In my opinion, when Pat is back in the first team, he should go to FB and let Sam go to 6.
For two reasons.
1. Sam seems to be becoming too predictable at FB with just a running game and less of a passing/kicking input.
2. Pat, while he might not be the greatest attacking fullback, he is the best in the league at dealing with kicks and is big enough and has the positional awareness to defend at fullback as well as returning the ball like a forward.
I feel the last two games have shown that we are lacking a bit in defence at the back and Pat can provide that. I personally feel that a fully confident Amos is a better fullback than Pat but at the moment he isnt showing that fully.
After a few games the two (Pat and Amos) should swap to a more suitable role for each. but only when both are back up to speed (and confidence). As much as I think Sam suited FB last season, he seems to be missing his unpredictable element this season because he almost seems easier to target by other teams while playing at fullback. After tonights game, Me and other fans watching agreed that Richards to fullback would be a good move in the short term.
