Quote: kirkhall "Dont worry about size, they've got to catch him first!! Double Lance Todd winner Gerry Helme wasn't very big but he had 'minder' on the 54 tour in Charlie Pawsey! Murph had Vinnie Karalius in 58 too, Roger Millward had Malcolm Reily, Bishop had Cliff Watson , Steve Nash had many minders including Jim Mills !! come to think of it Andy Gregory had a number of minders also!! Its down to our 'hard men' to protect him on the field
Arthur Daley had Terry McCann .
Quote: TV BOY "Although I absolutely think Rob Burrow is fntstic the New Zealanders would target him all the time. Sad fact is he just isn't big enough. Another impact player yes but not a starting scrum half. You need the physique nd mentality of a world class middleweight boxer along with the rugby brain nd hands of Wally Lewis for this game.'"
In my opinion, this game will be like nothing most of the England SL players will have ever experienced. It will be brutal. I don't know how you could stop the NZ attack from running at Rob in our own half the speed they pass the ball and move round the field. Robbie has taken off a good few times this season injured after throwing himself at the big lads and did he not get taken off in the World Club Challenge concust. Anyway it was on the news that Rangi's missus is about to have their second child so that could be a very good reason to drop him. I can't wait for tomorrow and relly hope we stuff them.
