"he has to play alongside a battler"
Why? does that give him permission to jump out of tackles, moan at everyone and blame them for his inadequacies and really badly slow the play down? (this is the worse thing of all because it lets the opposition regroup when we could break quickly. he will eradicate whats been the best thing about our strike force lately)
so someone else can do the dirty work.
so are you suggesting pearson should play instead? imo he's woeful much worse than kilkenny
