OK they are somewhat inexperienced but all have had 3 years in S14 now (bar hockings, Wykes) and I personally havnt seen much improvement come scrum time!!!
I believe it comes down to a coaching/ technique issue were these guys are just not improving at scrum time.... the worst thing that happened to force over the last three years is losing Ben Darwin as forwards coach (I honestly believe we wouldnt be having this conversation if he had spent 3 years shaping our forwards.)
Maybe it is time to recruit a solid experienced scrummager for next season into our front row to show and teach the rest how its done...
