That back row of Hill, Dallaglio and Rodber must be one of England's best ever.

My favourite player ever. The epitome of silent excellence - he is recognised now for work that people never saw which made a big success for England back then

He was a superb player and the reason we lost the Lions Tour in Oz when Oz player deliberately used his forearm/elbow and gave him concussion!

Woodward played him at 8 when dropping Dallaglio, at 7 when dropping Back and, of course, at 6. So, effectively, he was England’s best back-rower in all three positions for much of his England career. And a lovely guy to boot…

@@simonburrows240 I agree to the most ardent supporter, but to the casual observer, he wasn't a household name like Wilkinson, Johnno was then. I can only think of Ben Earle in the current team that holds a light with previous flankers, Backie, Lawrence, Richards and Winterbottom.

I remember Hill covering a huge amount of ground to make a try-saving tackle in the corner but I can’t work out which game. Any ideas anyone?
