Glad to see Walker in the there. Hope he gets a game.

No Tuson?

Just my personal opinion but hasnt done much to keep himself in the side, i think we have a better player in john davies who went well against catalans but has been sent out on dual registration.

Dont under estimate the amount of work in defence that Tuson gets through. The lad is a tackling machine

We already have a tackling machine in jones, what we need is a bit of go forward, as only snitch can do this in our second row at the moment.

Stuart Jones in the centres and Jordie Thompson at stand off? Are you f*cking mad?

You do know SO is one of many position Thompson plays...right?

Never seen the guy punt a ball before put it this way, plus he's settling nicely on the wing. Jones in the centres though, running in treacle springs to mind..

Thompsons natural position is stand off, he is a better stand off than a winger, and with no sherwin i would rather play a recognised half there than either westerman or goldy both of whom have tried and failed in that position and would weaken the team by moving from there positions.

As for jones in the centres, who the hell else is going to go there clayton? we might as well not turn up if thats the case, snitch is needed in the middle of the field. Jones will firm our defence up outwide.

So go on brains what would your team be?

Wingers generally dont do much kicking do they?

What better alternative to jones is there that wouldnt significantly weaken the team in another area? Alot of people thought putting widders in the centre was a terrible idea but it worked rather well.

Oh and by the way jones has filled in at centre for huddersfield before.

Well, this is what I'd go for...

netherton was better than hudson against saints why move him from hooker to the halfs when he's a hooker?
Mcgoldrick has been in good form at fulback why move him to a position he hasnt played in years and that doesnt suit his style of play, it wastes his attacking ability (which relies on him moving round the field and coming into the line) and exposes his defensive frailties.
Fullback is a position that is very high pressure and needs an experianced head to organise the defensive line putting thompson there puts him under alot of pressure and will probably end up destroying his confidence.
