N.Hemisphere vs S.Hemisphere Styles

Just watching the styles of play between the North and South side Teams.

Southern Hemisphere teams play a much more exciting style football, they can spin the ball out wide, run the ball from the other end of the field, set piece play, rather keep posession that kick the ball aimlessly for territory, excellent at the breakdown

Whereas Northern Hemisphere teams seem to, kick for territory, drop goals, 1 up phases crashing back into opposition forwards.

It just seems the Northerners are farking boring and deserve to get creamed this world cup. I hope that NZ can win this and show the rest of the world that this is how you play rugby.

I believe we're well over 20% better than any other team in this world cup and can walk over any team with relative ease.

Your thoughts Murray?

I also get the impression that SH teams tend to run with the ball a lot more.

I watched a bit of North Harbour v Southland last night, and saw more fluid backline running and better handling in that game than any of the NH teams I've watched in the RWC so far.
