Quote: mat "Think comment from those who watch that level regularly is that he doesnt look like stepping up. Hasn't Bateman played standoff in the past?. Could that be a stop gap measure for next year?. Then move him back into loose/2nd row following year and sign a S/O or promote darville if ready.'"
That's a shame about Cain if true, I always thought there was potential there. I guess Bateman and a couple others could step into 6, but I think if we are in sl and short of a 6 I'd try and secure an actual 6 at the expense of other signings, even if it's via a loan rather than trying to make do.
