What is the cock up?
We were told if Bullock starts we would lose a sub and from what happened Lam decided to lose a sub so he wasn't forced to re-shuffle and start Bullock?

What i don't get is why this needed to be so difficult and why we had to lose a sub, incorrectly or not. Just start bullock!
Lam is quoted as saying to fit bullock into the 13 we would have to shuffle about 5 players, i am confused at how this is so. from how i see it -
farrell moves to centre to cover gildart (a change that was 100% happening anyway no matter what scenario)
Partington drops back from prop to second row
bullock moves into starting prop.
Only 1 position change realistically as farrell was moving to centre in any scenario, this didnt need to be as difficult as we made it. Since bullock only played 8 mins i think somebody said? i am guessing it is the case that lam just really didn't want to play bullock either way. If he had started we would get 2 stints out of him rather then one pointless cameo in the second half. I can't wait for this season to be over as i have had enough of lam at this point
