Back Row
11. Tony Puletua, 12. Jon Wilkin, 13. Willie Manu, 4. Sia Soliola, 15. Mark Flanagan
Breaking the squad down by position it actually looks more balanced than other seasons. Less in the back row and more elsewhere especially prop (which is where you need depth). Hopefully Puletua and Laffranchi will get moved out wide. I would have liked to see another half back in there but apart from that it looks pretty good.

The club views him as a prop long term. Given the number of Props we have I guess that could change.

Has Manu been given number 13 just because it was vacant or for another reason? I would have thought they would have moved Wilkin to 13, Manu to 12. Unless Wilkin wants to keep #12 as it is involved with all his testimonial events/marketing?'"
I really dislike squad numbers , positional numbering 1-17 for me everytime

I liked it when, after they first introduced squad numbers (around '95?) they would still revert to 1-13 for the cup competition IIRC.

| What are Yates and Speakman like? Everyone talks about the potential Percival has, but I've not really heard much about these two.

Both have played for the England Academy. Yates from what I have seen looks like a more traditional scrum half. Seems talented but could perhaps be a bit small. Speakman was a stand off but has converted to hooker. A very sharp passer of the ball. I think he will get a run at some point to give Roby a spell.

That didn't stop Rob Burrow. We should stop this obsession with size and allow the lads talent to be tested. If he is good enough his size is irrelevant.
Edit: I was referring to the half back positions.
