[QUOTE="ABs2011, post: 758706, member: 57663"] Cheers mate, sorry I've had this discussion with someone else in the past, hence why I am perhaps a little too vocale on it! It is a shame that the Naholo experienment doesnt appear to have worked out. I feel for the guy, and more importnantly I am a little concerned about how this will affect his future. Every now and then it turns out players gets picked a bit sooner that they are ready (for what ever reason) and they are barely heard from again. I dont think this will be the case with Naholo, but it is a bit of a worry. It would also be a concern IF NMS or Savea got injured from here on in (someone mentioned this earlier in the thread - was it you?) as at this stage I am far from convinced Naholo can plug that gap adequately on current form and perhaps with his lingering injury concerns. By the way does anyone know why he was pulled against Tonga? Was it injury or just a tactical switch? Either way it could well be a prelude for what we might expect if one of the other wingers went down. Barrett at FB and Smith back to the wing. [/QUOTE]
