       is a solid third choice but we will need a good loose head to be
       a starter for a bulk of the season Baxter is probably away with
       England, but I feel Obano will be in the mix at least for a
       recall after a good season for Bath.

       I would disagree, Jibulu has had some good carries granted but I
       think if you take into account what a hooker has to do Riley
       edges it for me, but Walker IMO is our best "all round" hooker.
       I would say Dino or Lennox if they do leave would be bigger
       losses. I understand why Dino might go now that he has choosen
       Italy, but Lennox I don't get, unless Joe Marchant has been
       talking to him and told him to go and try something differnt.
       Just my thoughts thou.

       In a non-rugby context, that could be something of a slur
       😱
