Brent tate was amazing rucking out of dummy half. Also had the speed to finish a lot of tries off without having to pass. Not sure Herbie is that standard.
I don't think this is always possible for a club to avoid. If I am a player I would wait to go to market before committing just like Fifita did. The Dolphins could do a Titian's and offer overs to secure him. The smart decision is to let them go rather than pay over to keep them.
I don't think its about too silly to let them go. If farnworth gets offered 500k for 3 years it might be too good to refuse. Wed be silly t I match it and he is gone.
If Cobbo plays well this season and they throw big money at him we may not be able to afford him either.
I think Turpin is...
It's annoying they will sign a few of our players who will see out the year with us. Would prefer to offload Isaako to a club where we could get him off the books straight away. Same with Oates if he goes there too like I think he will
I tend to agree with you that enforcing the follow on is the better strategic option. But its not going to happen because they don't want to risk England batting well in the second innings and the bowlers not getting sufficient rest. Especially with two front line bowlers already out of the...
It was not a correct statement. It was an opinion. It may or not be correct.
I think they will always choose to rest the fast bowlers now rather than enforce the follow on.
I think if anyone replaces Green its Marsh. Green is contributing. I wouldn't drop him. He has only batted twice. I think he should be given more time.
Disagree. He can bat 7 while we have Carey. Especially while he is contributing like he is with the ball. He doesn't have to bat 6 to justify his place.
I hope he has a good year.
I feel like there are less genuine entertaining players in the game atm that you would pay money to see them play. At his best he is great to watch
He has only batted twice for too failures. Lets see how he goes in the next few tests. I would bat him at 7 after Carey. His bowling has been good. Last summer he bowled sparingly due to injury and explains the time taken to get his first wicket. Marsh is certainly peaking too and could also be...
They will probably take Isaako Oates and Turpin from us and maybe some youngsters. I can't see what half-back or hooker they will get other than Turpin.
I don't think they will bring anyone in in January. What they did to PSG doesn't need improving. Pep doesn't like January purchases. They will go hard in the summer for a striker and a left back to replace the jail bound Mendy.
If they pick Wade he bats 6 and Green 7 I think. I am interested to see of Green's bowling develops. I know he has not done much at test level due to managing injury but it would be nice to have an additional option and see him take his first test wicket.
