1- Ratch would get that jersey. 6- O'Brien would play alongside Myler, bring in Luke Gale as cover. 9- I'd take a stab at Paul McShane if Daryl Clarke doesn't sign like rumours suggest.
We often see things the same way. I'd add a quality ball playing LF to that list too.
In other words most of our spine 1, 6/7, 13 needs replacing.
I do worry about 2013/14.
1 = Ratchford 6/7 = Myler/O'Brien - Though bringing in an experienced half may be required to replace Briers. Both players will have had a further experience/tutelage. 13 - Harrison/Grix
I don't think it is that desperate a situation, it could be a lot worse.
Obviously, Briers' replacement, be it internal or external is the biggest consideration.
Didn't William Webb Ellis pick up the ball and run, someone should really tell Rugby Union.

I think we already have that in Grix.
If Briers weren't to be here next season (and I would sob myself to sleep at night if that happened) I think a nice marquee NRL signing would be good to bring on the Myler/O'briens of this world, someone in the mould of Thurston would be nice

And the other positions would be filled by the existing squad, but who would you put there ?
i think we are now in a position where we don't need massive changes just tweeks so if gallen came in then an aussie would have to go so i will pressume hodgson.
