Quote: alegend "Your spot on about our spine said the same and been shot down .9 is a big worry two inexperienced young players who are not ready for S L and the first choice Nine can tackle but no kicking game of speed for attack Got told at Championship final that Truman was a Marquee signing . If true it is a big risk for a player who as played less than half the games in two year .Hope you are right about the pack .they went well last year, but S L is a big step up .This year is a free hit at S L so if we are clear of the bottom 2 i will be happy'"
Most people agree that halfbacks is where the most uncertainty lies as it’s new combinations and there’s a degree of unknown. It could be great, it could click straight away or it could take time. But they are of SL quality for the most part. It’s okay to be apprehensive about this but it could just as easily turn out to be a good combination also.
Doyle is mid 20s and when you say not ready that’s your opinion but he went very well with a number of strong performances last season so I see no reason why he isn’t ready for SL.
Smith isn’t ready for week in week out but he’s an England academy international and will not let anyone down when required and gain good experience in SL.
