[QUOTE="Peat, post: 541846, member: 42330"] Oh gods don't remind me about that nomination. I went for one 10/12, and was going to pick Farrell until I remembered that Twelvetrees has far more natural talent, just a matter of giving him international experience. As for Ashton, if he's not getting on the end of breaks he's not anything really, and there's not a lot kind to be said about his defence. This said - if Farrell improves, he's got the icewater needed for this level, and in a functioning backline Ashton can be deadly. But for now, I'm hoping they'll be overtaken by players with more potential. I've gotta say, it looks promising. But there's a lot of young kids who need to put in two years of solid performances before I start to get very excited. Ford was in my squad - completely agree with you there. I can believe there will be better players than all of our scrum-halves, but am not optimistic. I can't see the prospects who look to me like they have it. Maybe Dan Robson. Daly's a class act but needs to fix his defence and has two class acts ahead of him. As for SArmitage... would be good, but until he does, I'm not considering him. [/QUOTE]
