing piece is just that playing footy, you know, we're a country that's really blessed with talent and just being able to use that is quite special to watch, so yeah.
Well, to be honest, I'd say up north, they had those boys for sure, yeah.
Yeah, it's a tough question.
I think it'd be easy to answer if obviously we still had South Africa in the competition.
You know how big those boys are and how physical they are.
Yeah, it's sort of hard to judge, I think.
If it was simply which is more physical, top 14 or super, I'd definitely put my hands down to the boys up north, that's for sure.
So, yeah, it's quite hard to judge.
I think, yeah, it's just different.
Yeah, it's just different footy.
Yeah, it's just different.
Yeah, that's for sure, yeah.
And that, I think, just comes down to style footy, yeah.
