Quote: Saddened! "Is it? Perhaps it's been so long since we've had a decent 1-5 out on the field, but I can't help thinking a few teams are better than us in the backs.
Lomax, Morgan (Hopefully) and Percival are quality. Makinson is a very limited player but reliable and consistent and it remains to be seen what condition he's in when he returns from his injury. Swift I've never been entirely convinced by. But it will be exciting to see Lomax, Swift, Morgan, Percival, Makinson named together instead of the likes of McDonnell, Dawson, Fleming, Turner and Owens.
I'd still like another signing though. Either a backrower or a halfback. If we get an injury in the halves, we'll be back to Wilkin at halfback, or even Tommy Lee.'"
I actually agree with you on our backs. Makinson is always 7/10 and rarely goes above it, he's very consistent. Swift can come up with some marvellous plays but then can go and drop 3 simple balls.
