Mark Smith would be imo a good signing for us

OK
We have Ashley Gibson & Mark Henry , Chris Nero & Phil Bailey
All officially ' Centres ' although they have covered Wing & 2nd Row roles respectively
Jodie Broughton on Wing

Rumoured in's
Sean Gleeson ' Centre ' Wakefield
Stuart Reardon ' Wing - Fullback ' Bulls
Martin Aspinwall ' Wing - Centre ' Giants
Greg Johnson ' Wing ' a team 'Giants'

that's probably the strongest selection we've had available to us for many a year . especially if you add Ratchford in his capacity as utility cover aswell

do you think weve got to many versatile players instead of specialist players for that certain position like weve not got 2 decent out and out wingers and weve got about 4 cum 2nd rowers/wingers if you get what im trying to say!!!

I think in this day and age players have had to become the 'Utility Player' that was once seen as just someone who can cover for injuries.

Centres play in the pack. Second-rowers play centre. Loose Forwards play stand-off. Stand-offs play hooker. etc etc

In my opinion, having so many versatile players can only be a good thing in todays constantly changing RL.

Typo corrected.

Smith is past his best and I'm not convinced he was ever up to SL standard TBH.

I remember in the old days a versatile player was someone who drank, bitter, mild. lager and cider

Now that's what I call a cocktail.
