Fwiw I agree with you. I think Griffin's future is in the second row, it just suits his attributes better imo, and we saw the benefit of having a top class ball handling centre with Faraimo's try. Not sure Griffin would have been able to make that pass. He got through a mountain of work again today. 22 carries for 140 metres.

Obviously he will do a job in the centre when we need him there, but he has the size to play further in field and that little extra footwork and speed make him really dangerous against bigger, less agile defenders.

I thought all of our starting back line were great tonight. Faraimo, Tuimavave, Griffin and even Logan to a degree all stepped up and did a lot of hard work. We needed them to take the slack with us having such a weakened pack, and they rose to the challenge.

Wynne looks so comfortable at this level, hard to believe he has only just turned 18. Brown was also really impressive. When most props first play in the first team they are really just making up the numbers. You just want them to make their tackles, keep hold of the ball, and just take a bit of work off the senior guys. But Brown actually looked imposing out there. He hit hard, he was a handful, and he even has a bit of footwork. Really looking forward to see how he develops. He could be anything.

It wasn't a perfect performance by any means, and we rode our luck massively towards the end. But it was a performance full of character. If we can find the same effort and enthusiasm when we have a few more of our first choice 17 on the field then we won't lose many.

Just try and get something right for a change.
We'll leave it at that.
