Doesn't have Phipps work rate - look what Phipps does cleaning up for some of his lazy forwards each week plus he can tackle - also have a look at Phipps tackle count each week - he puts plenty of his colleagues to shame.
I watched Dennis closely tonight, mainly to answer (for me) the issue raised by a few that he is invisible and does nothing. His work rate is very good. As I've often said before, un-flashy but hard-working players are Super Rugby bread and butter.
Is that another way of saying Horne bitched him at contact?
Horne is a tough rooster. Certainly not one who shirks contact! To be fair to Woodward, he needed to try and get high to wrap the ball to have a hope of stopping that try, so was always a chance to be bumped off.
