If Bailey doesnt go its a disgrace. Mossop, Farrell and Flannagan need first team rugby.

Massively impressed by Mossop last night - the lad is raw boned, seems to have a bit of speed about him and due to his size will be difficult to stop as he develops. Should be the ideal complement on the right in 2010 to Hock on the left. Bailey's days are numbered, whilst Hansen / Tomkins should be looking over their shoulders given neither have shown any real form this season, Farrell is ripping it up in the reserves and Flanagan also looks to have potential. One of those two should be given a chance next week in Hock and Lockers absence.

Deary me.

I actually agree, we cannot justify using a quota space in the secondrow, especially with a solid at best player.

Even on a reduced contract i cannot see how we could justify re-signing him for 2010. Some seem to suggest if we cannot fill our quota spots for next year he will re-sign. I personally would rather go into the season a quota spot and player down and see who becomes available mid season as invariably someone always does.

I cant see Bailey being offered a new contract when we have lads on a fraction of his wages in the reserves

Yup. Think Paul Rowley actually coached him for a period at Westleigh High, though Moore played his amateur rugby for Blackbrook when he was on Saints scholarship IIRC.

i thought Moore played for Pats?

when mossop loan is over bring him back and put him in the first 17 for me,than next season we wont miss bailey
