| We could lose Dawson, Percival and Turner as well?
Depending on who KC chooses for fullback now, these may not have much impact. Turner and Jones centres, Percival and Dawson on the wings is fine. We might even see someone from the academy.

I'd put Turner at fullback. It's not quite happened to the same degree in Super League but in the NRL lots of teams have moved their most dangerous player to fullback. For example in the 2013 World Cup, of the Aussie backline, all 5 of them were fullbacks at NRL level. He's one of our most dangerous players, he's an athlete, and he can pass. He played halfback and loose last year so he's clearly able to adapt to different roles if necessary. He also has enough experience; fullback is a tough position to bring someone in from the academy just because it's such an isolated position. If you stick an academy centre in, you've got Wilkin and Walsh on either side of him talking to him constantly and a team around him to hide his errors where possible. If you stick a young fullback in, he's on his own with 30 metres of space and every error is noticed by the entire ground.

| Assuming Swift will be OK for next week and to avoid too much dissruption we could put Jones at full back or perhaps try out fleming in that position. We still have options at the moment.

| Or Bailey, who is is actually a fullback? Turner is playing brilliantly at centre, why do we have to start moving lads about, to weaken our back line even more?
How long is Shannon out for?

Definitely. Might need him to the end of the season looking at Shannon last night. Hopefully just a bad case of cramp or a twisted ankle but didn't look nice.

| Please for heavens sake leave JT where he is, we signed him as a centre so give him a chance to be one!
Quite simply has to be Swift/Fleming for me if we don't do something with Locke.

| Percival to FB is the only option for me. Think he will be a revelation there to be honest.
Dawson and Fleming on the wings if Swift isn't fit and you could make a case to try Wellington out on the wing to ease him in.

| Percival catches all Dawsons high bombs, if you play Dawson you can't move Percival.
Turner is an interesting thought though

Trying to avoid a Jones/Dawson partnership we need to keep Percival and Turner in the centres.
