Is Pryce fit though?

| Quote: NickyKiss "I wouldn't be against us shifting Richards over to that right wing to come up against King with Ainscough on the left but doubt Maguire will go that way.
The easiest way may just be to put Richards in at fullback so we can leave Roberts on that right side and bring Ainscough in one the left to play against Reilly. We also have the options of Pryce or Goulding(who did well on the wing for Salford) so at least we've got the cover.
I'd expect whoever does come in to be choming at the bit.'"
I think Richards is the only winger tall enough to nullify King's threat, if they nullified each other I'd be happy

| Why not just replace a full back with a full back and bring Vievers into the side and leave Roberts were he is .

Vievers will more than likely get a chance whilst phelps is out but i don't think it will be against wire.

Because he isn't good enough and won't ever be.
A national league player in all likelihood, might scrape a place in a low-placed SL side.

It's an option thats for sure and would cause the lease disruption to the partnerships players are building up.
I'm looking forward to watching whoever gets the shot.

Its a massive game next week and not the time to blood a rookie at full back. Its got to be Amos or Richards.

| tbh id rather keep it like the second half and have joel going centre with gleeson on the wing than put pryce in. Despite laughing at first joel went pretty well at centre last night, far better than pryce has done.
Id say either go as we were or go with PR to FB and lets give ainscough a run. If roberts can transform into such a player under mcguire, ainscough should be world class this year as the only failing he's ever had was under the high ball which he must have worked on under the new regime.

I've actually said before I wouldn't mind seeing Joel Tomkins get a regular run at centre if we had an injury there. He's got the pace, the hands and he'd be huge in comparison to most of his opposite numbers.
He's obviously going to be a second row/loose forward in the main but it's always nice to have options.

Would be a good idea if Joel was on same centre as Kings wing. His strength would be vital./

| He is a different player to the one we saw last year that is for sure. Last year he would not take the man on down the wing and didn't look half as interested as he does this year. I'd love to see how many touches of the ball he makes this year compared to last year. It just goes to show we were right to question the reasons for his failings, because the quality has always been there, but for some reason or another we just didn't see it! I'm with DaveO on this one and think the answer is definitely in the coaching. What else can it be?
