Totally agree as Taylor needs to prove he is fit and recovered and a reserve game or two should be the the way to do that. We have Sao, Satae, Evans, Brown, Bowden and hopefully Fash available so no need to rush and risk Taylor. Savelio will be a big miss but Lane is more than capable to fill the void in his absence, maybe give Severs an opportunity too against Toulouse.

Severs is injured I think. As is Stavely. We are short of options in the back row with Scott and Griff out as well.

Jebson looks a prospect but might be too early for him.

Geninue question can you think of a game when connor has played number 6 and had a motm performance? I honestly can't and I'm sure a lot on here were saying he isn't a stand off when he was being used in that role. For me he stays at fullback

No i cant but dont forget he was playing with Sneyd which certainly didnt help his style of play and at that time Sneyd was running the show at halfback.
Its different now because with Gale out he would be the go to man and thats why in the short term and with Shaul available to go to his natural position at full back it would be a sensible move.
Hodgson though seems to have decided that its full back for Connor and Shaul will have to make do with the odd appearance on the wing

Yes good point about sneyd and I think that's why McNamara has looked better this season everything was thru sneyd. With Jamie looking better on Sunday it's certainly a option but I just think with the injuries we have in the backs he will keep Connor at 1

Brad Gnash, I mean Fash is available

Good boost following his MOTM performance against wire

After All that whinging from minchella and some dobbin fans. No case to answer and rightly so.

Hey, Hodgo told him that Fash was likely to be out
