Yeah

Though if we're playing two from McLean, sorenson, Gilmour, Rupp (who played well last night) in the centre - I'd say that Sorenson is the one who needs a first teamer to challenge for a starting berth (McLean being challenged by Rupp/Gilmour) sorenson /Gilmour needing a tough tackler to push.

Really early days for Gilmour and I think he'll be really useful but I'd be amazed if he becomes a Skipp-esque ever-present for us.

That said, I think we'll be looking to play a far more Southgate esque rotating squad horses for courses approach this season in an effort to keep people involved and sharp and opponents guessing.

The players we're signing point to more tactical flexibility - which is maybe a benefit (or necessity) after Emi's departure.
