Originally I wanted Rankin & Miller as I think they will compliment each other well. That said Miller hasn't really forced himself into the side yet and Horne on form is a better player. Either way Rankin has to play.

Slightly harsh on Miller perhaps as he hasn't had big minutes with the first teamers.

Agreed that Rankin self-selects. Would probably go with Horne as it stands.

I wonder what the club's long term plans are for HTW? Yeaman was getting first team football from his age. I know scrum half is a different proposition, but in terms of judging his readiness/potential do the club see him stepping up in 1 year, or 3, for example?

Well lets hope he manages to find it

miller obviously. Not seen rankin

He's been fast tracked already so it would suggest they rate him highly and are looking to put gametime into him. Maybe a CC match against a lower league side and then possibly a SL game at some stage. Still has some developing physically to do. I would imagine they would like him ready for 2016. 2015 seems optimistic to me.

We're heading toward relegation seasons. If we're putting in very young rookies, we'd need to be comfortably away from that zone.
