My all time wire pack(of players I've seen)would be made up of players from 87(boyd, Roberts, Gregory)and 2011(morley, monaghan and Westwood).

The premiership winning pack of 86 is my all time favourite Boyd tamati Jackson Roberts Sanderson and Mike Greg..what a pack..and the rest of the team weren't to shabby...happy days

Oh boy you've lit the blue touchpaper there.

Mark Roberts is a player we have not seen the like of since he stopped, we have never got near his level.

Talking of our pack any ITK's heard that Makaele is leaving us after the Hull game due to his wife being homesick?

It's true. Been mentioned on the cas match thread.

i would however put money on someone talking about mark roberts

Did you see him play in the flesh or was it before your time?

I think the reason he get's mentioned a lot is that we haven't, in my opinion, had a 2nd rower as good in the 35+ years since. He was that good. Appeared out of nowhere with blistering pace on an impeccable line and timed pass. He also wasn't afraid of biff.

I saw him and I don’t think he wouldn’t make my top ten. I preferred him at centre.

Which 10 2nd rowers would you have ahead of him?

Martyn Rathbone Waterhouse Solomona Jackson Grix Currie Westwood Anderson Cullen Masila…that could be 11, and many more.

I don't know where to start with this . I'm looking forward to lefty reading it

You must be thinking of someone else, because Roberts barely played centre - I'm genuinely struggling to think of when he wore the number 3 or 4.

It would only be a couple of times if he did.

He moved from right centre to the back row.
