[QUOTE="dullonien, post: 304428"] I'm still not convinced he's a natural fullback, not to say he doesn't have all the atributes to play there. He's sometimes a little dodgy under the high ball, but he does hit the line well. He obviously prefers to play 10, but I can't see him going far in that position with Biggar and Hook ahead of him in the pecking order. I still maintain that he's natuarally a midfield player, probably outside centre with his ability to beat a man on the outside like he showed yesterday. How about an O's backline of: 09 Mike Phillips 10 Dan Biggar 11 Shane Williams 12 James Hook 13 Gareth Owen 14 Tommy Bowe 15 Lee Byrne Very harsh on Bishop, who's been awesome this season, but that backline could be one of the best attacking backlines in Europe if Owen was given more gametime to develop. Or am I deluding myself? [/QUOTE]
