Quote: Jake the Peg "abdul is nowhere near fit or physically strong enough to play 13 for long minutes. I can't see where we can use him effectively tbh as he's a waste of a bench spot and puts too much pressure on the rest of the forwards to do long stints for me. He either stats at 6 or isn't in the 17 IMO'"
I'd have to agree with this, if Pryce is the form half or not injured then Abdul shouldn't be in the 17 unless we are down to bare bones and vice versa.
He has to step up in his fitness for one thing and his tackling a big notch if he is to be even remotely considered at 13, as I've always said, he's not a 13 for me, nor should we be trying to turn him into something he is not.
We've been after a long term home grown half that is of notable quality for years, Horne was that player so why can't Addul be also? Christ when Pryce is done after this year then what, we look for a replacement, move Carlos there after not playing 6 for over a year and all the while Abdul rotting because others in the squad are already better/more suited in the 13 position.
