What is Mead's injury

Don't like to see anybody go off like that, from the sidelines it was difficult to tell and I haven't seen the replay
From his position on the stretcher, it looked like a groin ??

Adductor tendon in the thigh. 8-10 weeks

The first question is who will replace Mead.I would play bighead Gigot,who is nowhere near as good as he thinks, at centre,and bring Yaha in so that the backs are Tomkins Tierney Gigot Wiliame Yaha Smith or Albert and Langi.I agree that we desperately need the return of Bousquet and Bird and that Garcia and Julien should start with Edwards coming on later .

Disagree massively. When he is playing at full back, he is as good as he thinks he is.

I wouldn’t move Gigot to accommodate Langi, who was ok in the centres anyway. As for Smith, exactly as I remember from Saints - slow and anonymous. I honestly think Albert (who I don’t rate that much) would offer more
