Serious question.

| I think next season we will see Sam move to FB if we can bring in a new half back. If we cant bring in a new half back, then Sam will have to remain at 6. If thats the case though we wont have much of a long kicking game, because Tommy's is poor.

| I think anyone who doesn't want Sam at FB is going to be disappointed next season.

only 2 minutes ago everybody was crying for Amos at FB, the best FB at the club so they where all saying, people need to make their minds up, if it worked or not, Sam imo should stay at 6

| I have to say Amos would be my first choice at 1, i think he is waisted on the wing.
Depending on the balance of the squad I would much rather Sam be in the halves as it stands.

Its all well and good using one performance against a Quins side as a certainty that Sam Tomkins would be an amazing fullback. Whose to say Sam wouldnt have played just as good at six ?... Am i mistaken or did Sam a year younger have a top game at the Stoop last year under Noble ?..
I'm all for it it it works out better for the good of the team, and maybe with the tactics of switching Pat to fullback for Defensive sets it may combat any frailties in Sams game at fb. But does playing Roberts on the wing not limit his attacking ability ? Him and Sam are IMO our most potent attacking players with ball in hand so i still think Sam at 6 and Roberts at 1 is our best option. If we then sign Finch and let Deacon go into coaching we'll have options to rest our Halfbacks/Hookers and keep them fresh for the more important part of the year ie. Playofffs.

Has Sam not worked at 6 this season and most of last? why change things that ain't broke, Amos is far superior at FB than he is at wing

Its not often I agree with you (if ever) but Roberts is by far the best 1 at the club and on form prior to injury maybe in the world. He needs to be used at 1. If we intend to bring in another half it must be at the expense positionally of TL.

In his early career. Once he found his way into the halfback role, he mainly stayed there.

| He was superb at FB for most of the game but he should play 6 for now but I am glad he has had the experience and he will learn from it no doubt.
