Because he is untouchable on here. He's been poor since he moved to centre, can't think of many that have been as consistently anonymous. The sooner we sign Gleeson the better.
I'd move him back to FB tbh, Phelps has been poor too.

Agree with that.

That's what I thought.All this pressure on Sharp is unfair because the man on his inside is the golden boy at Hull. Don't get me wrong, I rate Whiting really highly and really like him as a player, but simply saying Whiting's best position isn't centre therefore it's ok for him to not be great there isn't good enough.

Phelps will get better, had a much better game last week and will continue to improve IMO.

What is Whiting's best position though? Ask 10 people you'll get 10 different opinions. Mine is that he's the perfect bench player.

That I'm not sure of. He is a great bench player, but I do think he has deserved a starting spot.

He has trained all pre-season at centre and that is the position he has been given this season. He should be experienced enough to know how to defend at centre by now.

Thats whitings problem..jack of all trades, master of none...and a right slug of a runner aswell...id probably say fullback!

In answer to the topic title - no, but I bet Sharp will drop the ball

But you don't deserve a starting spot just on effort and being a nice lad. If I was pushed to give him a position it would be FB.

No I think he deserved it due constistently impressing when he played and giving his all in every game. Like I say, I aren't doubting his ability, but when he is performing poorly fans are actually scared of calling him incase more fans get on his back!

Dropping Sharp would be daft!
All our right sided defences problems aren't Sharp, Long is defending at Centre and is Weak to say the least, with Long darting out the line Whiting does not have the pace to cover the gap left leaving Sharp with egg on his face,

Just an idea but maybe when defending in our 20 could we slot Fitzgibbon out to the right with Long/Obst, Whiting and Sharp and move the second rower at the time into the middle; It would be a big ask but Whiting is a solid defender and having Sharp Whiting Long Fitzgibbon you've got a lot stronger line. I'm pretty sure you'd be asking to much of Fitzy but it's just an idea ....

The simpler solution would be for each defender to spread out by an extra half a metre or so. This would give our defensive line far less compression and mean we don't have 3 on 1 out wide. If the only way we can defend is to put too many men down the middle then we have bigger defensive problems than some think.

I don't see how he's the perfect bench player when most teams play with 4 forwards on the bench and whiting has barely played in the forwards

It would require a change in plan. It's not that difficult, cockle.
