Quote: Cokey "If you think Lokie & Gaz O’Brien in the halves will reap rewards, you're living in cloud cuckoo land pal. That right edge was starved at the end of last season. I agree that Milford isn't the answer, but we definitely need a quality smart half along side Lokie with hopefully a good kicking game as well.'"
I’m not convinced that O’Brien or McNamara are the ultimate answer at halves with Lokie and either, but both are strong back-up and can do a job if needed.
Another twist on the overseas prop required angle is the Dan Norman retirement. He was maybe not a shoe in for prop in the 17 based on previous performance, but now appear to have an even bigger need for a big starting 8-10.
What we will do next, I don’t know, but I lean towards an overseas halfback, ahead of an overseas big’un, but the Norman wrinkle has made it a closer call.
