Bateman will be 13 IMO

Almost certainly.

It's no coincidence that Rocky's best performance for us came when he was drafted in to play stand off at the last minute. A good run at stand off would see him improve further but I can't see this happening unless we lose two of Smith, Williams and Powell to injury for a while.

Bateman will be 13 IMO

Almost certainly.

I also agree Bateman has the "engine"to perform for 80 mins at 13 and more importantly has the rugby brain to follow in Lockers footsteps.
