Not really a fan of tonks. I'd be weakening my back 3 overall with Artimiev being slightly better than Brady but Brady being english means there's nothing between them in terms of value and Miller being a lot better than Tonks.

But i can possibly see some sort of deal being worked out.

Brady, Miller, MacLeod and 10 mill
for
Artimiev, Myler, Wilson and Elliot

Week 9 - Mike Haywood
Week 10 - George Pisi

Tactics

In the good conditions we'll be looking to play at a high tempo and intensity from the off and move the opposition around the park.

We will look to set a tone in the set piece with our big scrummaging front 5 and will look for the squeeze from the off. Parling will lead the line and we will look to target the opposition's throw with Newby/Parling marshalling the front/middle of the line. We'll use big carries from our pack to draw in the opposition defence with Harrison marshalling and looking for gaps to exploit around the fringes.

Wallace 7 Newby will target the breakdown with Harrison sniping around and playing flat to the line to allow Barnes & Manu space to run into. JOC will come looking for the ball in midfield and link up with Manu causing problems in the opposition midfield. We'll look to refresh pack around 60mins + and keep up the intensity.

Barnes will act as second playmaker and look to bring our backs into play and exploit Manu’s physicalty with mismatches and also as a decoy to draw the opposition defense.
