| My two pence on the subject seeing as I probably started all this a few weeks back 
It would probably make the whole thing clearer if it wasn't centred (pun intended) on King himself. What we miss is someone to make effective early carries on that side. It doesn't really matter if it's King, Keighran or someone else. Miski is far better running in tandem rather than trying to do it himself and I think his stats and performances back that up.
I don't think anyone is suggesting King was some kind of superstar or that he's even in the same league as Wardle. He also has obvious limitations elsewhere in his game. However, he worked well in our systems and with the personnel we have. The right hand side has been far less effective in both attack and defence without him. |

FWIW Dupree's form has fallen off a cliff too IMO and his fitness seems to have dropped also. I will say that Walters has looked slightly better recently though without looking great.

I mentioned on here when we signed AK we would need to change our game to get the best out of him, not sure if Isa being out has caused the lack of change or if we just thought we could transfer him in as like for like, but we cannot.
I’m actually at the point now where, I do think ZE is worth a run a centre even if AK is fit, which I didn’t think I would be saying even a week ago, AK though probably needs to play 6 whilst we have the issues at halfback that we do till French returns.
All form goes out if the window this week and if we can get French and Field back fit at the business end of the season we will be there or there abouts when it comes to the title.'"
I haven’t got a clue how Keighran would go at 6 but injuries will now probably dictate that Eckersley goes to centre and Keighran to 6. Not sure if Keighran has a kicking game but it will be a huge bonus if he has. Saints will be depleted so for me it’s probably up to the senior players to drag out a winning performance and throw our current form out of the window. |

The question there is AK fit ? I'm not having him being outpaced by Rhyse Martin |

I think Keighran played a few games at 6 for the Roosters, didn't he?

Yeah, something looked wrong there. |

Me neither mate but the rumours persist. Tbh I'm not sure I'd play him anyway unless it was 100% that he was totally fit. I'm thinking back to how we brought Harvard back for the Grand Final too early and another 6 weeks or more out for French at this stage would be disastrous!

Didn't the bookies give Saints a 10 start last time? Looks like they learnt their lesson!
