i completely agree turner should be on the wing ahead of owens, he might even be a revelation on the wing.
Id bring back josh perry to play on the wing over owens. What a crap signing he has turned out to be
although to be fair josh perry does remain undefeated as the worst signing ever...'"
Owens should be spelled in the reserves for at least a month to see if he actually has a mojo to get back.
Obviously I would pick Swift or Tommy over Turner if they were available, but as they are not we may as well try him there. I wouldn't hold my hopes out for a sparkling performance though.

| Quote: Magic Superbeetle "According to Long on Friday, our back 3 typically cover 10-12km a match - can you see Turner, given the shape he's in, being able to cover that sort of distance, and still being effective with the ball? Coupled with his complete inability to bend (thus susceptible to the grubber) it could be a complete disaster. While Owens is poor, I don't think any of his performances have been [icomplete[/i disasters...
Swift is due back for the CC game I believe ... its a case of holding out until then...'"
I'd agree , Turner on the wing in his current state would be a recipe for disaster

| Why do we constantly try to find a spot for Turner? If he's not good enough for centre (he isn't) then simply don't pick him.

| IT was less about finding a place for Turner and more about whether there was a better option than Owens.
For the end of season I would agree it's maybe time for a few to move on and Turner would be in that group, but I still would like him to have a run on the wing if it's him or Owens.

| He's very much outside the first 17 when Swift returns, so Turner will be OK as a back up player, as mentioned will give KC another option than Owens who hasn't been a disaster in the last couple of games to be honest.

He wasn't running around for Lomax before the last two games, when he looked just as bad.
I've only seen the highlights of yesterday so can't comment on that performance, but I hope he did have a good game and this turns things around for him, because he's been woeful previously.

| Am i the only one that can see turner has natural ability and the things that let him down can be worked on.
probably doest help he gets switched to 5 different positions.
i think he could make a good winger.
ive seen nothing in owens that suggest he could ever be more than average. Hope he proves me wrong

He's a reasonable attacking centre but perhaps the coaching team have failed him to read defensive plays we don't know. I,ve seen him put in some big hits but these a few and far between now. Didn't we sign him for his attack and to add speed to our backline, I remember when he played for Hull giving Shenton who was at saints at the time a head start and chased him down after 50 metres.
The problem now is that he has become a "utility" player and I,m not too sure in the long term who is the lesser of the 2 evils, Owens or Turner. At the moment Dawson is the more consistent this season whether be it on the wing or centre.

Turner is the lesser of the two evils, even though he can be poor defensively, in the centre he adds to the attack. Owen does neither at the moment.
In fact, it shouldn't even be a comparison really.
And Dawson is bang average, he's not even as good as Gardner.

Hopefully we've seen the last of "Turnstile Owen" if Swift returns next week, the pecking order:
Swift
Turner
Dawson
SMD
Owen
Makinson (n/a)
