Back row!
« on: October 10, 2020, 05:38:30 PM »
When we had our previous successful period it was built on us having one of the best back rows around. Now we are back to that point. I also think the change of emphasis at the ruck has played right into our skill set and away from big heavy back rows. I think with the change we now have the best back row around and that is one of the keys to winning games.

Absolutely. Tremendous options in the back row - the best in the league.

Not necessarily the best back row but interchangeable with replacements and no signs of weakness

The last time we won the League we were fortunate to have 4 England internationals in our back row in Dallaglio, Worsley, Haskell and Rees.

We currently have 3 International class players in the back row and hopefully Tom Willis will be the fourth in the next season or two.
