Dunno, unless they think maybe Faamausili can play on the edge perhaps?

We are definitely a quality backrower short. Maybe plans are afoot to recruit one?

There was a post a little while ago about a “surprise” re who could / would play edge suggesting someone from within the squad and most likely not Bird.

Looking at his body shape, my guess is Faamausili and perhaps even more likely in light of the Alvaro signing...

We need Faamausili in the prop rotation and I'm fairly sure that's where Griffin will select him to play:

Vaughan
McInnes
Kerr
Sims
Ford
Fuimaono

Bench
Faamausili
Alvaro
Lawrie
Bird

Ford will no be in the starting side.

Agree that Ford could be a very good 13 but who plays on the edges? T.Sims and ....

Bird

For me, this is the most important (and at the same time disturbing) message in the whole article:

"Cam has trained exclusively at hooker, and I tell you what his development in the position even in a short period of time has gone through the roof".

Nothing more needs to be added really.............oh those wasted years!!!

How many players are in the same boat? The whole squad of 30 I would say

Bennett had to devise new attacking combinations and defensive structures to suit the skill set of the players he inherited. In addition he recruited players that had what he deemed necessary to do the job. In my book, Griffin is doing the same only he has a much bigger job to do.

I know this is a bit OT, could Kerr not play back row? Did he not grow up playing centre or wing? I could be wrong

I think you may be on the money.
He is quicker than the other props and he has some footwork.

...ala Scott Gourley style..i could see that too!

Oh for the days of Gourley, Wynn, Jansen

I think Hosty had that in him and I am still pissed off he was let go.

I agree Faamausili is valuable at prop but Fui is no full time lock imo...

We can only hope so as that would mean we should see the improvement across the board we suspect will happen post McFailure...

We know that if they aren’t tabling a deal to McInness, that can mean only one thing..

Fui, Ford and Bird can rotate.

Maybe not Possum as Bennett had to recruit quite a few first graders to implement his structurers. Hook is more or less bringing in bench players apart from Bird. Maybe he is happy with what he has in most positions.
