Following the departure of so many players on Friday, I started thinking about how we are looking for next year. Below is the side I have come up with, and I think it looks pretty strong - crucially, it leaves 5 spots on the 35-man roster (not sure how the Super B competition affects squad sizes) for backline strengthening (we will definitely need cover at lock as well as scrumhalf and five-eighth).
I have left Jarrod Saffy out as impression on here seems to be that he is leaving.
