Looks like it, 2 2nd rows on Bench, and no Back Row cover?? Either that or he's considering his options for next year :?

He may see Jowitt as backrow cover and bring in another 2nd row off the bench if required

Its a pretty immobile bench if Jowitt gets injured though. No Niall Ronan??

It's 7 of the 8 pack that will start in Toulouse, With Mal coming in for Jowitt or Miller. He's giving all those forwards as much game time as possible, no point in picking Ben if he ain't gonna feature in Toulouse

Good selection ........ bar number 12. :roll:

Jowitt can play 4, 5, 6 or 8 so we may as well try him in the second row. The pack has lacked a bit of grunt recently so himself and Miller will do a tidy job.

Time to get behind the boys again!!!!! Roll on Sunday.... :D

Hepworth in at 12 I think, isnt McAllistar a 10? Could be C&K want to give Hepworth some game time to get some confidence back - we'll see how he does then.
Management must think these are the games for a little experimentation (1 in the pack and 1 in the backline). We've seen it in all the non-HEC matches this year (except new years). And I think I agree with them on that part of it.

McAlistar has played most of his provincial rugby at 12

McAllister played 12 when Kidney was picking him there. He's too light to play there.

Much prefer see Sexton (or McAllister, or Hickey) at 10 with Felipe at 12.

McAllister - all that promice in the senior cup, what happened. He's definitely an out half inthe kidney mold.
