I don't think he should be sacked...

But I think it's time for DA to make some positional changes ;-)

yes this is a serious question as some guys on here are still picking finch as half back in their team. i feel like i am in the twighlight zone. i just want the finch supporters to put their hand up, so i can have a guide on who the morons on this forum are.

Sacked...if he was in his usual middle of the road form I'd keep at 6 or 14...but he's in diabolical form, and it's worse because he's thoroughly average to start with

LOL, fair enough, personally I feel it goes without saying Finch should have been punted a long time ago. :lol:

Send him to Wenty and make him play 80 minutes in number 12.

We're stuck with him, (thanks to whoever's idea it was to sign him), so we need to find somewhere for him I guess. Not halfback!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's a hard one because so much of the pre season prep revolves around the 7.

We all know why we were farked last year after Timmy hit the toe.

It would be hard to pump him now but in saying that surely there are contingencies in place if Finch were to be ruled out with a season ender.

Finch = 14.

Why mate?

What would he possibly offer as a reserve hooker?

Slow service? Poor passing? No pace or running game? Poor kicking options? Slow off the ground in defence?

What game scenario would you think to yourself - hey there's twenty to go, we need those options to win this game?

He needs to go. Hopefully he will spit the dummy and look elsewhere.

Panthers are always desperate for halves. Maybe we could swap him for a couple of good young forwards and create a win-win situation?

We need to have a replacement before we can sack him... it's not that easy

Hell I'll put my hand up...can't do much worse. And that's the thing, can we do worse than Finch at 7? Aside from a ridiculous selection like a prop, I don't think we can at the moment

why? because in an ideal world Finch would be playing for Wenty and Matt Keating would be on for 80 minutes meaning that we can probably carry a 4th sizeable and mobile player but the problem is that Matt's dummy half service appears to be struggling the more game time he plays used..if you think that Kinga and Robson are options than we're probably going worrse than you think.

give me a capable 7 and 9 who will play for 80 minutes and i mean compete for 80 minutes and I'll personaly throw a wenty jersey at Finch.
