Always depends on what you have coming through, doesn't it?Some of the names I've seen put forward as internal alternatives fall short in my opinion. Tindall, despite his strength and speed, has some fundamental weaknesses of a coach killing nature; Edwards and Simpson are both centres and also very young. Loan spells in the championship would be better for them. Other than that you are delving straight into the academy. As long as he doesn't get in the way of priority recruitment in the pack I'm OK with it.
