As I said Canberra did way more than was neccessary to clear the path. Because of that it was never going to stand (and cost Canberra an attacking set in return for a defensive set) but if your forwards were a tad more subtle with the push through it could be a winner.
It was great to see someone thinking about how to introduce a base of the scrum move.
