I can see him getting more time in the back row again next year with lance having spells at 9

I grow weary of you Saddened! I'm almost tempted to ban you for being the most blitheringly negative person I've ever come across.

I doubt Joynt bossed people around, he lifted trophies for breakfast. It begs the question how important a captain is, would we have lost 5 finals in a row had a leader like Joynt been around?

Personally I think a captain who keeps going with his head down rather than ranting and raving would suit us perfectly.

Makinson does look promising.

move wello into the pack

Back from the bench is Wello's calling. He can learn the assistant coach role there, spending time barking orders and marshalling the troops. He can also cover 1,3,4,6,7,9,11,12,13 in an emergency.

I would compare Wello now to Jon Clarke a couple of years ago. At one point, the face of the team; bled the respective colours. He was the best in his position at the team and had a heart as big as mozza's triceps. Now however, they have been overtaken by youngsters and are costing the team in the long run.

I like Jon Clarke and thought he always did a job at the club. However, there is a very alrge number that actually booed him on his return to the team last year. Wellens could very easily suffer a similiar fate (especially as he is almost as much use as a cadaver at Fullback)

Saddened boy has he got the right name.
He's the sort of fan I hate standing/sitting near. Constantly moaning and slagging of his own team. I don't think he 's been watching the same games as I have. Wello is 99% reliable and lets face it knowone is 100%. So come on SADMAN get more positive ( oherwise moderator ban him)

Makinson at full back and Wello to replace Meli in the centre imo.

They've tried banning me once and there were protest camps set up outside the moderators houses within hours.

Here is the scene in St Helens the last time they attempted such treasonhttps://img412.imageshack.us/img412/699/libyaprotests.jpg" >rl

I was thinking centre as well.

we all know he will be full back next year.

I would hate to see you banned, Saddened. You always make me feel better, even when you are being irritatingly doom and gloom!

If we can get the man of cheese fit, what I'd really like to see is a midfield triangle of Lomax, Gaskell and Wheeler. Lomax would probably be the one to take the #1 shirt in that situation.

I'd be very happy with Makinson there, though.

I'm in that pic, i demand you be reinstated!
