Not a 6, but who cares

There certainly seems to be a reluctance with this lad.

I'd have thought they'd have made an appearance as well. Appears neither has much of a future with us.

Also agree that Annakin should have been given a go in this one, maybe for Mariano who still seems to be carrying that thumb/wrist injury to me.

Out of the squad picked I'd give Dean & Johnson the week off.

same but i'd swap murphy and vievers around

Why?

Murphy is a Centre who can cover FB, Vievers is a FB and as far as I'm aware doesn't play centre. Don't quite get your logic on this on - I can see why you might want Murphy at FB but Vievers at Centre - nah.

Vievers is in no way a centre. Played at Bradford and got rounded a little too easy. I rate him fairly but he lacks that yard of pace to cover tackle.

This can be compensated for and not be exposed as easily at fb.

Actually vievers does play centre

Penny hasn't played well in the reserves so doesn't deserve a match in the 1st team. Same with Smith. You'd expect these 2 to stand out (and in Smith's case boss the side) in the reserves but they don't.

When?

I'm not being a pedant but this is what it says on our site - Veivers joins the Wildcats from Wigan Warriors. A close season signing, Veivers is a goal kicking full back with an 80% conversion rate. Josh represented the Warriors in the Academy grand final last season scoring a try in the game. says the same on Wiki though SL has him down as an outside back.

I'm not saying he couldn't play centre but everything I read about him says specialist F/B and no mention of him being a centre. Hence me being unsure as to what value there is to playing both players out of position.

Murphy is down on our site as a Centre though Wiki has him as preferred position FB - however as far as I'm aware he sees himself as a centre long term - though I'm sure he'd take FB if that was on offer.

I'm a big believer in playing players in position where possible. Still it's your choice and it might work.

I would back Vievers like any player no matter where on the field they play but when he played on the outside vs bulls he was caught out and breezed past by more than one player who ran infront then outside of him.

At fb I think Vievers has played well when he was there first few Sl games.
