Purdo should replace him or at least defend next to him from a second row position to manage him

Clubb has been terrible all year, he can't tackle, he gives away too many penalties, and he is always out of position. Mac needs to drop him!

Lamont should replace him

We've got noone to replace him, and he has moments of real quality in most games, but having seen the tries on Sky again yesterday he was bad for one and unacceptably lazy for the other. We need a captain out their giving him an almight b****cking if he does that again. Completely disinterested in defence at times.

I don't know how you can call him disinterested in defence - if anything he is too interested in defending and putting in a big hit. I think saying that he is useless in defence would be closer to the mark.

Being interested in defence is not about flying out of the line and nailing someone. Its about being focussed on holding your place in the line and stopping the attacker, not standing there watching an attacker run at you and letting him break your line unchallenged! Or when you lose posession just standing there and watching them pick the ball up first and run away unopposed. Its laziness.

Clubb is perfectly adequate in his positioning, the problems begin when he actually has to stop the player.
