Bit rich from you. People are free to have different opinions, I'm also free to point out I think they're talking nonsense.

| Question is, how many dropped balls and no shows is it gonna take before Grix is dropped?

| Whether he makes mistakes or not his net effect is still better than most if not all.

| I reckon Jowitt will have gained more experience this season working along side Grix than at any other time in his career and Wakey will reap the benefits of that for next few seasons. You dont have to be on the pitch all the time to get experience.

And that's it in a nutshell.
Personally, I think we'll see Jowitt in the 8's, because as has already been said, Grix has looked a bit fatigued for the last couple of games, which is understandable, given that he's played a lot.
What's the expected timescale on Johnstone's return by the way - is he out for the whole season?

| He nearly gave me a heart attack three times with risky passes on out line after collecting a high ball against Saints but that risky play has brought us some entertaining rugby this year. Grix has been on the whole fantastic this year and hopefully young Max is learning from him.
I honestly thought Grix would be a utility back to replace Hall but he's given us far more than that most of the time.

This sums it up for me.
Grix is a target because it's his turn.

Most teams are using the strategy now of outside backs taking the first couple of runs out of yardage - it works well in many instances - especially with a player like MCB, who can step through tackles and put the hammer down; Johnstone was making a speciality of that too before his injury.
I tend to agree it can be a bit heart in mouth, but it saves some gas for the forwards and creates opportunities in broken play - and I'd rather that, than boring, predictable, 5 drives and a kick; and I like the endeavour of a long pass, rather than that annoying "was it forward, was it not" hand-off kind of pass, that Tomkins favours.

| I agree Bren. Of course it has to be in line with your skill but I will always back endeavour and creativity over safety.
That's been a theme this year and us great to watch.

There's zero logic to that. "Oh, I'm going to say X about Scott Grix because it's his turn".
You don't actually believe that do you? Come on now...
