Roseberry Collapse

Over the winter, the harsh weather has obviously put the final nail in the coffin for the; admittedly dodgy looking, left hand side of the Roseberry West Face.
Eliminator, the ever-widening E2 crackline-come-chimney has collapsed, taking with it a particularly pleasing HVS offwidth.
However, the fall of this rock has probably added to the bouldering below the crag and the wall now has potential for a few more, interesting looking lines.
I feel, the urge to return to the Moors in order to take advantage of this rock fall and also to carry on Ravensdale - my 'psyche' for moors FA's has returned in earnest and im actually abit disappointed im heading to the lakes this weekend rather than home!
However i find myself restrained in my room, doing Geo-Chemistry and about to start a thread on UKC, asking why the Mod's removed Franco's post detailing the collapse of Roseberry. Some of the UKC entreage seem quite friendly and relaxed, some however are fairly choadish.

Any Big Boulders fall the right way up?
