As Moore only played 4 games are you saying we have been short all season ? johnston is inconsistent but his pairing with Murrell is ok with me with Connor and kids in reserve.Are you saying Johnston is not the answer and needs replacing ?

I'm not saying Johno needs replacing but he's too inconsistent, I think on his day he's fantastic but for every great game he has he's guaranteed to have 1 alright game and 1 bad game. Assuming we'll be sticking with Murrell at half back for at least another season we need to bring someone else in to be his regular partner.

another local lad also is the loan signing with no call back.

Welcome on board Brandon.
Give it your best shot and wear the blue and white with some pride that's all we ask.

We're in desperate need of a halfback

Out of interest does anyone know what the win ratio for the Murrell and Johnston half back partnership is this season?

Wins in the tackling department Murrell by a mile.
I love Johno to bits when he hits form and weaves his magic on attack but worry whenever he's defending close to the line, it's not a fault as such, just hasn't got the size when the bigger lads crash through.

Good signing - played some good rugby against us - playing Fev showed that we needed to replace Luke in the squad - albeit the young guns coming through have shown up well this year

Our pack could do with more controlled power and aggression for the season run in so.....

A young local prop forward with size and power, on season loan and no DR what's not to like.

Thank you.

When you consider one of those losses was against Toulouse thats really not a bad record yet RM feels the need to tinker with the most important positions in the team on a regular basis.
