Forber is out for at least another six weeks!

that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

Do you want Farrimond making 40 tackles a game? Obviously he'll step in there from time to time, as all halves do, but as a full-time job??

If someone has to play hooker instead of Brad it would be Hampshire or Keighran for me. Farrimond is a great prospect, but after 3 games to chuck him in at hooker is asking too much, he looked very much smaller than most on Friday.

They will probably play another Prop for defence and get Farrimond to distribute the ball at dummy half.

That makes some sense. He's more experienced. Its a tricky one for sure, and would have been anyway if O'Neil is indeed already out injured.

I'd say a short term loan deal might be in order here if ONeil's out for more than a week or so.

I think that is more likely lp, maybe even with Nsemba/Walters as 2nd row and Farrell as "emergency" hooker with Farrimond/Smith/French rotating at dummy half. That gives us more props on the bench still.

I see that saints are appealing and we're not. You can guess what happens next.

Stop messing with the team. Play Ratchford in his natural position at hooker or slip Rocky in there.
