Yeah, I think Murray looks the obvious choice to replace Crichton too.For me replacing Angus isn’t the biggest problem. He runs good lines and you can groom plenty of second rowers to do the same job that he does. In fact I’m pretty sure Cameron Murray is a straight slot in. Which would allow Fuimaono or Britt or even Sironen to compete for that bench role.
For me the biggest problem is locking up the talent we already have. Cook, Graham, Hiroti and Murray are all coming off contract next year and all of these players will be vital for us as a team moving forward. Forget recruiting a second rower if it’s gonna stop us from resigning Cook or Murray. Cook has been at integral part of our 2018 campaign and he’s due for a massive pay upgrade which he definitely deserves.
