| As soon as Keighran's back I would like to give Eckersley a run at full back. That keeps the team as near as possible to what it normally is, and he has played there in the past. That said, Hampshire will get better with more regular game time. He is clearly not as good as Field or French and never will be, but being dropped in for a game here or there with long gaps between gives him no chance to build form or understanding. Also, if Rocky is not able to find some form and nail a place down with Field out for a couple of months then it's time to ship him on at the end of the season. He was signed because he covers halfback and fullback. If he can't do that then we should let him go somewhere else, where he can hopefully get himself the security of a longer contract now he's at the back end of his career.

| I seem to remember Rocky has had a few spells as hooker at Cas - he could take Leeming's place on the bench, and be a similar type of player able to inject a bit of pace at dummy half. Closest like for like swap we have.
Then its a decision on FB and No 6 . Do we keep Eckersley in the team and move him to FB or keep him at Centre , and Adam goes to FB, or keep French at FB and put Farrimond in at 6 - he looks to be able to take a similar running threat and has a short kicking option too close to the line similar to Bevan leaving the organisation to Harry .
I'm favouring putting Farrimond in at 6 as it's the closet like for like with Field and French offering threats at both FB and 6.

I [ido[/i think there's a more than decent player in there somewhere. Just needs more consistency (& maybe game time) as well as showing willing.

There probably is but he is now keeping a youngster out of the team so this should be his last season
