With the interchanges going down, could De Gois and Pritchard be overshadowed by Nelson and Edwards who are not known hookers but can fill in when needed, it makes sense if your hooker can play 80mins
With De Gois only useful as a tackler and that's it, and Pritchard constantly injury prone, a utility seems more useful than a straight up hooker
Peats can play back-row but it is better for the team having him at hooker. Having Nelson or Edwards on the bench is handy as they can play Lock everyweek and if Peats is either hurt or needs a breather during a game, they can fill in
De Gois and Pritchard's only hope is Peats missing out due to suspension/injury or Origin they will come in and start

Id love us to find another Pj Marsh style hooker. Would help immensely during injury ravaged periods such as this season. Kaysa has that potential, but the poor bloke has spent more time injured than not.
For sure sixties. Just like at every other position you need a backup at hooker. You just don't (necessarily) need an interchange hooker.
hahaha
here till end of next year
I don't agree a good night on the Devil's Dandruff
2 hookers are great for a couple of hours....
LOL
