  1. Hurricane JD Hurricane

    The venerable Keith Quinn towards the end of his run called him the mighty Gavin Hastings on at least one Occassion. It is true he was a legend of the game. And it pleases me that you recognise his greatness. It also saddens me as I suspect possibly you, I, Starris, and gf will be the ones with memories of him.
    Still there is much to like about mike brown and he will go on to be an English captain and English atg if he stays healthy. Best English fullback I have seen by some distance.
     
  2. Howe JHF Howe

    Did you never see Jason Robinson?
     
  3. Hurricane JD Hurricane

    Only in a couple of games during the 2003 world cup. Remember I was away from rugby coverage for 15 years.

    I didn't see enough of him to compare the two players properly.

    Maybe I should go Wales...
     
  11. BoyBlunder BOY Blunder

    They don't compare. Robinson was much better afaic
     
  12. Fiery GR Smith

    I would rate Dusty Hare and Jonathan Webb ahead of Brown tbh
     
  13. The Boy Brumby ZJ Brumby

    Both more kicking kinda fullbacks than Mick. I'm slightly too young to properly appreciate Dusty, but Dr Webb was always mildly sus under the high bomb.

    The English player who reminds me most of Brown is Lewsey, actually. Both have the happy knack of beating the first man as often as not; Josh slightly quicker, Mick the more elusive runner with a safer pair of hands.
     
  14. BoyBlunder BOY Blunder

    Lewsey's biggest asset was always his defence imo.
     
  15. The Boy Brumby ZJ Brumby

    Always ran a good line, our Joshua.

    Didn't have the twinkling toes of Robinson or the flat out gas of Luger, but always ran straight and hard and had an eye for a gap.

    & yeah, defensively very solid. Good under the high ones too.

  19. Hurricane JD Hurricane

    Howe (if possible please) to let me know if there are any upsets on offer or let me know of a site where I can check.
     
  20. Fiery GR Smith

    The only upset this round would be an Italy win. I use the NZ tab odds for the Super 15 but cant see Six Nation options. Try William Hill or someone like that, Hurricane but the only result worth 2 points this round would be an Italy win.
