I think now we have to play Bowden at 10 in the LV Cup and Premiership when Flood isn't available and who knows he might put some attacking spark into the backline which we've lacked especially when GF has played.

Still doesn't mean we need another 10, if we have any money to spend, I would spend it in the forwards,we might need a prop or two and many feel we need some more back row players, tend to agree on our depth there.

I will say Jake Sharp at Bedford is playing very well he is being tipped as the best playmaking 10 in england outside of the premiership and when Owen Farrell got his break in the sarries team many saracens fans feel asthough sharp would have chosen ahead of farrell but sharp curently had a broken arm.
However as a Bedford fan I am saying stay away.
