Are they like for like though? Deegan seems more like a classic 10 whereas Hodge is more of a 12 isn't he?
What's wrong with Stewart? I think he's one of the better 12s that has come through the Aus Under 20s in the last few years. He was also excellent in the NRC in a poor team.
This is Reece's first year playing 12, as Sam Lane is in 10.
I hear Reece's preferred position is 10.
Stewart - so him play for Uni last year he was goooood, no issues at all with him being picked up.
The point I am again making - injuries in the 19 - 21 year old window can have a huge impact on a players success / development.
