That's impressed me as well. We haven't had to play too many people out of position or any Academy players yet. We've had weeks when we've had a few 18 year olds in the squad but I don't think any of them have made the 17 yet.
We look a bit short in the back row right now though. Lane and Ma'u playing 80 minutes each week isn't sustainable. Our barometer might start falling if we don't find a way to spell them.
Right now though we are Fair to Dry. Some disappointing performances and the same upsetting lack of consistency that has plagued us for the last few seasons. But we look like a team that is prepared to dig deep for a win. We don't look we will fold everytime we go behind.
I think its time for Griffin to cover 2nd row and give breathers to Ma'u and Lane, Wynne been excellent and has pace too burn, plus Mitch and Cam can play there too, Carlos the other centre nailed on, Swift and Mac first choice wingers with Shauly back up with Mitch. Biggest problem Brett will have for Saints game is does he go with Grub and Gale or Gale and Lover.
