[QUOTE="dullonien, post: 525159, member: 13739"] That ESPN team is laughable. Looks like they only watched the Premiership games, then realised that and randomly threw in some Pro12 players. Ferris is usually a good shout at 6, and he had an impact on the weekend, but not enough to be the form 6 of the weekend surely. Jarvis being there is the biggest joke. Not all that sure about Court either. Again he had an impact, but against a very young tighthead in Joe Rees. Whilst there's a possibility that Bevington only looks good with Adam at 3, I don't think I believe it. He's looked more than capable in all of his other games in previous seasons, and not all of them have been with Adam at 3, especially some of his caps with Wales. Jarvis is an ok backup to have, he's not as bad a scrummager as some tightheads in the Pro12, but he's far from good, and Adam Jones will highlight that when he returns. I feel that this situation is similar to Gethin Jenkins looking bad at the end of last season, its difficult for a looshead to hold his side of the scrum when the tighthead is struggling, which in turn puts the hooker under pressure from the tightead side.
