[QUOTE="ratsapprentice, post: 631076, member: 67273"] When Wood played at 8 it was different because he was tasked with attempting to fill the role of an 8. You know perfectly well that the vast, overwhelming majority of people differentiate between 6/7 and Robshaw does not fit into that view of a 7. Clearly, no-one is going to deny that he literally has the number 7 printed on the back of his shirt. If Dylan Hartley walked onto the pitch wearing 10 but continued to throw in at the lineout and scrummage, you would still say he is a 10 because that's the number he is wearing? There is nothing wrong with having generic loose forward roles - but don't insist that Robshaw is a classic 7 because certainly isn't. And there is no point in bringing up the different numbering systems used in other countries because they aren't the ones we use, are they!? What you probably aren't aware of goodNumber10, is that this has already been explained to Tallshort but he continues to goad. [/QUOTE]
