would it be worth pushing charnley in one, he is supposed to naturally be a centre, and giving king/a fit amos a go?'"
Aye, I've hoped against hope that he'd improve out at centre, but he simply hasn't. He doesn't have the hands to play the position.

Thanks for the input flower; duly noted your inability to read the original comment outlining him as the best British second row. He clearly isn't.

The point of the OP was that we are playing a great second row at centre. So what if hes not 'the' best? He could be, if we stop playing him at centre.

Do you really think if there were any decent centres available then Maguire would have passed that opportunity and kept Joel there? Yet again you're missing the point, im not saying hes a rubbish centre, im not saying i know better than Michael Maguire, neither am I saying that Joel is the best second row ever, all im saying is that he is better at SR than he is at Centre.

If you don't bother to go to the game when you live in the locality then you are not really a fan and therefore your views are invalid. It's simple.:icons39ad_files/4821-1859san_c-msnicons.jpg |

If you recall, but i know it does not suit your argument, we had a problem earlier in the season with our first choice centre. JT stepped up and has done reasonably well. But he is not a centre.
