Chill everyone, Fra 23 is in the bag, Manu's on his way back! Salsa dancing FFS, the game's gone soft.
Ref Barbeary, the great unknown is his set piece ability. He's always said he wants to be a hooker and if the set piece stacks up then with his other attributes he's potential world class there. Don't think his ceiling's quite as high at 8. But either way he surely has a heck of a future.
On locks I'm generally a fan of the bigger and horribler the better - a good big one will always beat a good little one. Attwood's always been a big unit with a bit of an edge, the kind of aggression you can't teach. But he's also evolved his game at Bristol and is playing some fantastic stuff. Definitely one of the form players in the country. Far worse players have picked up far more caps.
