[QUOTE="BPM, post: 1062365, member: 59968"] And I would have been in total agreement with you, but we all knew Farrell would not be dropped. I am concerned about our pack in the set piece and yes, if there’s no platform, Smith will likely struggle. By ‘everyone’, I assume you mean the media, because I’d hope that anyone who isn’t a casual observer would realise that playing behind a beaten pack isn’t the 10s fault. Despite Quins recent resurgence, Smith probably has more experience playing behind a beaten pack than Farrell does mind you. I’m less concerned about our pack in the loose, so I think a lot will depend on how much we can limit the amount of scrums and lineouts. [/QUOTE]
