Message: [QUOTE="theshed, post: 3078839, member: 2290"] For me it’s nothing against Dearden. If anything it’s a slight against Milford and Boyd. We need a leader in our spine, we need an organiser in our halves. Not only do I think that Dearden is yet shown enough to have owned his starting spot, but I don’t even think it is fair to Dearden to bring him in to our spine as it stands. I’d be very happy for Dearden to start if we get a controlling and experienced 5/8th in the form of a Foran or Maloney to partner him and lead the team around. But it doesn’t look likely and I’m not sold on Milford at fullback. So unfortunately for Dearden I think the best way to reshuffle our deck with what is available is to get a good fullback and unspectacular but experienced halfback to partner Milf, bookended by Turpin at hooker. TL:DR; Dearden doesn’t yet have what we need, and what we do have doesn’t provide Dearden with what he requires to become the half back we need. It’s a catch 22 for Dearden I’m afraid. [/QUOTE]
