Good post, I think the bit highlighted is the key, with Ben you know what you'll get, and thats good to have in the squad, his on the field qualities are great when the team needs energy injecting into it, but as you say KD can turn a game. I do wonder how much of Chester's reluctance to just throw KD in to the full back role is to do with how much he was burned by Eden last year. He needs to realise that they are very different players, KD seems to be learning from his mistakes, Eden used to just brainlessly make them again and again.

Widnes at home last season.

As fans we cant decide on cockayne or Dixon so imagine how hard it is for Chester
my take on it is i just hope he gets the decision right

Made 43, missed 33.

33/(33+43)=43% missed.

Still not exactly ideal of course.

Ahhh dam it, that's what you get when you're a male species attempting to multi task.
Or at least that's what the wife tells me.

Very good post which sums up perfectly imo the important differences between the two players and highlighting why on this occasion at least, Chester will hopefully opt for Kieran Dixon at fullback against Catalan.
I'm wondering if Chris Chester may actually decide to have BC on the bench.

The fact that supporters cannot agree on who should be playing at fullback has absolutely no bearing on how hard it is for Chester to make a decision. His decision will be made on which player he feels will fit better into his game plan for the match. As supporters we do not know the details of the game plan and so are not in a position to make that decision. Supporters have many reasons for championing particular players. Cult status is one and Ben has this in spades with some supporters. Kieron is beginning to develop his own cult status.

Having said all of that to proceed further we need to win the match. Kieron is a match winner and as a supporter I want him to play tomorrow.

Dixon is your version of Catalan's Escare. They're both potential match winners and surely Chester has to pick Dixon.

If Lunt is fit I can't see him going with either BC or KD on the bench. One will start the other will miss out.
The bench will be Lunt, Donaldson and 2 props.

can see cats going down the middle even though you have forwards back, if you get early scores you will win easily, but if its a slow niggle game then maybe it will be very close,
