I think this is ideal as Lockers is never a 13 and Tomkins is as he proved last season. Unfortunately Lockers position at 13 seems to be as unimpeachable as him being the captain and neither is best for the team or him IMO.



In all friendlies and the first two games of this season, O'Loughlin has been playing as a typical 13.

Agreed - whilst there is an argument for him being more effective at second row, saying he is 'never a 13' is a bizarre comment. His whole game is based around it.

Especially now that Barrett has left.

I think we'll see a huge improvement from O'Loughlin in '09 now that he has more freedom to link up with the halfbacks opposed to letting everthing revolve around Barrett and that's why many were calling for him to switch to second row last year. Regardless of what people think, truth is Sean O'Loughlin is a good ball handler and is very good at attacking out wide.

My starting back row would be Hansen & Locky in 2nd row with Tomkins at 13 & Hock on the bench.
Altough Bailey is obviously better at the moment than Mossopp keeping him beyond his current contract is only going to hinder his potential as Mossopp should really be looking to break into the 17 by 2010. Ideally he should be getting the odd game in the first team now but can't really see that happening TBH

For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.

For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.

Wigan had eight in a row

I don't think Hock has stamina, generally a LF is on the pitch 80mins. When Bailey goes, Lockers and Hock in the Back Row with J Tomkins at LF.
