I disagree that he's 'poor' there.

FB is Kearney's best position imo, but he goes ok in the halves and does a fair job there. Now we have a few decent alternatives at the back it seems sensible to use him where it benefits the team most - and with Sammut gone and Gaskell out for the medium term that may well be at stand off. We still have Danny Addy who can break up the game with his input there too and it's a matter of using the available talent where it's most needed, imo.

Kearney has looked a bit shaky at full back this season (perhaps not altogether surprising given his lack of pre-season) so I don't think we would 'lose' anything by playing someone else there for a few games

Given that our next game is London, I'd certainly look to go with Kear at full back. He didn't do a lot to get dropped this week, and yet I don't think Luke George deserves the chop either.

So Kearney into the halves, with Kear at full back definitely works for me. And there's still Addy on the bench to come on and cover either the halves or the back row.

Nice to have at least a few well arguable choices

Agree with that, will Franny think the same way?.....

Collis charged with a grade C offence for tackle on Gaskell. The dirty fekker!!

I don't think Kearney needs dropping. He needs game time to get hos sharpness and fitness up to match level.
