[QUOTE="Which Tyler, post: 1182464, member: 73592"] Pretty big caveat there. I can't answer the actual question for other clubs, but Bath's 4th and 5th choice hookers are 22 and 21. When Stewart was 19 (benching for the U20s) he was 7th-ish choice Also note - I didn't say that U20 can't be 4th choice, I said that "if they're not, then they're not good enough" is excessively harsh; so different point even without the caveat. Also interesting that you allow for props, but not for hookers - are hookers less specialised than props? or is it that they take less force through their spine and pelvis during scrummaging? or something else I'm not thinking of?
