probably because bridge is a and ratchford can play ... its not rocket science why people would have this opinion.
having said that, they should be our first choice HB pairing in the big games from now on.

I disagree by labelling of Bridge as a centre.
He was always a hb, brought to Wire to play hb.
Played hb, moved to centre and returned to hb.
He is that good of a player that he can play centre better than anybody else currently at our club but that doesn't make him an out and out centre.

KT I'm surprised at you, Morleys Deckchair I'm not, but you haven't thought it through.
I agree that we could play Myler there because he lacks game time and because Widnes is a game we can take some calculated risk with.
Yet playing Myler to put Bridge right centre is then defeating the point of the switch!!
Myler has only one cause to play at hb, and that is if there is an injury to either R & B.
With that being the case then neither R or B would be fit to play centre.
So you make the team line up with a player who would likely play right centre should R or B not be available, which would be Joel or Currie.
How can you not see that? Or is that rocket science md?
There is absolutely no way that Myler would remove either R & B from first choice hb now on their form as a partnership unless it's a game like Widnes where we can risk resting one like as if one is injured or on a suspension. It's also even less likely that would occur now that we have forwards back in contention.

I didn't think Myler was in the squad this week. Not sure how the conversation has moved to him. The point is that our right centre from recent games is not in the squad so we have to look at replacing him. That might be Bridge, Ratchford, King or even Currie. All can fit in there and there is an argument in favour of each one.

i'd say thats probably bang on, harrison has done his knee twice on that pitch, Ratch crocked his as well at the last game of 2012.

Why did we waste Bridge's Early Guilty Plea then - he could have taken the one game ban if he was going to have a rest anyway!

Doesn't he loose it anyway if he is guilty on a first offence. It only rolls over if he is found innocent.
