[QUOTE="j'nuh, post: 748107, member: 55446"] A bit worrying that we've been forced into playing Lawes, Parling and Wood just to get the lineout right. International hookers shouldn't really need the comforts of a club player just to get the lineout right. If playing George gives us more freedom in selection elsewhere, also beefing up the scrum, and arguably not even losing out in the loose given how well George did there in the warm-ups, then it's a fairly easy decision for me. Lawes isn't setting the world alight, so I guess it isn't too much of a problem to drop him for Launchbury and keep Parling. And Haskell isn't really an improvement on Wood anyway, so I guess we can keep Wood. But it shouldn't be that our lineout is dependent on one player. [/QUOTE]
