Usually i'd think Berro could play 80 so would go with Washy but in this instance i think Berro will play 40-50 so think we need to carry the specialist replacement.

cant see him starting to be honest

Well well well , wouldnt have guesses the team in a month of sundays

Washy could be used to spell Berro - didn't he have some game time at 9 in the trials ?

Dont think he will be in the 17 tbh

Washy not been in the 17 would not surprise me, Agar could well end up losing us two top young players in Hall and Washy with the way he has used them. Washbrook should be our starting 13 nevermind struggling to make the bench and Hall should be in the centres with Yeaman. Hall did far more last year than Turner did at Saford.

Agree with all of that.

Hal has so much potential its scary. People say about his defence but every time he has the ball he looks so dangerous. At the end of the day it comes down to do you want your to score tries and create for others or do you want yor to be a strong defender. Sadly RA imo always goes for the defence.

Indeed. A very odd selection considering the 2 warm-up matches. I knew Agar wouldn't have the balls to not play one of his senior props though.

Wonder what time the Agar out thread will get posted

Well if we don't win the forward battle because he doesn't have the strenght of character to drop one of Radford,Dowes or Cusack and would rather weaken our hitting power by dropping Moa because it's easier then I will probably start it straight after the saints game.
