       That is a but harsh on Oscar Beard. He looked to the manor born
       against Irish. He deserves to start on the wing again. Merchant
       at 13 and Beard on the wing.
       Lynagh needs to work to get back in. If fit his impact from the
       bench could be excellent.
       I have not been too impressed with Hugh Jones so far. I would
       like to see Lennox Ayanouw given a chance to impress from the
       bench.

       I've a vague recollection of seeing something on Instagram about
       Wilco Louw being in week 3 of 5 weeks of rehab. Hopefully I'm
       wrong.

       I think we'll need the bulk of CSW to counter the Tigers maul
       threat, he really made a difference against Saints when he came
       on

       Wasn't beard caught out of position on several occasions? Work
       in progress for me.

       At least one of the penalties against Walker was a totally
       incorrect call from the ref. He was called for movement after
       the tackle when the closest LI got to a tackle was to place a
       hand on Walker's back as he went over. He does get pinged a bit,
       but I think that's partly down to how much he puts in - he
       offers himself for work a heck of a lot.

       With the new kicking laws 50/22, the jobs of the wingers is
       getting tougher. I believe Beard is more of a centre anyway.
       I thought he took his tries well and will learn from the
       experience. It would be harsh to drop him after a game where he
       scored two tries.

       I wouldn't see it as "dropping" him. Beard is VERY young and
       looks a good prospect, but there are others ahead of him when
       fit - Lynagh being one of them. Beard did very well against Rowe
       of LI, but going up against the likes of Nadolo is a different
       kettle of fish. Injury may well necessitate his selection, but
       if not I'd rather we go with one of our more established squad
       members and protect Beard's development. I think he's still got
       a bit of bulking out to do before we see him competing to be a
       regular starter.

       Well he could feel like he is being dropped.
       I cannot see them dropping him and bring in Lynagh who has not
       played any rugby for a while now.
       Beard is not striking violet. He is roughly 6ft and well over 15
       stone. Agreed he can fill out more but he is already a unit.

       He's a 20 year old who's only playing because of injuries. He
       knows his place in the pecking order and no-one at that age has
       any expectations for selection.

       I think your assertion that he's a "unit" is a little fanciful
       and still think he's too green for Tigers. I think we'll see
       Marchant at 14 to combat Ford's kicking game and Northmore at 13
       if fit, if not then Jones.
