So we lose Paea but gain Taylor to go alongside Watts, Green and Bowden and possibly Feka if theres room on the cap. Ellis was possibly moving into the front row too but personally i wouldnt include him any of the pack as theres a big question mark on if he'll even be playing next year.

To me this still looks light and will have the same failings as this year. Green and Bowden have had their chances and for me dont cut it so we need one maybe two new forwards

I would have thought even you must know that would not be possible........yet again?

I'm pretty sure Ellis will play again, but there's also the option of Pritchard up front too (not ideal but possible).

It would be an absolute waste of a wide running second row to play him at prop.

Tbh, I think Chris Green has been ok since coming back from injury. Seems to be running with a bit more purpose. Still think for his size and frame he could add some more bulk

This whole bash green thing is getting monotonous. Hes been pretty good for a while now.
Bowden had been decent for the previous weeks also.
watts n taylor do big mins. Around that we'll do fine with ellis bowden green,possibly feka and even thompson imo.Not sure on how BTW been going?

yep imo green has gone ok still think Bowden needs to run his weight but hes still young, think ellis will move up to spell the props and hopefully feka and btw will be around so imo well covered for props

BTW played for Oxford last week

Bowdens defence is top notch. Players stop like theyve hit a wall. Just offence is very basic. But had been better of late. Green had top metres per carry again the other night. Not an unfamiliar tale this yr. Also ive noticed him pop some outrageously good offloads out last few games. His height and frame always meant he was going to take a while to fill it out and get some physical dominance in his game. Hes getting there imo.
also noticed in 17 games hes made 2 errors and conceded 2 pens. Decent and useful stats

agree green has improved this year and doesn't deserve some of the flak he gets,
