Quote jimlav="jimlav"He may well struggle.
This season:
Taylor
Flower
Clubb
are looking like the backbone with one from:
Crosby
Pettybourne
Sutton
Dudson
Being the 4th choice and other back ups to cover injury.
The back row will be pretty easy to pick when Joel Tomkins comes back into the team (assuming he can play to a similar level he used to). Farrell and Tomkins would be 11 & 12 and Bateman off the bench. So Pettybourne and Clubb who can play in the back row should be focused on the prop places.
Next season you would assume its Tautai in, Taylor out.'"
The Taylor rumours seemed to have died down recently, and it was suggested on the Hull board that he's staying for next season and moving to them the year after. May well be blind optimism on my part, but I really hope that's true. If he does leave next season then we need a quality replacement alongside Tautai IMO.
