Not worse than Tommy, no, but I think his fitness is a concern, to say the least.

If Gelling leaves who would replace him?

Forsyth probably. He seems to have disappeared into thin air though!

I thought that we wanted to improve the team. Forsyth is not ready to step into Gellings shoes yet. Despite the frustrations a fit Gelling is a bigger threat than anyone in the squad. I still see him as more of a wide second row though.

Gelling tweeted the other day that we'll be back like herpes next year so it doesn't sound like he's got plans to move on.

We need him imo although we could do with another centre/utility player to add some pressure for his place.

That would be just the huge forward stride we've all been calling for.

Not.

He's a bigger threat than anyone else in the squad?!

Pretty happy with the Gelling and Gildart in the centres. Gellings carries coming out of our own end are priceless.

Agreed we could do with a Sargison type signing (not him not but some like him in 2014). Just for a bit of depth.

Re: Rumours and signings v9 : Thu Oct 05, 2017 10:28 am  
It seems to me that all talk of replacing our underperforming right centre is a distraction from reality.

I'd love to replace Gelling with someone better, but as he's under contract (and is sometimes capable of putting on a good show), I don't consider a new no. 3 a burning priority.

With a stronger and more aggressive front row, and a more skilled halfback pairing, the three-quarters might actually show what they're capable of.

I'd add that with different tactics - i.e. less use of our centres and wingers as battering rams while our slow, lazy props have yet another rest - we might also see some spark from the backs, but it's starting to feel as if a change of coaching staff is not really on the cards. At least, not yet.
