Quote: vastman "Oh come on that’s pedantry even for you. The OP states the no7 position, doesn’t mention the shirt number. Since squad numbers came into the game 7 refers to the position only ie scrum half. Any number of players have played that position whilst never wearing a 7 on their shirts, have you not noticed this? It’s who played the season in the no7 position not the shirt who was our no 7.
In the old days where you seem to live, whoever was SH that day would wear the 7 shirt even if he was normally a prop. Now Fifita could play at 7 but he wouldn’t wear that number. Sorry to appear condescending but I can’t think of any other way to put it.
Do you take every aspect of life as literally as this?'"
Yes.
The question was, ".Can you name the 11 players who have had the #7 squad number? (no cheating
)"
Same as the one that was about fullbacks.
You can answer your own question if you like but you'll be on your own a bit and confuse the thread.
