| I know that "the 1st name on the team sheet" is a bit of a cliché but who would it be?
As good as his cover was last season, it still would be Tom Johnstone for me.

Ashurst for me, perhaps Arona, maybe Finn, could be Tupou, might be Miller ..... Fifita .... Randell ... etc etc
What a good situation to be in!

Hmmm, strange having number 25 spare though, why didn't we initially move everyone from 26 down up a number? ![Smile icon_smile.gif](images/smilies//icon_smile.gif)

There is no dilemma imo the other two are good wingers, Johnstone was and I assume still is a brilliant winger, near world class imo.
The only competition is between the other two unless, Tom has had a personality transplant or his injury has failed to mend - neither appear likely.

So you are picking on reputation then?
You have 4 wingers if you include Tupou who have done a great job on the wing. All have had try of the round awards.
It's a nice dilemma to have.

Yes it is a nice dilemma
Never before in my long association with the club have we had so many 'true' wingers on the books.
It's very difficult comparing many of todays players with the great side of the 60's because it was a very different game then - the forwards for instance have a different role today BUT the wingers we have today would fit very nicely into those great teams of the past.....I hope they return!

No I'm picking on ability, nobody has any real form at the start of a new season.

Yes it's the one area where we haven't an established replacement like last year with Williams. But Wood can cover SH and Randall can cover SO and we have a young lad coming through Ackroyd as well. So we'd have to go with an 80 minute Hooker if anything happened to the halves.

If you look at other SL clubs they have no more genuine cover than us. Finn, Miller, Wood, Randell, Ackroyd and even Grix at a pinch can all play in the halves. I don't think many clubs have more pivot players than that tbh.

Like I said it would be nice but it isn't that worrying, especially as I forgot Grix can play in the Halves as well.
On the whole, when I look through the squad, I can't think of a time in my years of watching where we have as many places covered tbh. The pack is a monster with options in the front row, back row we have plenty, similarly the s, Wing & FB the same. I think the Club must have done some right wheeler dealing to get as much as we have. ![Very Happy icon_biggrin.gif](images/smilies//icon_biggrin.gif)
