You've got a coach that preferred to play an unfit bang average Greg Richards rather than debut Zac Fishwick.

He may not be the squad rotator you believe he is.

Depends how Smith wants to use Lovodua, but sayhe uses him as a SR/LF, could we see Balmforth/Dwyer share 9 to start the season

doubt it
As ComeOnYouUll said its more than likely we will see the old guard Houghton as the starting nine and Taylor in the front row
Dwyer will then be coming off the bench.
Not what we want to see but its the way i also think Smith will go.
Balmforth likely to go out on loan
