The chances of Sneyd and JR being able to play together 75% of the season are already about shot
This is the reality and we need a 6 to slot in
I’d use Jake at 6 - I really would but BH will make the call
Is anyone better at 6 then Jake compared to who’s better at 1 covering Jake
It’s a % thing I suppose
Interesting - at least we have Fev for the new 6-7 partnership to bed in
I would really love to know where you have seen that Jake is the best option at 6, because I, and everyone else I've spoken to, believe that whilst Jake might be wanting to cement the No6 shirt, he's yet to prove on the pitch that that is his best position. He's had many chances over the last couple of years, yet has proved time and again that his natural flare is far better suited to the centre and full back spots.
It's so refreshing to see Brett doing what we've all wanted for a long time, and that's simply replacing Josh with another player without uprooting several players in the process. Keep the spine as settled as possible and bring Ben in, he's shown that he's more than capable of the challenge.
