2nd Row depth

With Weller now presumable gone, we have a back row of potentially hindy, smith and mateo, with shackleton off the bench. If two or three of these guys get injured at the same time, I dont see alot of depth there. Comments?

  • parra have more depth in their squad than most others but you still have to expect some pain if we were unlucky enough to lose 3 of our best forwards at once - no squad is deep enough to avoid that.

    Aside from bringing Horo or Oake up I would consider the option of playing Reddy at lock and perhaps even dropping back a front rower to cover. Fui Fui is mobile enough to play back row.
  • DONT FORGET WE CAN PUT GROTHE INTO SECOND ROW !!!!!!!!
  • I highly doubt that all four will get injured at the exact same time.
  • Oake is in France I think.

    Agree O'hanlon looks good and Hagan had Robinson in his top 25 12 months ago (not that it means much from Hagan).

    Cayless could easily play 2nd row for a while... any of the backs to fill in, Reddy would be my choice not Grothe... Need Grothe on tackles 1 and 2 to bash the line

""Chance is mist" is a really appropriate typo/autocorrect. The chance just goes pfft, evaporates into nothing. Not sure Dylan B has got the mix right this year, more often passing when he should run or running when he should pass. "
