[QUOTE="Rinkadink, post: 1094956, member: 74190"] Thacker's line out statistics put him in the top 3 of premiership for majority of the season. Even BT pointed out he was tops for accuracy in a match during last season (can't remember which offhand) and was a key part of Bristol's top try scoring and meters made maul during their most successful period. Thacker's weakness in set piece for past few years has been his scrummaging. None of this really matters because even the best hookers in the world won't flourish under Jones for reasons ranging from the lack of game time he gives new incumbents (poor old Dunn) and when he chooses to play them through to the procession of coaches and changing structures/systems.
