When I read in the summer the falcons signings of quality players of like flood or mermoz and that you guys will do really good this year.

And you guys are flying. But flood is not playing and (Hodgson is instead)... Why is that? Are flood and mermoz carrying injuries, or are they being kept out of the team due to the other players being in form?

Injuries. But they will both be available to compete for starts very soon. The word "compete" is important. Our squad now has quality in depth as Craig Willis, nominally our third-choice fly-half, showed against the Buns on Saturday.

I would imagine thayt Flood is an automatic starter as soon as he is fully fit, but just to see how the team works with him in the 10 shirt. After that he will have to earn the shirt if he wants it, as his absence due to injury has shown that Hodgson & Willis can also cut the mustard.

Thanks for the positive vibes Fezzes.

I love going up to KP for the Christmas game (Mrs FAC is a Geordie).

With your style of rugby this season (which deano has been striving towards for the past couple of years) and having consistent goal kicking you guys should be in the top half of the table and pushing for playoffs if falcons are lucky with injuries
