Tansey has to move to 7. I know it's not ideal to move him from a position where he's playing so well and where he wants to play, but he's the only player we have with anything like the skills and personality to play there.
My order of preference for players to drop in at 6 alongside him would be Whiting, Hall, Turner. I've ruled out Horne as I don't think he's fit and Washy as he isn't a 6. The problem is that Whiting will need to move to FB (I really don't think we have any other decent options) leaving Hall and Turner. Hall edges it for me as he has the right skills, is most dangerous ball in hand, and has played well there before. Turner OTOH seems to be a better bet at centre judging on the pre-season games.
Far from ideal, and I'll probably change my mind a few times, but ATM that's the best I can come up with.'"
I have changed my mind 5 times and it is only Monday 
Turner 6 for me, stronger defence. |

Hall's defence looked fine yesterday. 
Turner didn't get glowing reports from his stint in the halves against Sheffield, so that's why I've put him at centre where he played well against Rovers. I just feel that throwing him in at 6 while we're having a mini crisis might not be his best introduction to the role.

horne and turner halfbacks. leave tansey at fullback but he will act as a halfback in attack. washy at halfback NO. whiting and hall again NO.

wasn't it Tansey and Washy that played against quins back end of last season. I'd check on FC website but no ones put 50p in the meter yet

TBF to Turner is was his first run out(as a h/back)...Barry Mac said on TV in his opinion Turner was the bigger loss to Salford than Myler 
The kid won awards 2006/7..played h/back for G/B under 20s, he was brought in as a utility player to cover centre and h/backs, he has to be broken in and Quins at home maybe the place to do it. Sheffield was his first run out with our team, players missing etc, he is worth a punt imo

I seem to remember a certain Mr. Thorman playing most weeks. |

It's an option I wouldn't be dead set against. I didn't see the Sheffield game so am relying on second-hand reports of how he did, whereas I've seen Hall play SO to a good standard.
If Turner went to SO and Hall to centre I wouldn't be too worried TBH. It would almost have to be a better option than Horne and Washy.

THANK YOU Mr. PEARSON, FOR RIDDING US OF FCKWIT FUBAR, CEO TOOL AND THE STINKING UNCLE KATH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WHY DON'T THE DOBBINS PLAY IN GREEN SHIRT, GREEN SHORTS AND GREEN SOCKS IN ORDER TO EXPRESS THEIR INFINITE ENVY OF EVERYTHING BLACK AND WHITE??:icons42da_files/5424-2890lipst1ck_d0rk-msnicons.jpg |

If Horne plays, it has to be at SO. Personally, I wouldn't have him in the 17 but continuing to use him at SH is total madness ! We keep hearing RA talk about the "strength" of our squad so we must have a better option at halfback than Washbrook/Horne. Surely ??

What's all this about Washy?? It was his first game of the year! Are we all forgetting that this kid was superb at 6 in 08' with countless 7's alongside him this kid really showed upand made it into a few coaches teams of the year. Would rather have him at 6 than anybody else we've got. Alongside Long or Tansey he could be very good IMO.

Don't recall him ever being 'superb' TBH. He's OK there but not much more IMO.
Where did we finish in 2008 again? |

I admire Washy he is a good player, however I would not consider he was superb, he did a job. |
