There's also Jowett to throw into the mix

Also a possibility of Holmes in the halves an Wynne at full back.

I's be interested to see what the "other direction" is next year if we don't think Segeyaro is needed. He's the best dummy half we've had in years.

Disappointing to lose Segeyaro for the season if confirmed it might offer a lifeline to Patton.

I'm not big fan of Patton and wouldn't be offering him a new deal but let's not forget he was in the side when we went on our best run of form. I'm not sure I buy this 'bad apple' gone and suddenly we are transformed. There was a collective change of attitude and desire on Sunday and obviously Dec needs to buy into that if he returns.

Greenwood has coached Dec all season, would he really have kept picking him if he was such a 'bad apple' in the squad. Yes he is inconsistent, hot headed and yes he can overplay but I'm not sure restructuring the spine of the side to avoid playing him is necessarily the best option either.

There is a lot sound reasoning and common sense in that quote. I'm getting worried you're morphing into Bullseye!

With Segeyaro being out it opens the door for Patton, Jowitt and potentially Lawford. Jowitt's been going well in the reserves.
