Everybody mentions this game when trying to pigeonhole Wilkin as a standoff. Has been poor In every other game at s/o imo.
If I was going to move Pryce to full back(i don't, him and Kyle are gelling well) Id put Wheeler at s/o and Dean/Armstrong at .

Agree with the Don. Wilkin has played at SO a number of times and has stunk
on every occasion except the Leeds game last season.

You can't live off one game forever. Wilkin is a backrow forward
who can play a bit.

Wellens future at Saints is at LF , Pryce suits FB better than SO.
However once Wellens is fit it will be back to the usual Wellens 1 , Pryce 6.
Next season may see some structural changes but this season any changes
are temporary I suspect.

I don't mind Pryce as a (very) short term sticking plaster over full back. But that's it. There is little point in splitting up a half-back partnership that has only just started bearing fruit in favour of another new combination.

Pryce & Eastmond compliment each other well. Let's keep them together where they will do the most damage collectively.

Pryce is proving a very capable deputy at FB.

However you have to think about strongest possible lineup, and at present thats Wello fb Wheeler centre and Pryce standoff.

Wilikin is a skillful footballer at standoff but i think the team loses something with him there. I also think we tend to be very left sided with him in the halves.

Pryce is out and out better than Wellens at fullback and it isn't hampering his combination with Kyle at all. It's clear we need either a new fullback or a new stand off. Wello isn't good enough anymore.

play wellens centre then hes better than dean

At Fullback. Agreed.

The perpetual motion , defence and experience would go very well at LF.

On a reduced contract for next season would offset the loss of
Flannery in the Backrow.

Pryce was playing very well at 6 before Wello got injured and building a combination with Kyle.

Wellens is our full back, Pryce is our 6.

If Pryce had been playing stand off against Wigan instead of Wilkin, we would have won the game IMO. Until we have a strike centre that can free Wheeler up to play 6, we are better off with Wello at 1 and Pryce at 6.

Got to diagree with this. Wello's positional sense and one on one tackling are better than Pryce. He's not as fast but his positional sense makes up for almost all of that.

However I think Pryce at FB seriously hampers our attack as he's not involved anything like as much when he's at full back and he needs as much time as possible alongisde Eastmond to really build that partnership.

Completely agree. I'm liking Pryce at full back but we haven't got a ready made replacement for us at stand off as the next options are too inexperienced.

We,ve never really replaced Scully at loose Forward since his retirement. Wellens has still got 2 good seasons left him, I would like to see from next season: Lomax at Full Back Wellens at Loose Forward and Wheeler given the Left Centre shirt. Sol to play in the second row.

On the Pryce at fullback subject - the man himself says .... "I enjoy playing everywhere - full-back is a position that really suits me and the way I play" here news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/rugby_l ... 607105.stm I think this should put to bed some of the nonsense that people have come up with claiming Leon would ONLY play at 6.

Maybe it wasn't nonsense when he joined us? Age can mellow a person, so I'm told.

Leon Pryce is superb. One of the best signings the club ever made.
