Quote: Superted "I certainly wouldn't be averse to a spine of;
1 - Hardaker
6 - McGuire
7 - Burrow
9 - Falloon
Falloon is capable of big minutes and big defence in the middle of the park, which means McGuire and Burrow can have an edge each and we're not as exposed as when we had them two, plus Sinfield trying to avoid the middle of the pitch defensively. Burrow also has a decent long kicking game.
Could then carry Sutcliffe on the bench as a potential game changer.'"
I think i would still carry Burrow at sub, but he would possibly interchange with Sutcliffe rather than Falloon.
One thing that gets forgotten about Sinfield is just how good a defender he was, most halves were near the bottom of Sinfield was near the top, despite being a half and despite being in and out of the side last year, he was still our 8th best tackler last year so keeping Falloon on the field means he can take some of Sinfields defensive work.
One thing with our versatility is we can start with cuthbertson at 13, McGuire at half, Sutcliffe at stand off, Falloon at 9, and Burrow as interchange hooker. Then can move Cuthbertson forward to prop, have Falloon at 13 to defend, and Burrow at 9, or Sutcliffe to 13, and Burrow to the halves.
