It's a long season and I'm sure they'll all be needed at some time in different positions.

He looks every bit ready to me to be honest every time he plays he looks comfortable, I guess you don`t know how a body will hold up to this level of rugby every week but not sure when you will find if you don`t give him the chance, its not like he`s a young lad that still doesn`t look all there, physically he looks there to me 100%.
Brads obviously a special player, when you go back and look at the side he captained in England Academy, the majority of those player are now playing every week in SL, he`s ready now IMO and I think we are going to see him in the side.'"
Mainly because SO was not his main position so a gradual placement would help imho. Also don’t think Miller has lost his place yet.

| Given that Walker took on the role of leading the team on Saturday, and did it superbly… I think he deserves to retain the role… if Miller is fit (and willing to play) then I have Miller and Walker vs Saints… if Miller and Lino are fit Lino on the bench in place of Bowes in the squad… Kaye starting dummy half
Although Batch did ok I think he must move in a notch and play right edge forward… and I would start Whitbread at loose against Saints
It’s fun this… I should be head coach

Lino on the bench to play hooker? I wouldn't do that.
Assuming Hood is injured I'd play Bowes from the start at 9 and jeep Kay on the bench to switch over.

Agree, one thing that really got me annoyed about Chester was that he was insistent on playing players out of position to fill gaps.
We need a 9 to step into Hoods shoes. Bowes is a 9 - it’s that simple. Chester would end up playing Crowther there in this exact scenario (not knocking Crowther btw). It used to drive me barmy but it appears that Poching is more trusting of the deeper echelons of his squad.

Depends what you mean by out of position.
Batchelor did a great job on Saturday but he’s not just out of position but it is clearly not his best position and probably never will be.
Players like Bowes and especially Walker are far more fluid. For Walker this is the opportunity to finally nail down a position. If he doesn’t grab the HB role this time he will be utility forever, not a bad thing just the reality.
What I’m saying is that it’s ok in an emergency - Batch or as a genuine trial - Walker.
What CC and so many other coaches get wrong is that they won’t back down when they are wrong.
Jowitt is a perfect example. He looked like a play anywhere person and SO looked well within his reach. I was an advocate myself but I was wrong and it soon became obvious. Yet CC decided to play him almost anywhere but FB whilst favouring inferior players, it’s that I don’t get, it’s self destructive.
Some players are not in their best positions, ones plonked on them as kids but most are. It takes a keen eye and patience to spot them and transform them but I wouldn’t want to stop coaches trying, just know when you’re wrong.
Kay looks like a right decision but then there was history there.

Get shut ASAP, especially after today’s shambles of a performance. Clear as day he’s got no interest in being here

| I’ll admit to being miffed that Walker got dropped for Miller but a real captain’s knock today, great performance from the skipper and the team.

Above is exactly his point, and what has having a season ticket got to do with posting on here?
