i imagine someone in australia would have said the same as that if someone had suggested slater, before he hit the big time with his origin try, would go on to be as good a fullback as lockyer had been

Fair play to Riley, he has looked good the last couple of weeks but i can't see him keeping Mathers out of the team once he is fully fit. I would go with experience.... another problem lies if Mathers does get into the team, where will Riley play? im not sure i would have him on the wings at this moment in time....

Mathers will have to earn his place in the reserves and on current form Riley more than deserves to stay where he is.

I agree dont think it would be fair ,as riley is playing very well at the moment

Stick with Riley, Mathers has to earn his place with performances in training and reserves
