That would give us the ability to bring in two overseas front rows and a second row
The resting comment about Dwyer seems that he is now out of the picture and McNamara likely to get a run now at nine

The pair of them certainly seem to work and compliment each other, if we can keep Clifford for next season and they continue improving the partnership it would be hard to argue against them being one of the best pairings in SL next year.

They are both a genuine threat with their passing, kicking and running individually or when linking up along with Hoy.

They are a pleasure to watch.

With results as they have been across SL I wouldn't like to predict anything as teams you'd expect to see win when looking at fixtures haven't. The teams above us will all lose points between now and end of the season as no doubt we will but it gives up a chance and something to aim for however slim that might be.

I said at half time to the guy next to me that if we lose the game I would be disappointed but would have no real complaints as the effort had been unreal in that first 40mins and thoroughly enjoyed it. When Bell scored in the 2nd we all must have had a thought of he we go St's are going to get on a roll but then to reply with another score ourselves I was pretty confident we had the resolve and attitude to see out the game.

That is a massive plus and shows the complete change within the club brought about by TS.

I have to say I am now back to looking forward to going to games rather than trudging to them under sufferance.

As an aside it was nice to see Wellens give credit to us for a deserved win which makes a change for an opposing Coach.
