lbw 869 Posted August 17, 2023 Joe didn't look confident on the bike last night, hope Adam is back for the play offs as he is the best number 7 out there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If we have to rely on our number 7 to win the play offs we are struggling but it would be better to get Joe if Adam isnt coming back. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, plus Joe just needs more track time and be fine. Really we only need him to get 3-4 points a meeting if they do get him in.

Edinburgh used Jason Edwards 2021 I think as a guest every week for rest of season and in play offs I believe. Questioned at the time was as you say 8 day rule didn't apply. But an NDL guest was a rider who hadn't obtained a champ average over 4 in the old days. So if that's the same could Joe T continue to guest? Edited August 17, 2023 by Jaizer .

The Poole v Edinburgh preview states 'Poole still considering their guest options for Sunday'! Rule is pretty ambiguous and no mention of Championship average only if he has an average in Premiership or Championship that is the figure used. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If he's out for the season, Joe T seems the obvious signing, can't think of anyone else. Joe's a better choice than Jack Smith imo 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Although maybe a domino effect with other clubs if someone signs Ashten B and we could use who they drop? Not long left to do this though! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
