Fly half is the only area that's stressing me out for next year. We've got a full complement of Props, Hookers and Scrummies, and outside backs and backrowers are rarely super difficult to find: without knowing exactly where they're at physically/mentally/geographically, Dom & Jordy could re-sign tomorrow and I'd be more than happy. And I'm somewhat certain at least that a 5th Lock wouldn't be hard to source: McDuling was let go by the Tahs because of Simmons and Staniforth coming in, on a 1 year deal, he's capable enough.
If Lance isn't in though, we start to look funny. McGregor is a fine young lad: but not ready, and I think both Horwitz and Hodge will be much, much more valuable as centers rather than 10s. Leaves us a little high and dry. What are we looking at? Sam Greene? Grabbing someone like 38 year old Mike Delaney from across the Tasman? Thrusting Tayler Adams into the deep end?
EDIT: That's what I get for taking forever. Welcome to the sauce brothers.
