Hawko, it truly was an amazing team in 84. That said improvement has been continuous. If you rate the two teams compared to the rest of the world the 84 team is a million miles ahead. BUT put the two teams at their peak on the same paddock and imvho the current crop would completely dominate. Including the scrum.


With this kind of thing you have to normalise for modern training techniques. Man for man the '84 team has it over the current one, especially in the pack and then the wizardry of Ella and Campo in the backs.
