That crossed my mind, and if it was the case I'd be disappointed all round.

Dont know about that.....personally i rate the guy and he has been missed big time.....we could have signed Moa and not O'meley?????



End of the day Moa has looked good but he is after a contract and is playing well...i would sooner us sign a top quality S/O.

If it were up to be Moa wouldn't be a back up player. I'd have him rotate with Manu and Lauaki on the bench to keep them all fresh. However, our weakest position at the moment is stand off but if we signed a stand off, were would we play Horne. I know he's been poor this season but he's still a quality player who you need in your starting 13.

I wouldnt start any of the 3. Next season i would have a bench of

Moa

Lauaki

Manu

Houghton



Keep it tight for the first 20 and then blow teams away with that bench. Its what good teams do.

Maybe this won't be officially announced until 1st September.

And if we have an injury in the backs during the game?

Move Berro out wide and play Houghton at hooker?

Houghton to hooker, Berrigan to centre, Hall/Briscoe to wherever. Sorry, our board is dead today.

I reckon the bench next year wil be something like:



Hame

Yak

Manu

Tansey/Hall/Briscoe



Berro is an 80 minute hooker and I think he will play 80 minutes at hooker next season (injuries permitting)

So you don't think we'l be giving Houghton any game time then?

Move Washy from 13 or play Berro there? Manu can play centre too if we desperately need him too.



I never worry about an injury to backs, deal with it if and when it happens for me.

Tansey will be starting FB and im pretty sure we wont be carrying a specific back like Briscoe or Hall on the bench. Yak also brings very little impact but is pretty good at getting us going in the first place, so i only agree with your Lauaki and Manu!!
