[QUOTE="dullonien, post: 351655, member: 13739"] Well I re-watched the 2008 Wales v Aus game earlier and we had a very similar centre partnership that day with Roberts & Shanklin to begin with, then Bishop came on for Roberts after he fractured his skull. It worked then, and we managed to keep the Aus backline relitively quiet. However I also noticed now much better out backrow were playing that day than it has done recently. Ryan Jones was everywhere and made yards every time he touched the ball. Powell was a bit hit and miss, but made some stonking runs. Martyn Williams popped up everywhere too. However there was no Pockok to play against, that certainly helped! Lee Byrne was also immense that day, as was Shane popping up everywhere. [/QUOTE]
