[QUOTE="Mrs. Peter Quinn, post: 831252, member: 12190"] The last few times I've watched Faletau it's been horribly reminiscent of the years prior to 2012 when he couldn't hold onto a rugby ball for love nor money. I'm not fully decided who I want but I know I want enough carriers in the pack. And despite the fact that Eddie Butler saves his most menacing, powerful commentator voice for when Toby has the ball, a top ball carrier he ain't. Yep a simplistic view perhaps, but I'm highly aware of how much Englands resurgence has been built upon the tempo of play you can get when big ball carriers are making you go forward. I want two good carriers in the back-row. One could be Stander or O'Brien, and Warburton seems likely to start also, which means we'd need a little extra I think at 8. Just my opinion. [/QUOTE]
