Quote: Leyther in nz "Any player who can play in a certain position is an option. Mcintosh is another option to allow Moylan to go back into the halves, if that is what Lammie wants him to do. The way he is playing at full back, it may not happen. I doubt we let a winger who was a regular in the team to leave, for is replacement to be sat in the stand every week.'"
Why on earth would we move Moylan back into the halves, after his recent performances. Moving him to 6 will not only limit the number of attacking plays he gets involved in, it also exposes the weakness of his one on one tackling. Could you see him making the try saving tackle that McNamara made just before the Amone break?
We let Briscoe go because he wasn't going to get into the team, likely taking up more cap space than McIntosh does and unlikely to be given a contract next year, so would be wrong to stand in his way. McIntosh will get a chance at some point, whether it is full back, wing or centre but he'll have to be patient.
Any unforced changes to our backline in the next week or so would be foolish.
