[QUOTE="TRF_Olyy, post: 1074684, member: 34990"] I called Simmonds a luxury player because we need someone to do the nitty gritty hard yards type carrying, which we're really missing in the back 5 of the pack - looks like it's Curry's role at the moment which is a waste of his skillset to be just trucking it into brick walls. I'm not necessarily calling Simmonds a show pony or anything, just that he's the wrong kind of addition to the pack, especially with last weeks flank partnership of Ludlam/Curry Now if we had Barbeary at 6 this week then it's a different matter - or even Dombrandt at 6, who isn't exactly Vunipola, but is more a tight carrying presence than Ludlam/Curry [/QUOTE]
