The Tahs seem to treat wingers like underwear the last coupla years. But, it hasn't bitten them on the arse. Given both Betham and big Taqele are buggering off later this year would it be worthwhile investigating the possibility of Tom Kingston and/or Cam Crawford returning to Sydney next year? They seem to be on the outer in Melbourne, for various reasons.

Cheik didn't seem to like either all that much. I think he prefers wingers to be big and fast. Personally I liked both of them and would have them both back next year but Mr Gibson may not agree. Kingston has been injured a lot, it would probably help to get him back to NSW where we seem to know how to toughen players up for Super Rugby.
Notwithstanding that, there are an absolute raft of good wingers coming through from the U-20's and picking the best ones will be a difficult job. Kellaway has got an inside track, but may end up at 13 or 15; but you could name 3 or 4 others with good credentials.
I'd be more inclined to bring Crawford back to Sydney than Kingston. He's signed with the Rebels for another year though.
It will be interesting to see whether Horne stays on the wing next year or plays 13.

Harry Jones might push for an EPS spot but I think Clunies-Ross will get first crack after training with the team this season.
Kellaway will definitely be part of the squad.

probably for the best. While I loved having him here, I think it's time for Tala Grey and Jed Holloway to step up.
It's good that this has been sorted out sooner rather than later. Hopefully both Holloway and Gray will now be happy to stay knowing that two players that have been ahead of them for the last two years in their positions are leaving.

Jones (Im assuming thats what you were responding to) has torn a pec and had surgery - not sure where that will place him in EPS stakes

I thought he was only meant to out for 8 weeks or so. He'll miss JRWC but might get a chance in the NRC.
Also with Pottgieter moving on which position will the Tahs most likely need to fill with a marquee player? THP looks obvious to me but good ones are paid a lot in Europe so they might find it hard to pick one up.
