Looks good to me!

We may have a pretty much all-foreign forward pack, but we've got an all English back line at least! (In fact, will we have any foreign backs next year?)

Thats exactly the team i'd play. (unless we use Washy at 6)

Excellent debut and he'll be even better next season.

I was very confused though during the second half when Agar took both him and Moa off at virtually the same time. Surely you should have at least one of the big guys on the pitch at all times?

I think this time (for a change) Agar got it right. He did have a reduced rotation due to early loss of Calderwood. I thought Hame did superbly for a guy who hasn't played for nearly a year. Second row looks like the ticket for him to me so get Sam signed.

Moa, Manu and Lauaki reminded me of the 3 brothers in the film Slap shot. The aggression was good to see. Many forwards next season will think twice when they see a snalrling Lauaki rummbling towards them. I hope O'meley plays the same way.
