Stunning???

Why? They haven't exactly been a big success when played together.

Where did i say they had? I feel he can give much more in attack than relying on westerman and horne. I don't know if you went to saints, i did, and our attacking direction was terrible. We played with 1 halfback, horne, who we all know isn't creative, and Washy and Westy just ran around doing their thing :p
Turner for me over Westy or Washy

No but my point is it has been tried tested and failed so why go back to it? That is one of the main problems with Agar he seems to be of the mind that the more you persist with something it will eventually go right. Rather than trying something different .

I would put whiting up there, he certainly has the brain to do a job and played halfback before he came to us and lets be fair he cannot do any worse than some of the combintions we have tried over the last 3 years.

I wouldn't disagree with that either buddy
My point was the Horne/Turner partnership has been most successful over the Horne/Washy and Horne/Westy partnerships, as proved once again last week!

Cant argue with that Whiting. But surely it's time to try something different.

18th washy but no dount washy will be in for kent

"stunning" doesn't necessarily mean good lol, ive been stunned a few times this season and not for the right reasons!

I'd like to think I'd say try whiting in the halves, but I can't bring myself to suggest anything other than Horne/turner as the safest choice from what we have available.

1. Phelps
2. Sharp
3. Turner
4. Yeaman
5. Briscoe
6. Whiting
7. Horne
8. O'Meley

10. Moa

14. Fitzgibbon
15. Lauaki
16. Radford
17. Washbrook

Glad to see Sharp back, i'd be happy to see Whiting in the halves but don't think he will be.

We need whiting in the halves if no Obst , we need a bit of a rugby brain there - Turner in the centres .

Whiting
Sharp
Turner
Yeaman
Briscoe
Horne
Phelps
Orge
Houghton
Moa
Manu
Tickle
Westerman

Washy
Radford
Lauaki
Kent.

If Fitz isn't 100% this week I'd give him another to recover to have him raring to go for the cup game.

I also read of the FC site that Dowesy had a knock this week, so I'd rest him too and get him right. If Phelps doesn't make it then Turner to 6, Whiting to full back, Crooks to right centre and Briscoe and Sharp to swap wings.
