Haha i know right. I just don't get the move by Pay, why can't he just promote a prop to the bench? You don't see Bellamy relegating players from his 13 to try and strengthen his bench, he just tells them to aim up or he finds someone else to do the job.
Look at what he has done with NAS. A fair few people on TK would probably keep him on the bench for impact, Bellamy says fuck that and rewards his good form off the bench last season with a starting position.
Pay just needs to pick and stick with his best 13 for now and then pick his strongest bench with what's left over. Then he can motivate his bench to push for starting spots and reward them if they perform.
