Moral of the story: You don't need to pay too much for a good hooker.

.......and the French value big fast wingers more than most.

Interesting. Surely it must come down to the players in those positions rather than the position itself? I can’t otherwise understand why the tighthead would be so much more valuable than the loosehead, for example.

A good Tight head is the key for the whole scrum.

That’s why Australia struggle through the mid to late 00’s.

This seems to be the way of corporate policy these days . You pay as little as you can for individual positions/job descriptions. (Ask Boeing how this went for them . ) A few may benefit but most wont . You’ll have young talent ignoring certain positions just because it doesn’t pay . This is extremely dangerous for both the game and the fans . It’s a team game with contributions from all players making a successful team ..... ( Force )
