| With it looking likely we are not signing a new FB unless these Slater rumors are True (lets be honest though theres more chance of latics winning the PL) who is going to be our 1st choice full back next season?? I'd expect to see Sam start the season and then Amos switching from the wing to FB when Pat is fit again. Who do people think will be 1st choice??

| Sam will be FB for next year. If we have any Injuries in the halves he will move back to there with Richards or Roberts moving to FB

I would say so. Personally for me it would be Roberts though.

| I think it would be too good to be true if Roberts could recapture his form from early this year... just cant see it.

At this time last year, could we see Amos coming within 1/10th of what he was at the beginning of 2010? I don't think so. I just think we'll start with Sam at FB, if only because Paddy is out injured. If Amos shows the form he had at the beginning of this year, then he may very well make the FB spot his own.

| Agree about Amos - he was such a class act before he got injured on Easter Monday.
I've often wondered these past few months how successful Wigan would have been if Roberts had maintained his fitness and form that he showed in the first 2 months of the season. With all due respect he was only a shadow of himself when he played later in the season - starting with the CC Q/F against Leeds.
With a fully fit Roberts would Wigan have won the CC? ( Sorry Wires fans, but imo yes!)
Would playing a CC S/F and Final have impacted on Wigan's form/performances in the Play Offs and thus possibly resulted in us not winning the GF? Maybe.
It is a big ask to do the double with the CC S/F and Final so late in the season - maybe this is the season a team may do it. ( And Wires fans, I don't think it will be Warrington!)

| In all honesty, depending on injuries/form, Wigan could have Sam, Amos or Pat at FB next season. Or if there were lots of injuries, maybe even Marsh or Charnley.
If Wigan's pack is firing and the halves are moving us around the park and kicking well, any of the above at FB will flourish.

| I reckon we'll start with Amos there, providing hes fit. Sam back at 6, Darrell and possibly Charnley/Marsh on the other wing. hopefully Pryce wont be on the other wing as its looking likely hes gonna sign a one year deal!

| No need to change a championship winning team.
Amos needs to earn his place in the team whether it be on the wing or at FB. He has good competition from Charnley, Marsh Richard (injured) and Goulding.
No one in our starting 17 deserves to be dropped.

You earn the right to keep your spot. And winning the GF does exactly that. Reward success with keeping your place. We should carry on exactly how we left off.
Obviously the best thing to do would be to judge how the players are performing in the off season, but if they're all going at it at 100% Gotta stick to the winning team.

Jesus Christ, nest FB in the world?! Please take off the cherry and white tinted specs. Take a look at Billy Slater or Jarred Hayne for starts. They are also Aussie like Roberts who walk into the Kangeroos light years ahead of Amos.

just 3 points for you here.
1. I said maybe
2. Roberts form before his injury was up there with anything i have seen from slater or hayne.
3. He plays over here so wouldnt even get a mention for aussie selection.
