What do we do over the Cup and Heiny matches? Field our least injured (walking wounded) LH as a starter, have him go to his knee within a minute or so, have the next least worst injured LH come on, and also go to his knee and come off, to then replace him with a back rower and ask for uncontested scrums? Are we allowed to field not fully fit players and be that cynical? Right now, throwing another body in as LH is asking someone to accept a suicide mission, which is pretty much what Nearchou was asked to do, poor lad.
The 'laws' say we must have 2 LHs in the 23 (and that means players who have clearly played and trained in that position), and we are not allowed the option not to so do (big fines etc).
