...Man, we're the Dragons...
I am starting to lean towards this too. Stig was pretty underwhelming after his first few games and mullen is showing more and more every week that he needs a dominant half next to him. For all his flaws one thing gids does well is get busy and take pressure off mullen, if WB can put method to his madness than he could turn out a much better version of hornby (i know its been said a thousand times). With that spine there is enough polish (mullen/boyd) outside gids for him to keep it simple and play to his strengths.
On paper that spine looks brilliant, the trick will be getting them all firing consistantly (bedsy's age, Mullo's Brain, Gidleys ability) but all the tools are there and we have the best carpenter since Jesus so i don't see why it can't happen.
I need to relax, bit too excited for this early in the pre season.
