[QUOTE="ratsapprentice, post: 573646, member: 67273"] Jesus ****ing christ you're now saying there is no such thing as a fetcher? Granted, the importance of [I]one [/I]player fetching for the whole team has had a huge amount of hyperbole attached to it. But "the fact is" he isn't an openside, he may well have been the best flanker on the pitch in any given game, but he has at no point fulfilled the role of an openside truly. He has tried, but he is simply not in possession of the physical attributes or skills needed to do so. He is good enough a player that his contributions have been great regardless. [/QUOTE]
