Nick Tompkins

pass straight into the 13 channel and then 12 and 10 wrapping around him to then attack on the edges and i think if you are looking at the makeup of the saracen squad if you were to be critical and say there's a weakness sort of anywhere on the park it would probably be their center pair right and i don't think they're particularly they're still good players now obviously but in the makeup of the squad that's where they're sort of lacking a little bit And if you can do anything to sort of aid that, if you can fire a really long ball out to those guys and then give them as much space as they could possibly ask for, then have someone as dynamic as Fergus Burke playing on the wrap, you then negate the need for your centres to go and sort of tear up trees, right? It's quite common in poor teams to have a great centre or two great centres who you just rely on wholeheartedly, right? But if you bring in a nine of Thomas Williams quality, you can then almost, you don't negate the centres, but what you do is you give them the best opportunity to launch.

So if you're putting Nick Tompkins through a gap or you're putting Olly Hartley through a gap, great right that's that's brilliant and they're players that can make the most of that but if you're giving them no ball slower ball or just poor delivery you're asking them to to go over and above to get anything to sort of launch but thomas williams can put those through put them through that gap um and then just a side note on that as well obviously in their prem cup game this week um we saw uh sione uh veyanuku who just transferred across from amptill play.

He got himself a try in the remaining 40 minutes.

Potentially a bit harsh, but everyone seemed to get a try in that last 40 minutes.
