Switch Moore and Tatafu, consider Whits and or Charles for succession

Not enough room on the bench for four backs, pick another lock

[Burgs]

"pick another lock "

I'd consider Elsom for that duel cover role like McCalman last season and pick a Hodgson or Brown, only way I can see him into the 22 actually.

[zimeric]

in that case id drop barnes and add Daley

[Burgs]

One of the leading Lock/Backrow options going around
