One player that is extremely important to our campaign is Simmons, so I think the fact that he has sat out the first 6 rounds will be good in the long run.
Why is Simmons so important? For his Line-out skills? We have plenty of quality jumpers in Fardy, Carter, Higgers, Horwill, Jones etc. Fardy is now calling the line-out for the Brumbies and I think Higgers calls for the Rebels too.
Our current starting locks have probably been the players who are most consistently beaten by their opposite numbers. I wouldn't be against giving other guys a shot (Jones) or even blooding a new lock (Timani, Arnold).
