Quote: Cherry_&_White "Think it was just unfamiliarity with the position more than anything else.

I think he could make a very centre, given a bit of perseverance, but personally would like him to stay where he is for now, because he's probably our best winger too!

He might've lost a yard through his injuries, but he's still rapid, and increasingly pace is still only one part of a winger's kit bag anyway.

Might be something for the latter years of his career, but not for now.'"


Some good points made here C&W. He would certainly need some time to develop there as I personally believe that centre is the hardest place on the field to defend. That's tactically and in terms of decision making of course, it is obviously more physically demanding in the middle.

I just think he's worth looking at there again, particularly at the moment as we are blessed with a crop of good wingers that can provide far more than just 'doing a job' for us.

It's always risk/reward with these types of decisions and coaches who are more knowledgable than me will make the call.

Burgess can't get his defensive reads right when he plays wing I'd just leave him where he is

Looks like this will not be an option for a while. I imagine that Marshall will get an extended run but we do not have a centre capable of making him the space that he needs.

You say that, but Marshall's try-scoring record when playing on the left suggests otherwise.

I hope that you are right but at the moment none of our centres seem particularly confident.
