Justin Morgan wanted to move Welham to full back but he told him he didnt want to play there. Personally i think he would make an excellent full back.

30596_1286642206.jpg If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

| I don't think Welham reads the game well enough or has about him to organise the defence to play full back, and that's before we get to his one on one tackling.

He should have no choice in where he plays. If a coach asks you to play somewhere then you should put your hand up and do it. For a start he should be on the wing next week as a wake up call and then gradually interchanged with Mcdonnell throughout the season with Sherriff getting some opportunities on the wing and full back aswell.
Lets face it the best we can hope for this year is a fight for 8th place and get knocked out in the first round of the play offs. (unless Hull clinch 5th obviously).
I said this last season and i will say it again this, i would much rather see us spend the rest of this year blooding youngsters so that they are ready to really go for it next year and maybe also experiment a bit positionally.

The only thing with Webb is he turns 33 before next year. I'm not sure about his temperament - realistically, he'd be likely have more opportunities to sulk with us than he's had at Leeds. Talented, mind.
This year may be a little early for Sheriff, but he's 20 in September (wiki says), so if he is going to make the breakthrough at all, you'd assume it wouldn't be too far away. His bad injury has maybe put him back a bit, tbf.
The more I look at it, we either get another similar player from the fringes in Aus or go with Sheriff Hall/Welham/Hodgson covering. There's not much in SL, and with Salford, Hull, and maybe Leeds looking, we'll have a better chance of strengthening elsewhere in the team.
While McDonnell remains at Rovers, supporters should support him fully, just as we'd expect players who we're letting go to give their all still. We signed him for a season and he's giving us a season - it's just business and there shouldn't be any hard feelings.

If your talking about Mckinnon he offered to stay until the end of the season and would have done if we never found a replacement.

He was a decent player before his union switch, now he seems to be nothing more than an average utility back.
Kearney from the Bulls?

If that's true about Welham then he can feck off now for me. I'm sure he loves the adoration of scoring 25+ tries a season and realises that left centre is the only position where Dobson will put that many on a plate for him.
He wouldn't be in my 17 for the Cas game, but I'm not coach, but he should certainly play wherever he's asked to. However, the thought of him at full back scares the out of me.

| In a few weeks it seems, McD has gone from zero to hero.
I'll admit he's improved, but he still offered very little from a defensive pov (imo).
Anyway moving on. I'm with RBA. McD now offers nothing for the remaining games this season.
We need to look at all options available within the club for either a full time replacement or someone who could aptly cover if/when the time comes in the future.

How bad is moltzen? Bad injury in 2010 came back and played Origin in 2011- cant be THAT bad under the high ball surely? Think he'll get a gig in the NRL though as not that long ago he was off to the Roosters then turned the contract down.'"
He's never played origin, do you mean city v country?
Roosters? do you mean the Dragons? He signed a 3 year deal with them last season but got out of it because Wests never agreed to release him from the last year of his deal.

But apart from that, he's spot on!
