Do seem to be lacking in depth- something we have possessed in years past. Think Mataora can wreck havoc as a second rower (back to his best position). We still lack in some areas, and as I mentioned depth is obviously one of them. Hooker may still be our Achilles heel, however if Stuart comes to the helm we know he is a fan of McCrone being used in dummy half and I have no doubts Macca can become a decent one at that. There certainly is no guarantee we will see Campese play out a full season, nor Dugan. With a starting 17 like that, however the only way a team should falter is through injuries or poor coaching. I'd have no qualms in seeing Williams demoted back to Mounties, with Campese and McCrone in the halves and Buttriss/McIllwrick sharing hooking duties.
Obviously there remains uncertainty as to whether or not Campese will return, whether Berrigan will continue on, whilst I wouldn't mind betting we will be signing a dummy half.
Coach must be one Ricky Stuart.
