In other news, I see Jack Kenningham swept the board at the end
of season awards, winning the Men's Player's Player, Supporter's
Player and Player of the Year.
Takes me back to the year when Mike Brown won every award except
the Mike Brown Award For Being Mike Brown, which was won by Ross
Chisholm.

Radwan is not a bad defender, just his size against him, Ibotoye
is a bad defender, as is Arundell, watch the Saracens v Bristol
match from early in the season to see how bad Ibotoye can be in
defence, since most wingers at international level get 10 or so
touches in attack, being weak in defence is a problem.

Can't agree, I think Radwan is comfortably the worst of the 3
for positioning and decision making. Gabs has improved quite a
bit.

I think he's improved slightly and I don't think is a massive
liability, i think being at Tigers he will only improve on that.
When he first started and when he was capped against I think
Canada/USA I thought he was just a sprinter who couldn't defend,
but he has put in some good hits I've seen and on the whole and
off the back of the season he's had deserves to be in the
equation. I'm not sure if the USA match the squad can be altered
from the Argies one, but I think it would be good to see him
again. That said, I'm not sure we would learn too much from any
new players as no disrespect to the USA its hardly a good
measure of opposition.
The AIs will be a interesting one as Murley, Radwan, OHC,
Ibitoye, Roebuck, Muir, OLS, Freeman are all essentially going
for probably 3 squad places. I'd say right now Freeman and
Roebuck are a shoe in bar injury, so the rest will depend on
early season form. I think Murley and Muir are the most likely
if they continue well but its pretty hard to call.
