[QUOTE="Don't Skip Leg Day, post: 573096, member: 35381"] I like your thinking but differ on Wood, i think Wood is the natural 6 out of that group. He does laods of work at the breakdown rucking (like your 6 should) puts in some great tackles and carries as well. I see lancaster wanting to keep a 7 at 7 after this tour and Croft/ Wood/ Robshaw will fight it out for the 6 shirt. so 6 Wood/ Robshaw/ Croft (in no particular order) 7 Kvesic 8 Morgan/ Vuniploa Then whoever is injured is covered by the other 6 (which lancaster likes doing i wouldn't do that personally). The thing is Croft Wood & Robshaw all offer something different but to be honest none would be my perfect 6. I would want a menace, a destructive type player who puts in thunderous tackles and runs which neither of those 6's are. If we are going to continue with an athletic lock pairing we need more than just Morgan being the ball busting type player. No the 23 shirt it has to be eastmond, he covers 12, 13, wing & FB. What more do you need oh and is a game changer! [/QUOTE]
