@will_owen9 Needs a season at the dragons, he was indestructible for us. Cap it all off with a final year where it began. He should grow his hair out too... Hang around the wide channels. Be his own tribute act.
@Big_Al_1963@dragonsrfc He's been outstanding. The group of young players that are playing now or coming through are the most promising I can remember. If only we had a few more of the quality of beddall and Morris at tighthead and lock we'd be looking really good.
Lack of props might kill progress.
@Jonathan1370164 They brought on Bealham at tighthead, whereas we had our fourth or fifth choice loose head (great potential but only second appearance), with a debutant tighthead... Add in the loss of Douglas' weight in the second row and it's no wonder the scrum creaked.
@leclare_6@dragonsrfc@connachtrugby@URCOfficial I'm excited to see what impact the front row can have off the bench... Potentially more carrying than anything else we've had this season. Also won't hurt if Hunt doesn't have to play almost the full eighty again.
@VoyleNick@leclare_6 Yeah, worth a look. Hopefully Paea back before long... But again, we're shuffling players to try and make things happen rather than attacking shape being improved at a higher level.
@leclare_6@VoyleNick Even with players like Martin getting us on the front foot more often than previous seasons we don't stress defences often enough. Change is needed. At this point we can't afford to be this bad.
@leclare_6 Still not a high quality enough front 3. Or big enough front 5 for that matter, good as the locks are. Quality is getting better across the squad but there are still issues that are going to stall progress. 2 from 4 would be promising. 3 from 4 would be incredible.
@willcritchlow@dougall There's a growing group of rugby analysts (squidge rugby and Sam Larner being two I follow). One issue that seems to hold them back is rights to the images - some of the controlling bodies don't seem to see the potential benefit.
