With Gloucester being such a graveyard for Patterson last year, does anyone think that Lawson will get any more of a crack of the whip?

I think his prospects are limited due to the presence of Andy Titterel. He seems to be a shoe-in and Dean Ryan (the coach) has said that they've brought Lawson in as cover.

I think there are too many top Scots in England as back up.

Your right Ed but players need to earn a living we can only hope that they can still get game time and keep a level of fitness. We can't go into the test's with guys who have not played for months.

yeh Taylor is def big enuff for Lock, and might be a good call for the scots.

That's assuming that he's not needed at 8 tho
