Laird 2 time all Australian would fill the hodge role plus some If I was forced to pick between him and witho I'd pick laird in a heart beat.On the earlier question I’d go
1. Daniher
2. Martin
3. Ah Chee
4. Laird
Daniher is a big upgrade on McStay and could easily win a couple of Colemans
Martin could play a number of outside roles and fill a need. Similarly Ah Chee who is less proven
I’ve never been that big on us needing another back flank and Laird is an accumulator but isn’t damaging. Rich is better IMO and Witherden can play a similar role. Our backline needed a lock down small which it found in Answerth (also Adams strong form can free up Dizzy to play on marking smalls) or a small back with genuine line breaking speed like Conor McKenna or Brodie Smith.
