HEAVY TRAFFIC: South Africa’s Damian de Allende (bottom right) is tackled during the third rugby test against the British and Irish Lions at the Cape Town Stadium, in Cape Town this month. Former All Blacks coach Steve Hansen says the rugby played in this test series was of a style that nobody wanted to watch. “You’ve got two big packs and two coaches who don’t have any faith in what’s going to happen if they throw the ball around, so they just beat each other up,” Hansen said. He advocates a simplified and clearly officiated breakdown to speed up the game, thus giving teams less time to get more players in the defensive line, where the head knocks occur.
