[QUOTE="ratsapprentice, post: 573150, member: 67273"] Robshaw moved to 7 for Quins because he was better suited to it than Fa'asavalu is, you are very possibly giong to see him be played at 6 now that Luke Wallace has emerged. Let's compare Robshaw and Kvesic's Aviva stats: [B]Robshaw[/B] has played 13 games, [B]Kvesic[/B] 21. [B]Robshaw[/B] has carried 142 times for 157 metres gained with 1 Clean break and 9 offloads, 11 defenders beaten. [B]Kvesic[/B] has carried the ball 136 times for 365 metres gained with 4 clean breaks and 14 offloads, 32 defenders beaten. Those attacking stats clearly demonstrate the difference between a proper openside and a blindside. The key one being the metres gained per carry, Robshaw gains 1.1m per carry whilst Kvesic gains 2.68m. I couldn't find the turnovers won stats, but Kev leads heavily in the TO's conceded stats suggesting that he is far more competitive at the breakdown. And from what I've seen of him, that is correct.
