Without Chair…

We’re fighting and winning.

I'd prefer a fit and available Chair but with four tricky nimble little players in the squad and the hardworking Smyth we have plenty of cover and options if one or two are injured. I'm hoping Poku can manage a run of fitness so we can properly see what he can do... he could be a real difference maker for second half of season.

Chair is a good player and not had enough game time yet under JS to see how well he can fit the current system. If Burrell and Kone both play we need more outright wide players and have decent number of those.

Agree will be interesting to see what Poku can do once fully up to speed. Have a feeling he will do well for us. Has that something about him, at least from little we have seen so far. With the options we have ability is there to roast full backs all season long.

As much as i Like Chair i do think we are a better balanced side without him in the team. He has become a bit predictable cutting in from the left to try and shoot from distance. that said the last few games he was returning to form. but i do not think he is an automatic starter

We’re a much better team without him in the side we attack quicker he always checks back slowing the game down when we’re looking to break out quickly with our pace up top , he can’t be one of the first names on the sheet now Saigon works harder giving the team better balance

Id say it feels more like when JCS plays we win more than we lose.

At least that's what it feels like, hopefully this new knock isn't anything and he stays fit and able to play.

I don't think Saito works much harder (if at all) than Chair and they have about the same end result.
