I think that he is probably on a fairly small salary and
probably is quite a good insurance policy in light of Will's
injury record.

Evans is a breakdown machine and we don't really have anyone who
replicates that skill set - but nor do most clubs. What's been
impressive this year is that other players are winning turnovers
too - most notably Dommers and Lynagh.

Do you know which of those players are openside flankers?
My guess is that we have:
Openside - Wallace, Evans
Openside / Blindside - Kenningham
Blindside / No 8 - Lawday, Chisholm, Dommers, White, Trenholm,
Alikhan, CCS

Lawday has played openside multiple times to good effect. He
wouldn't get above Evans or Kenners if both are fit and we have
a fit 6 and 8, but I'd have him ahead of Wallace. Wallace,
equally, has played a fair bit at 6.
Alikhan I think is a 7 (from memory), and Trenholm is listed as
a flanker but has played a bit at 8 so I think you're right
there. It would be a surprise if we haven't prioritised an
additional openside coming through the academy, though, so I
would expect one of them to be able to play there.
