Just wait for Blore to come back and ruin the theory, with Garner spending good mins at lock having trained there this pre-season. Even Simpkins could push for more minutes given he impressed at 13 in the trial.
I’ll happily eat my words if I’m wrong, but I don’t see Blore eating into Twal’s minutes at all. I think he’ll either sub off Garner in the last 15 or so, or just replace one of the lower minute middles (Tamou, Ofa).
Garner working at lock concerns me a little, but I don’t think it should impact Twal too much. If he does replace Twal at lock I can see Twal moving into the middle and having Blore come onto the edge (kinda the same as Blore coming on for one of the middles).
Something to watch for sure though.
