Correct me if I am wrong but wasn't it Watkins who twice got back to save certain tries against Salford last week? One especially stood out when he took the ball off the guy as he was about to go under the sticks.

Now I know that was only Salford but he's not exactly awful! Young, improving with game time and a great prospect.

Not sure if anyone has called this on here before (although I imagine nantwich must have at some point) but I think Ryan Hall has shown enough signs that centre could be his ultimate position (if Leeds can fill the wings without him.) Big, strong and quick, a good hand off, generally has great hands, including a secure one handed carry and target hitting offload. Tough position defensively but he has no issues in that department generally at the moment so I trust he can adapt.

Whilever Watkins looks uncomfortable in the position (and appears happier on the wing) I'd be interested in seeing Hall having a run inside with Smith/Jones-Bishop and Watkins/Hardaker outside him and Senior.

St Helens appear to have even turned Meli in to a threat by doing something similar.

Delaney did well to prevent a certain score there.

Broughton it seems has quite a schedule on his plate and appears an exception to the more typical 'big daft lads' type found in League. Makes you wonder just how good he could be if he concentrated on his rugby.

Oh and thanks for the link.

I did indeed icon_biggrin.gif ...but can't take sole credit. Another contributor, whose name unfortunately escapes me, made the same suggestion at about the same time.

Good to see somebody else using his Broughton-like-brain and imagination icon_wink.gif
