Would imagine James won’t miss too much.

He would have the first Few rounds off anyway being away on tour.

Could be an opportunity for Moore and postlewaithe to get gametime in the centre before McCloskey and Humencome back.

So Stockdale (remember him) and Baloucoune both fit and raring to go but Addison still not ready yet.
A lesser player would have been let go by now surely?

Has anyone heard any updates contrary to this and/or about Luke Marshall?

Best backline in Europe. MFers won't know what's coming.

While I think Mikey is absolutely quality, I think you forget how good Addison is.

Would love to see Addison back and Mike at 10 and sticking with it for 3-6months then make a judgement for all the naysayers.

I'd love to remember Addison as being good, but I can't remember that far back. Hard to remember any player apart from Luke being injured for so long

He was outstanding. That’s not to say he won’t be when he’s fully back.

Class skill set.
Hits like a train.
Elusive.
Fast.
Excellent under high ball.
Versatile.

Unfortunately made of chocolate though. I remember his last team saying the same thing about him when he signed for us- great player but always injured. In all seriousness how long can we afford to carry him?

Fully agree King. Addison is superb and with him at 15, and Mikey getting game time at 10, they would take teams apart.

A fully fit Addison is top class. Will being fully Fit is often the problem.

It’s not like all our back line weren’t injured at some point last season, some seriously and some more than once.

Will’s leg break was the unluckiest of the lot.
