    If only Ripia's hands were as quick on the field!

    Stannard will do well and deserves a shot, we just need to learn to win the close ones, especially at home.

    Otherwise, as mentioned, the Japanese league finishes in Feb and the following could be options:

    Stephen Brett, David Hill, Peter Grant, Mike Delany

    or a very left field selection - get Darryn Lockyer for 1 year

    Don't know who Delany is, but I think the other 3 are excluded based on the fact we've got our Marquee player.

    Lets not make excuses for this bloke. He's a low life that's stolen from his mates.I for one couldn't care less what happens to him, I hope the Police sort him out and he never surfaces in Rugby again. This will have little effect on the team who are far better off without him on the books.

    Thank you for the threads on Ben Seymour.

    I doubt we will get any favours from the ARU for dispensations, so Stannard and Seymour appear to be our fly half options with young Goodwin sneaking a bit of game time here and there.

    With our forward pack looking good, we will survive and still have a crack at the finals.

    Thinking outside the square a bit, as it is a long season, what about Sheppard slotting in evey now and then, he may have lost a bit of pace over the years but has a decent boot and can read the game well?

    Just had that conversation at work Tazzman - I reckon he would take the ball to the line very well and with his boot and a bit of training, might be able to control the game

    when they finally put Chucky in at #10, he was the best of the lot - and didn't worry about his "brand" -- just did the bizzo
    Sheehan and Chucky - good combo - have faith in them, the WF have always chased these other guys and none have set the world on fire
    Turner - he's proven, and Seymour - now he's in the firing line - can he or can't he?
