Much maligned at the back, but I thought he was very good, one of our best.

They might have gotten closer to him, but the end result would have been the same.
ads link said:Personally I thought the lack of a Stewart or even Farrer injecting in our attacking backline moves was one of the big reasons we struggled to score. We pretty much did nothing for 5 tackles then went for a kick when attacking in their 30m. Robbo just can't play that role and our whole attacking strategy is based on it.

I can't think of anyone else to slot in at fullback at the moment.Darren link said:Supposedly Soward was singing \"she'll be coming round the mountain when she comes, toot-toot\" as he circled Robbo and flashed past him to the tryline.
