unless hull are working behind the scenes,its disappointing that we seem no nearer to getting a young successor to long or even getting a competent reserve scrum half.richard horne is a no no at 7.i am not a pessimist usually,but i fear the worst for the rest of the season.hope im wrong.

Oh do shut up.....wasnt at fault for anything tonight....he had to take the centre and did wqell later on when cutting out the pass to the wing...unlike the other winger who was caught out twice within 5mins....but people dont notice him do they.


In reply to the poster....we eith put Tansey or Berro at 7 or pay off Cusack and see if we can get a 7 from oz and under cap.

Could be a blessing in disguise, if we do the right thing and play tansey in the halves. Whiting to fullback in the interim.

I agree with that.....

We will know Agars intention next week, if he goes with Horne & Washy I am afraid that is curtains on our season...

Looks like we'll have our 2009 half back options available for the rest of the season

As much has long has achieved in the game, for us he's been largely disappointing when he has played and injured half of the time anyway. I'm sure he is influential in other ways but he's only really shone in 2 or 3 games

Got to get a loan signing in. How, who, i dont know but as a club something needs doing and fast. I like the pay of Cusack idea but i dont think he will.

Edit. Just seen Hutchies post, He's already here - Webbo! Ta ta Cusack!

Why would we need to pay cusack off to play webbo? Hasn't he got a uk passport and he was playing in uk before 2007.

Even better! Wont happen though, Its too obvious

Eight overseas players, not good.

According to Webbo after the match Rich Horne is still some way off playing. We could always go for "the best no 7 in the city" on loan - sorry only kidding!!

Unless Williams is ready it has to be tansey.

Agar said on radio he is back in contention

fecking 'ell does that mean he will be strapped up and on the needle...gets worse this

Yeah, he's the only player in the squad to bomb a try this season.

With Fitz out last night, why didn't Agar try Hall at off half and move Washy to loose?
I think even the most anti Hall posters agree that his defence is the worry, but he is dangerous with the ball in his hands and not being exposed on the flanks he would be less exposed in the middle. Even at defensive scrums we could put him at loose to stop him being exposed.

Tansey /Beriganin the halfs with Washy spelling at 9. It all depends on Horne's fitness i guess.
