[QUOTE="oj121, post: 931805, member: 54867"] Backs need service. There was a blockage in the service with our 9 making Laidlaw look like a machine gunner. Slow, ponderous, lacking in vision. Young stepped in at 9 when Davies got caught in a ruck and magically a try appeared through quick service. Webb is our best 9 by miles. He is not available. Davies isnt even the best 9 at his club! Got a wales cap via the Scarlets effect and has been stealing them since. He is the worst starting 9 out of the 4 home regions(Rhodri at the Dragons offers more). I feel Habberfield is better at the Ospreys and Williamsx2 are both years ahead at the Blues. Beard was poor other than a maul steal. Again why is he being favoured when Seb Davies only seems to get games out of position? Hill really needs to start as even though he is no giant he definately sorts our lineout. I dont know why but when he is on it is so much more solid. I do find it hard to slate the backs too much when they were fed such ponderous ball. I just dont get it. It would be like having a go at a toddler for being cr#p at walking when they hadnt learnt how to do it yet. If Howley knows nothing else surely it is sniping attacking 9 play? [/QUOTE]
