When walking out of Langtree Park last week feeling very very disappointed and banging on about how rubbish our halfbacks are, then suddenly I just thought, I'd pick Jon wilkin in the halves. He's not the greatest pair of hands or rugby brain but he'd get involved and try to organise us.
Friday night, I got my weekly txt message of the team for Saturday and thier he was playing in the halves. Had Brown over heard me say it ?
I would now give wilkin a extended run in the halves, he's one if our senior players and will get involved. No doubt he will have many stinkers on the way but at least he will try. Lee Gaskell and lomax don't get involved, we don't see them for large spells of the game, we've even had TP and Laffranchi going in a first receiver against hudds.
Also, playing Wilkin in the halves allows us to bring a better runner with the ball into the pack. The back three of sia, Manu and Flash is a stronger pack.
That's my opinion on it and obviously Brown is thinking down the same lines.
