I think VDW is decent and will be good backup, but I hope Hickey is better. He is a Tovey type of player but a lsight upgrade.
His kicking is an issue as if he plays then either Bennet or Kinghorn need to step up, his kicking from hand is ok but he needs to learn to read the wind. My biggest bugbear is that he crabs with the ball in hand, it cuts down space out wide. It is fairly easily sorted I would think.
Weir on form would be in any Pro 14 23 I would think. He had a bad run of form when we were shaping our squad for next year so it was a bit unlucky, he did have 18 months to prove himself though and didn't manage to do it. No doubt he will go on to be a success somewhere like Worcestr, I just hope he can play in the top flight somewhere.
