[QUOTE="BPM, post: 892127, member: 59968"] My view on Earle has always been pretty measured. It’s easy to forget he’s not that young ... Anthony Watson is only six months younger! While I accept that he’s been held back by serious injuries, his basic skills and positional sense aren’t where I’d expect them to be in comparison to his peers. I’m happy enough to have him at Quins next season. I don’t think he’s an upgrade on Yarde TBH but given that he’s younger and has significantly less baggage/attitude, I’ll take that. I really enjoyed Leicester’s performance. It’s a shame Bateman didn’t focus on tighthead as I can’t see him breaking in to the England mix as a loosehead. There’s just too much quality competition.
