Philbin works really hard, has a great engine and can make the occasional tackle bust. However I don't think he's ever been at the level we need to compete with the best, possibly mainly due to his stature. If you want an 'awesome foursome' (in the rugby sense of course) then Vaughan & Harrison and probably Musgove and possibly even Bullock (who has just been given a new 2 year deal) get in there as they're genuinely big men. Philbin isn't. No criticism, it's just the way it is.
