I'm still really happy with the signing. He can cover all positions in the back 5 and even at stand off if we needed him. What is wrong with having a utility player like Sarginson in the squad? He has done his job well this year filling in for Charnley at times earlier in the season like on Good Friday. He had also filled in at full back when he has been needed. Most of his time has been filling in for Thornley while he has been out. What is wrong with that? Would people rather we chucked an 18 year Olson for cover? He is a strong runner with ball in hand and a decent defender and a real competitor.

He is currently first choice back up which in RL generally means he will play most games due to the amount of injuries.

Ratchford has done well for years in a similar situation at Warrington and is now emerging as a key player for them.

I see no harm done that he currently hasn't nailed down a position. He has filled in far better than an 18 year old could have done this season. Physically he has all the attributes and if his best position turns out to be somewhere other than centre, who cares? He has done a superb job learning as he goes.

I don't think he will ever make it as a centre. I think it is interesting to compare him to Burgess in terms of how they look as RL players (obviously not positionally). Burgess who is even younger looks an absolute natural. Sarginson in comparison looks like a very physically fit bloke who gives his all (which will go down well with Wane) but doesn't really know what he is doing.

I also don't think you can persist with him in the playoffs. It's not the place to have an apprentice and if we have to it isn't his fault but I don't think it will work.

He looks far more comfortable at fullback where he is more often on the end of plays rather than someone who has to put someone else on the end of a play.

Really?

I could play in any position from 1-7, doesn't mean I wouldn't be any good. The more I see of Sarginson the more he reminds me of Cameron Phelps, another who could supposedly play anywhere but wasn't particularly good anywhere either.

Needs a ball of his own. I he isn't going to pass then put him on the wing and move Manfredi to inside centre.
Plan... Put home in a room and get him to pass the ball against each wall for a hour or two. Sorted.

Thank goodness you arent coaching our team!
