This should spell the end of Rowe surely?

Hopefully, I don't see any use for him.
Hitchcox has shown far more than Rowe already, both as a winger a fullback.
However, Hitchy is off contract at the end of this year while Rowe we still have for 2015.
Hopefully Hitchcox gets an extension and Rowe moves on at the end of next year.
 
Those forwards look really good. I'm happy Gavet is gone. I rate him but he isn't worth persisting with because he isn't that good.

The backs though are probably really going to struggle. Akauola and Paterson are a major concern and Lawrence and Richards aren't exactly rock solid. Maybe those halves are the best combination we have and it will be interesting how they perform. Hitchcox over Rowe is the right decision.
 
Don't expect many changes to that team for the last game either if no more injuries.

I still shake my head about injuries? Nearly every game now we lose a couple more players to injury.

Surely nobody still thinks it's just bad luck.

Do some of you people listen to anything other people tell you?

Salary Cap, Salary Cap. etc etc.

We cannot field any other players otherwise we will be breaking the, you know, Salary Cap!!!!!
 
All I can say is thank God Richards is back! At least he can kick goals, providing we actually score any tries of course.
 
When a side is forced to name two backrowers in the three-quarter line it's pretty obvious the 2nd tier salary cap needs work.

Personally I'd swap Thompson and Paterson. Thompson at least has more experience in the centres having played there when he was younger and up at the Titans. He's been poor there too but he's got more experience defending there than Paterson.

We're supposed to have an exemption this week as neither side can make the semis. I was hoping to see some young talent in the centres.
