[QUOTE="Vieux Talonneur, post: 1164088, member: 73144"] Couldn’t agree more. He looks like a front rower and plays like one. But if he either doesn’t want to or can’t master the set piece then it’s a bit of a moot point. Injuries really haven’t helped, but even fit he’s probably a fair bit down the 8 ranks now. Earl has the shirt, Mercer and Willis have strong claims to be involved and CCS is coming. Ludlam and at a push Curry can also cover there. Dombrandt might come again. Whereas at 2, Borthwick has already been touch to see if I’m available for the 6N. There’s a great big Barbeary sized gap there. Often wondered if Rodd might fancy a switch to hooker. His scrummaging’s still not where he’d want, but he brings so much else. I’m sure he could work out the scrums reasonably quickly and wouldn’t really have to hook anyway (GRRRR) so it would all be about the line outs. [/QUOTE]
