Sammut. Play him at FB allowing Whiting to have a year at centre and Turner to stay in the halves.
If Long stays fit I'm more than happy to keep Turner at stand off. Use Horne for 6/7 cover.

I think we need to see how Horne bounces back before he becomes only cover.

For me a fully fit Horne is the best 6 we have. With Long at 7 i'd play Turner centre and Whiting Full back. If Sammut signs i'd move Sammut to full back and Whiting to centre with Turner missing out.

I think Turners pace and running game eclipses Horne's. That's exactly what we need alongside Long IMO. Plus the kids got a pass and half on him.
He'll end up like Whiting, shoved around and never getting a fair crack at a single position.

Personally if they get Sammut then id expect him to play in the halves and whiting and horne fighting out the fb spot. Id personally have horne at fb and whiting at centre

Were in for Phelps

I agree. Turner deserves game time at 6

when we signed him people raved about how much potential he has got - so we should give him a run at 6

even if we signed Sammut I think Horne should be our FB and allow Sammut to cover 6, 7 and 9. Whiting deserves to stay in the centres and given the number of injuries we get Sammut will be nearly always get a start

better than nothing i guess but if we're sacking tansey i would take Sammut/Chase over Phelps any day of the week

Oh FFS, does this mean the Sammut deals off again now? It was looking promising last night.

I do not know about the Sammut deal was just told we are in for Phelps.

Same here, but like you say better than nothing.

I've given up trying to keep track TBH. T'was doing my head in.

I've not seen Turner this pre-season but from what i saw last year i would strongly disagree about his running game and i've not seen any evidence of his passing or kicking game. What i did see was Horne hit his straps early in the year and look like the Horne of old before his new injury.

Horne every time for me when fit.

From what I've seen of Turner we should not have to rush Horne back from his injury. But i remember Horne showing some really good form before his injury and i'm with you mate, when fully fit, Horne every time!

After seeing Turner in both pre season games he has done a fair job considering but when/if (big IF) Hornes is fit I would have Horne in over Turner unless Turner really starts to excel at 6 in the coming weeks.

For me just think a fit Horne on form has more to offer at 6 alongside Long than Turner, but now is the time for Turner to grab his opportunity and make the position his.

Phelps is DESPERATE to play for anyone whether in the NRL or Super League, so nobody has shown any interest in him, surely he must be the last option if Chase and Sammut deals aren't going anywhere? Wouldn't offer Phelps a deal unless there is no chance of Sammut or Chase
