Does that suggest he's been dropped, or is he injured/rested?

Didn't say if he was rested, just says misses out. No idea which it is.

If recent performances are anything to judge on I would say dropped isnt unlikely...doesnt look like half the player he was last year, playing far less minutes & not making the yardage he used to

Shaul
Naughton

Lineham
Abdull
Sneyd
Paea
Houghton
Watts
Minichiello
Thompson
Westerman

Hadley

Feka
Rankin

I imagine he's been dropped given what Cunningham said in the local press this week. Turner was dropped last week, Cunningham stating that Jones was brought in to 'shore up' that side.

Amor needs to bulk up. He looks tiny this season.

He's never been the biggest of players but he had great footwork for a prop that got him those extra meters. I commented on his footwork when he first come. It's like a little shuffle thing just before he hits the line.

I think he lost this when he did his knee last year. He never really had it again when he came back so maybe it's the knee causing this.

I think it's pretty harsh dropping kyle tbh. I admit he's not playing well at all and been a shadow of last year but he always puts in 100% and always there to take the ball up and tackle. Let's be honest, the have been other forwards this year that have been much worse than kyle.

Richards was awful for about a month, non stop pens and making mistakes but stayed in 17. Mose has been woeful in 80% of the games this year and very very rare was getting over 7 carries a game but stayed in the 17.

Luke walsh is playing like he's never played rugby before and he's still there. Burns is just as bad as walsh but still there.

Has it took KC until the super 8s to notice Jordan Turner can't tackle ? I could have told him that 3 years ago. I think KC has looked at that left edge and had to make a decision on Turner or Walsh as those two are up there with the worst defenders ive ever seen and teams know this and attack them. They both miss about 5 tackles each which is aprox 10 misses on one edge!
