It can be pretty easily argued the guys Sullivan is using aren’t leading to Ws either. Sprong isn’t a fourth liner, that’s always been clear. However, it’s kind of comical their middle six is struggling like hell, which is where Sprong should be, yet Sullivan’s so determined to be right, he would rather keep losing and watching his middle six toil than at least try Sprong there.
And people can throw out the argument of what Sprong “deserves”, but once again ZAR deserves nothing he’s earned either. ZARs treatment is about the easiest counter anyone can give to posters claiming Sprong hasn’t earned this or that. It’s obviously favoritism towards ZAR, but that just jives with what I’m trying to point out...
Most coaches would try to unturn any stone they could when things get this desperate, so that should answer the obvious about how badly he wants Sprong gone.
So you want Kessel or Hornqvist on line 4 because those are the wingers you are advocating to move..
Sprong has to outplay Kessel or Simon. He hasn’t outplayed Simon. I think even if he did outplay Kessel they aren’t dropping him down to the fourth.
