VdW v Hickey - Hickey has not really done much and tends to sit deeper and deeper when under pressure. VdW threatens the gain line and is strong enough to make yards, he came on last week and then made the break and offload for Graham try, Hickey failed to do that whole time he was on. Still disappointed with Hickey TBH.
You're right, VdW is looking much better as a running threat, and I like his passing as well. His kicking has been woeful these last couple of weeks though. I hope for the forwards' sake he can get the ball near the five metre line this week.
With Kinghorn on the pitch this week I think we may see him being used for some of the kicking to touch etc. VDW needs to improve this aspect of his game.
