Why don't we play him in the A-League (if we have to play him
anywhere that is)? Why allow him to get his match practice in
important matches?

Presumably because Lang picked up a knock the other week.

Our basics were poor and discipline erratic but we had to
contend with a well organised Grenoble defence whose line speed
was as quick as anyone Ive seen recently apart from Sarries .
I thought our pack played pretty well ,( Bothma had a poor day
by his standards )and Saili looked strong , but the handling in
the backs was unusually poor and we did seem to run out of ideas
pretty quickly .
My concern is with Catrakillis ,he certainly hasn't rebuilt
much confidence after his injury .
In the Sarries game near the end Farrell took a few steps
towards him and he whizzed the ball over Alofa's head like a
Frisbee and did pretty much the same thing on Saturday just
after arriving on the pitch
Any oppo that has done their homework will be aware of his
situation and will instruct their 7 and 10 to hit him hard as
early as possible to unnerve him.
He's a good 10 , ( as we witnessed when he pulled the strings
for the Montpelier side in the 2016 Final) and wont lose his
rugby ability but needs some game time in less pressure
situations before he is back to his best .
Unfortunately with Langs injury that puts a lot of pressure back
on Marcus Smith .

With the next few weeks being this new prem cup, hopefully the
Cat will get more game time and get his confidence up again.
Smith could probably do with a bit of time off, as it looks like
he will be our main 10 for the rest of the season. With Lang out
though and Swiel gone to Falcons, do we have an academy 10 that
could provide a bench option?
