Quote: Andy Gilder "I'd see him playing in a similar way to how Buderus and Burrow operated at the end of 2011.
When Burrow came off the bench, it was often not to replace Buderus but with the Australian shifting into a loose-forward role defending in the middle unit.
I reckon you could start Sinfield at 9, then bring Aiton off the bench say after 20 minutes and have Sinfield operate in a similar way to how Buderus did. A few carries, but not as a pivot and defending in the middle third. Also means you've got him out there for his kicking game.
He can then take a breather at some point in the game if he needs to with one of the other back row options slotting in to that middle unit and doing a similar job.'"
Agree with this.
We do not need Sinfield at 6 or 13 but we could do with his captaincy and of course his kicking.
Hooker is probably the nearest we are going to get for this to happen.
