To be fair it isn't necessarily all that much out of position, quite a few clubs both here and in Aus/NZ play with effectively an extra prop at 13, Paul Gallen probably being the best example, or Bailey at Leeds for a spell last year closer to home. It also means Eorl gets more game time. Not saying I agree/disagree, but I don't think Eorl being played out of position is necessarily the main concern.

I'd like to see Eorl at 13 as he's super fit with pace for a big man. The only downside to this is that he'll probably not make the England squad at the end of the season due to O'Loughlin being McBanana's fave loose forward.

Caught an early flight home without telling us???

eorl says he enjoyed playing at 13... cant see himself playing in the position often but when called upon to do it he will do
