Strange attitude or sensible approach?

Graham Henry has stated in an interview that they will not be chasing the 4 tries against South Africa and sticking to their game plan. Hold on...I thought the whole idea of rugby is to score more tries than the opposition and thus getting more points on the board and thus winning the game.

I hope Graham hasn't fallen into the northern hemisphere way of thinking that drop goals and penalties is the way to win matches. They may help, but tries are the order of the day.

I'd rather see a game where the scoreboard goes up in 5's or 7's rather than in multiples of 3!

Good luck in Hamilton. Let's hope that tries will come thick and fast..for the All Blacks that is.
