Quote: Last Son of Wigan "I do see your point. But I feel he's been tried and tested for this season as a half in the most critical time of year. As a fb he's not guiding us around the park but playing off the back of two experienced halves in our structure as a strike weapon in a position he's familiar with. He's actually played far more games as a FB than half.
I have to be careful what I say as I think Zak is a great player, and I would always have him on the pitch. For me, for a trial, I'd play him at centre or even on the wing.
All I'm campaigning for his for French to be given a shot at FB. I don't think for this season, we're getting the best out of French at 6.'"
As I yours. It’s hypothetical really as to whether we’d get the best out of him at FB, HB or wing, though I do take the point that he’s had his chance in the latter two.
It’s a tough call to make, it’s giving me a headache so I feel for Adrian Lam! But unfortunately we both know it’s going to be Zak at FB, Tommy in the halves and Powell at hooker with French on the bench satisfying neither of us and not changing one iota about the attack.
