Your dead right on that Old Faithful and you can see how they compensate for slow play the balls with lightning fast attacking moves. Forget all the duff about SL being more exciting, how good are the Aussies with ball in hand, be it hitting up or moving it around the pitch.
That is where we lack intensity, it attack. Their play the balls were faster because they wanted to play it, we took an age sometimes to regain our feet without a defender being on us.
