You can't loan Manfredi out at this stage of the season. He'll pay for Wigan reserves on Wednesday and I guess if he comes through a full game will be in contention for the Saints game.

| I’d be a bit hesitant at chucking him back in after only a handful of reserve games and in all honesty I wouldn’t play him this season at all.

Depends on where he is in his development? If he's ready and looking good he's too much of a talent to have missing out.

Yeah I think the Marshall injury forces our hand to a certain extent. Escare is too short to defend kicks effectively on the wing. Teams would target him big time. Plus it makes the kick to the corner a none-option for ourselves.

Is he greatly different in size to Marshall?

I could be wrong, but I'm fairly sure that Marshall (himself a fairly short winger) is still taller than Escare. I won't look up the playing stats as they tend to be wrong. Plus Marshall has presumably spent the last decade or so up to this point playing on the wing and learning to overcome his height disadvantage. Like many, I'd play Escare at FB with Tomkins at SH. I'd run with Manfredi on the wing, and if he isn't ready, I'd stick Sarginson there, as he is taller and has played well there for us previously when required.

I think Escare would be as good if not better than Marshall under the high ball as a former FB. Marshall was very suspect when targeted with high kicks again larger, taller wingers. I would rule out Escare as a replacement winger just cause of his height.
Don't see the point in moving Sarge to the wing over Escare or Manfredi.

| Would it be safe to say Escare is fully fit now ?
A couple of months ago he looked like he was dragging a fridge behind him when put in the clear, no-one was catching him at the weekend, great to see.

| Mullen is a quality option for the wing also, we really are quite blessed in that position. Marshy is likely out till Mid-March/Early-April 2020.
