Quote: The Eagle "I'm going to go out on a limb and say thats not what he was meaning. If you define players in rigid terms of what makes a good fullback, or a good stand off, some exceptional players will fall into neither camp. Players like Burrow or Tompkins have flaws in their game which means they would probably not fit into the pre-defined role, but their abilities are such that you have to have them in your team.
A similar argumnet could be made about Sinfield as a stand off and a loose forward'"
Thank you Eagle. I even said in reply to Gareth, "to back up your argument", which was exactly what you are saying.
