The thing is. Listening to Jordan Lane’s interviews and he realises he’s not doing the things he was a couple of years ago and knows he is making mistakes.

At least he isn’t arrogant enough to think I am in the team and playing okay.

But then you would think that taking so few carries, every week, would make him doubly determined to get more involved in the next match but it doesn’t seem to change? Is that down to the way we play?

I had such high hopes for him, but he may be one of those players that flatter to deceive, when they break into the team and may have reached his level. Callum Lancaster was the same, a winger that scored prolifically, when he came through but never went anywhere. I do hope Lane does find his best form, it can only be a good thing if so, but, as we have little option to replace him, it is an obvious weakness in the fabric of that edge that good teams exploit.

I don't mind Lane as a squad member, should be cheap and like Fash seems not get injured too much and can play big minutes, but he shouldn't be a starter when everyone else is fit.

Agreed, Fash and Lane have a place in the 17, but shouldn't have the 12&13 shirts if we're to challenge for the top 4
