How many backmen can you fit in a backline?
Pick your best backline and look who you've left out ???
If everyone's available (and even allowing a couple of extras to cover injuries) how the hell do we cater for all these blokes.
Some players are going to have to reinvent themselves as mids or forwards.
Which is why, again, i refer to the recruitment of A. Silvagni.
As good as he has been for us, he is surplus to us....or creates a surplus for us when we play him.
We are doing a rebuild, we didn't need a bandaid.
We would've been better off (long term) spending that slot on our key forward (or a mid).
