Does anyone know why Dickson is out of favour? On the face of it he is a better forward than Wallis, Dale, West, Schache, Weightman, Mclean, Vandermeer, Gowers and Cavarra, basically all of our forwards, yet despite being fit most (possibly all?) rounds hasn't been picked ahead of any of these guys.

If we don't think he is better than them, why is he on the list? And if it's because of some other reason, why are we not being told?
