What makes a good number 7.... a good forward pack

Forwards win matches and backs just decide by how much

niles mate

you hit it on the head there
A good half back needs a decent pack to work off, 1 player does not make a team, but 1 player can make a team gell

The 7 tells the forwards where to go.

being as hard as coffin nails helps too ! Brough, Bobby Goulding, Andy Gregory, Edwards, Orford, all tough, and talented, some more than others, but tough anyway.

Knowing when to kick, when to pass and when to hit the line. Having a brain and a variety of skills in attack and strength in defence.
