TBF when we won the treble we didn't actually require a Plan B. What used to amuse me is that when we scored 40-50 points in a game it was due to the fact we had buillied out opponents into submission with boring one out rugby and relied purely on brute strenghtbut whenever anyone else did put up similar scores it wa due to their expansive play.
Granted our main strenght was that we had a huge pack and our backs weren't much smallerand we used to dominate the forward battle more often than not, however there was far more to those bulls sides than the five drives and a kick one out rugby merchants with which they were often portrayed.
