[QUOTE="Saint Matt, post: 860954, member: 68837"] I actually see 10 as a bit of a worry for us. A midfield of Farrell, Teo and Davies is too one dimensional IMO, they're all looking for inside shoulders more often than not. I thought Davies was outstanding on Saturday mind, involved in everything the Lions did well. A form Sexton would balance that out but he's just not doing the basics well enough, even on Saturday he throws a murder of a pass in the build up to the last try in good ball. I'd have given him 40 minutes on Tuesday, personally, just to see if he can find some degree of form. The question is, do you risk it and just hope it clicks? Only other big calls IMO are hooker and back row. Best is in a similar position to Sexton. I'd consider moving O'Brien to 6 and Warbuton in at 7 to slow their ball down a bit but again, he's lacking in match fitness. [/QUOTE]
