Why do you think 7-1 needs to be banned? I've always seen it as a high risk option, coach looks like a genius if he pulls it off and a fool if it doesn't work out.

It makes a mockery essentially game being for all shapes and sizes. Packs are getting bigger, and then backs aren't finding them tired and the space is being shut down. It also magnifies the disparity between playing nations' pools, and that isn't good for the global game or competitiveness
Fair point on the disparity between nations. Only a couple of teams can field that many extremely big players. I'm interested in how it would develop without intervention though.
