Where's this creative 13 coming from?,maybe i've been living in a time warp and he's actaully been playing that role at Cas and I've dreamed that Matterson used him as out side running second rower?
He's done nothing over the last two years to warrant a place as a creative 13,in fact I wouldn't even have in the 13.

13 for me, needs hands on the ball. He has the skill to be hitting the wide runners, 2nd row, centre, wing and is big enough and mobile enough to punch holes in opposition defenive line wide out. Whilst agars head coach though he'll just be another battering ram.

on a daily basis is not good for any sportsman.

Correct. And he played his best games out wide - like a second centre. Once he was used as a bulldozer up the middle, he never looked the same.

To be fair to the lad, he really hasn't looked the same player since Gilmour gave him a tap round the head the other year. Playing him in the middle wont get you anywhere either, if anything the lad at this point in his career he is a centre, that's essentially where he played during his best games at Cas.

Jesus dont say that....Agar will pick him there.

fwiw i think the lad did ok in parts last night, did some good tackling and when he did drift to the outside looked to put some decent balls out, yes he still looks as though hes finding his feet with his new team mates,but he is a num 13 and really should be played there, i believe given a chance he will become a very good player,
