IMHO Timoney is born and built to play 8. He has a backside on him like a Mullingar heifer, his acceleration and low centre of gravity make him a real threat off the back of a scrum.

Dalton must be gash if he’s been overlooked for Sean Diesel.
Dalton wasn't great for under 20's in the first match as a 6, he is a young guy and Edinburgh will be a very very physical game.
Plus Dalton is a lock - hence he didn't look good at 6,was hoping Jones might have made a reappearance but maybe Deysel is needed against a very physical side.

Dalton is definitely a 6 and he was excellent in the u20s against a massive french pack. He loves the physical stuff.

He was poor. He looked lost out there and was overpowered in contact a good number of times.

Well it seems like we have a difference of opinion.

One that I'm quite surprised by! This is the first time I've seen anyone talk positively about that performance.

Want to watch where you say he has a backside like a Mullingar heifer, I met this lot on a night out a few months ago and I wouldn't have messed with them.

Dalton looks a good player, but he's a lock, not a 6.

I've plenty of hope for Dalton don't get me wrong, just that game wasn't one to inspire it! The only backrowers which I felt came out of it with much credit were Sullivan at 8 and Hall before he came off, who showed I felt a lot more promise to me than he had previously.
