We need speed and defensive pressure from our small forwards IMO.
They'd be replacing Wright in a similar role, physically and athletically they'd be upgrades on Wright and they are not slower in fact they are probably a bit faster.
Whether they can kick straight or not is another issue, but I suspect over the last couple of years the only thing keeping Wright in that role was experience and work ethic, the kids are gathering experience quickly. Kerridge is now a wiser head and has always had the work ethic.
Do not be too quick to write them off as replacements in a Wright type role, especially young SoJ!
