[QUOTE="Dmx#1, post: 196303"] Clearly. Robinson has dominated pretty much every scrum he's come up against. He and Polota-Nau took the Stormers and Reds to pieces. [/b][/quote] Lol I didnt watch the stormers game so I'll take your word for it. In the reds game I actually saw Robinson collapse the scrum at least twice. He looked like Carl Hayman once Matt Dunning came on though. Reds dont really have a quality front row imo. Benn Robinson will get his beans if he faces off against Woodcock as his opposite. Benn Robinson is a average scrummager and you should be worried if hes going to be your no.1 prop. [/b][/quote] Haha I'm gonna sound like a real tool here but I'm just a massive fan of this bloke. I remember a few scrums collapsing but they were all on the Reds feed if I remember correctly and Robinson was hardly under pressure so I dunno what it says about his scrummaging. At the end of the day he was instrumental in completely destroying a pack that stood up well against both the Crusaders and Blues. He's already come up against Woodcock when we played the Blues. I can't really remember how he went but I'm pretty sure our scrum was very solid that match. I know he doesn't look like much but I'd be quietly confident come scrum time if we had him in the Wallabies front row. edit - we won three tight heads against the Stormers. [/b][/quote] Doesnt it makes sense to collapse an opposing scrum rather than your own feed? It makes no sense unless your getting wasted by the opposing players (which I cant recall either team getting a noticable upper hand) Btw Crusaders front row is cack! Gregg Somerville whos their best scrummager gets owned week in & week out.John Afoa is a very average scrummager, Its his open play abilities that keeps him on the starting lineup, plus Woodcock can make anyone alongside him look good and Mealamu is solid in scrums.
