REading article in T&A seems like Kear thinks Pickersgill at 6 and Brown at FB is our strongest lineup. Not sure I agree with that as it weakens us at wing and FB at same time. Surely worth giving Race or Jowett a go at 6 and keeping other players in their strongest positions. Pickers at 6 just doesn't work. If Kear isn't prepared to give youngsters a chance what's the point in them being in first team squad?

Totally agree. We are weakened in the halves regardless of who replaces Brough. Why would you weaken both full back and wing positions to try cover for it when there is no need.

Let one of the young lads have a go at half back then you only have 1 weakend position as opposed to 3.

Well thats my logical 2 penneth anyway.

yesss! vpn is working ... expect spammage .... coyb

Jowitt in the halves with Pickersgill back at FB and Brown on wing. Correct decision IMO

Not at the game today. Is the pitch back to normal?
