[QUOTE="dullonien, post: 1118275, member: 13739"] I don't want to be too judgemental of the back 3 who weren't exactly given a huge amount of good ball by the forwards and halfbacks to use. Adams is a world class finisher, he's proved that time and again, so I back him to convert chances when they come his way. He's usually good at looking for work too, but he maybe didn't do as much as he could v Ireland. I was quite happy with Dyer. He get's a lot of touches and always beats the first man. Yes he probably should have done better with that hack through, shouldn't of let Keenan beat him to the ball from behind like he did, but he'll learn from that. He has pace and can beat defenders + has a solid, if unspectacular defensive and aerial game, so he should stay imo. Cuthbert was effective in his cameo, can never fault his effort. However his defensive positioning is often very ropey, so I'd be weary of him v Duhan, although his size could be useful in that duel. Given the age of Cuthbert, I'd also prefer not to drop a young up and comer who hasn't done much wrong for yet another 30+ y/o player. That's what got us into this mess with Pivac. We need to back youth where we can now! [/QUOTE]
