Just watched the interviews up on youtube with Greenie, Rufer and Hughes. 

Great interviews. Lots of interesting stuff from Greenie. Main thing is I just like the sound of where he wants to take the playing group. Little tweaks to the playstyle but mainly just getting all the players competing heavily for positions is what we need. Sounds like training was extremely competitive and the lads have some fire under them. Good to hear. 

Also, every time I see Hughes interviewed I'm glad. I think he is very articulate, he doesn't just give standard answers that you see from a lot of players. Great to listen to. After listening to him and seeing his onfield performances improve over the years I think he'll be one hell of a player in a year or two.

Greenie interviewed well. The bit that stood out to me was the discussion about Piper as a centre back. It would be interesting, but not surprising if the back pairing was piper and Hughes. Maybe not this week with eze out but the following weeks. James and tuiloma have been average to poor at best and Piper gives the game 300 percent, he also doesn't pair well upfront with eze.
for context, Greenie was responding to where he sees Piper and mentioned when he first came down he played in the reserves at cb (he was brought down as a defender, that's well documented) , but also mentioned now gives defenders a hard time. I don't think it was conclusive at all that Piper is a cb in Greenie's eyes at present.
