       I think we can fairly safely assume that Robshaw will be winding
       down his game time and building up his coffee empire after this
       season; after seeming almost indestructible for a decade,
       injuries are clearly starting to take their toll.
       Our current senior back row options, when all are fit, are:
       Robshaw (6,7), Clifford (6,7,8), Chisholm (6,8), Dombrandt
       (6,8), Kunatani (7), Bothma (6,8), Luamanu (8, lock), Wallace
       (6,8), White (6). We've needed all of them this season, though 8
       back rowers in the squad seems a bit toppy.
       Assuming Wallace leaves and Robshaw winds down his game time,
       that would probably leave space in the cap to accommodate Evans
       and Smith. They might want to lose one more, but in that case
       I'd hope they let Luamanu go but fight to keep Clifford.

       Much as I think Dombrandt has been great and there is the
       potential for much more to come, Clifford is a former u20
       captain and a capped international. Injuries have really stalled
       his progress but he is a fantastic player. Robshaw will
       hopefully still be involved with England and then after the
       world cup will pribably be looking to move on. Evans, assuming
       he comes, is still fairly inexperienced. Injuries and rotation
       need to be factored in so if we can keep him then as far as I'm
       concerned there is absolutely no sensible reason for letting
       Clifford go (unless his wage demands are absurd).

       Luamanu is apparently off to France.  No that keen on White tbh
