A prop but only a teenager. So not really surprising if he is eased in elsewhere. We did the same with other's. Eastmond lomax Started on the wing. Clough at second row. Long did not play seven straight away.

Um, being a teenager is irrelevant though isn't it? It's his size and physical strength that matter.

We're likely to line up with only one half back again.

Cas as follows:

1. Richard Owen, 2. Justin Carney, 3. Michael Shenton, 5. Kirk Dixon, 6. Rangi Chase, 7. Jamie Ellis, 8. Jonathan Walker, 9. Daryl Clark, 10. Craig Huby, 12. Weller Hauraki, 13. Grant Millington, 15. Adam Milner, 16. Nathan Massey, 17. Oliver Holmes, 18. Jordan Thompson, 19. Jordan Tansey, 25.Keith Mason, 27, Ryan Boyle, 29. Ben Davies

19. Jordan Tansey
1. Richard Owen
3. Michael Shenton
5. Kirk Dixon
2. Justin The Beast
12. Weller Hauraki (Extra Back Rower)
6. Rangi Chase
8. Jonathan Walker
15. Adam Milner
25. Keith Mason
13. Grant MIllington
17. Oliver Holmes
16. Nathan Massey

10. Craig Hugby
9. Daryl Clark
18. Jordan Thompson
27 Ryan Boyle/ 29 Ben Davies.

I very much doubt Powell will reintroduce Jamie Ellis, After 2 wins without him.

His response was, because, size and physical strength come with age. He will not be physically at his peak for a few years yet.

My first. Instinct was to reply but then I remembered it would just start another response where individual words are picked out to argue a semantic point rather than taking the comment as a whole into account. So I thought better of it and chose sleep instead. The general thrust was that it's not unusual for people on debut ( generally speaking in the game of rl these are teenagers) to be debut out of position to ease them in. Hence the examples given.

Whilst Brown has made some erratic choices. They are not all erratic and playing a debutant in a mildly different role is not an erratic choice. Not everything he does is gold. Not everything he does is a mistake. But I'm sure I've now included enough words for you to argue semantics all day long with me.

You cant call Nathan on this one. Andy Platt started in the centre. It makes sense to let the dog see the rabbit first.
