Who would you prefer Goulding and Josh

Josh and Amos

Lets see how Gelling and Josh get on first.

Wane hints in his interview that it may be 6 months before gelling settles or even 2013. He says he is one for the future which suggests he is a long term replacement for carmont. This would make sence of letting marsh leave as he was carmonts replacement elect

Here's one I heard Boxing Day. Myler out of Wire and Eastmond to be his replacement. That was before Mylers injury though.

Would only work if Myler is going to Saints. They tend to be the ones who sign severely injured players who they can sit on their treatment bench for the next three years.

eastmond is just about to make his début for Bath after recovering from injury (new years day is the day they are looking to play him). I think he will want to at least give it a go.

As conroy posted Josh seems to be getting a lot of stick abbout his defence when i think a lot of it was caused by Joels lack of experience and positioning as his centre which left him exposed and marking two opponents.

True, there were two inexperienced players working together. Defensively weak all season, but thats how you learn. Good centres are bloody hard to come by.

Chris Ashton expected to leave Northampton for more money. He will be straight to Sarries with Joel. Very worrying the fact that the brain drain of ex players is killing us as a code.

For rumours like that have a look on the union thread... a month ago

How hilariously funny would that be.
