Some different views on Hastings on the go, My view is that he is a fair full back, defends ok but has some very weak area's to his cv:
He cannot head a ball in a challenge with his forehead, he always turns sideways/or tries to backhead the ball.
His forward distribution/passing is poor and does not get forward enought o support Mcbain down the left
He is one paced and turns like a double decker bus.
Saying all this makes me sound negative about him, which is fairly true as i would have a back to normal Golly in there, however Golly will struggle to get back into the team.
So in order to IMPROVE the team we could do with a good left back, and a right back to challenge Rossco, as he has no one looking over his shoulder.
