[QUOTE="Saintjay, post: 1118266, member: 55969"] I just don't know about Dombrandt. My ideal 8 is a big lump that carriers well in traffic. Probably a little old fashioned. Bodies hanging off him to make space outside or on the shoulder. If you don't have a big lump it the means you have to play big lumps or in England's case a lock on the flank. Nice lines, quick hands and feet are lovely but surely an 8's main job is to smash the ball up and anyone in the way. However I do accept most of England's current 8's don't have that so we'll have to play to what skills they do have. [/QUOTE]
