Posters seem to think Moroni made a difference today. You wouldn’t start him against Slade at Exeter

I'd start Ford next week, he needs some game time under his belt with us

Toss of the coin for me.
Scott try was massive at the time, Moroni came on a steadied things.

Considering he's not even been released yet how would we do that?

Scott had a good game and took his try well. He's solid in defense and always puts in a good shift. Kelly has been playing really well, as has Porter. Moroni had a great impact today and is a class player and a great footballer so it's a really tough call. Moroni is a starter for me though and I would give him the nod to start against Exeter.

Selection for Prem Cup is certainly gonna be interesting with that midweek game in mind. Might not even get the likes of Ilione for the first game.
