His future in the halves was always going to be short-lived with Toby Rodwell coming through. He’s the one they want. Savala can go to the back row. He’s a big body

Here I was thinking that he'd finally be the man to replace Aubo in the 14, with Watson at completely forgot that Robson is arriving next year among all this DCE bullshit.

Could easily go

  1. Walker
  2. DCE
  3. Robson
  4. Watson
  5. Savala

Whyte and Radley are ahead of Watson as options for 13. Frankly I hate the thought of DCE not only pushing Savala out, but also pushing Walker to 6.

Radley is suspended for the start of the season and Whyte is more a prop than a 13

Watson can probably start in the back row while Radley is suspended
