Seems to be blooding Tim Doorman for a Hunt replacement. Would like to see a capable 7 who can kick like DCE. Walker seems capable of guiding a team around, but his boot is lacking long. Munster might get replaced by Walsh. No idea of Ponga's future.
Could be something like:
1. Ponga
6. Dearden
7. Walsh
9. Grant
But that doesn't look right to me. The lack of a genuine 7 is concerning.
1. Walsh
6. Donden/Mam
7. Walker
9. Grant/Dordon
Just really need that long, game-managing kicking ability. It's a shame Ponga can't play in the halves (as evidenced by his current season).
@1910 and
@Big Pete - any decent halves coming through that fit that bill?
Would love to get them blooded early with DCE at 34.
