Current thoughts - Mago out or get running up them plantations, get fit or get rid. Maybe a back up halfback, someone with a bit of experience on a short term deal. Big tall strong running second rower, like a McMeekin or Sironen type back rower.
We could do with hiring Kris Radlinski to coach Mathers in the role of fullback, seriously. Even if its just for a month or two and in that time for him to play in the reserves.
Coley should put some weight on (especially in his legs they are like chopsticks) and run the ball in harder in pairs with another forward with Tommy or Mathers on the back of them instead of one up rugby.
Sam Tomkins should have been on the bench for the Wakey game seeing as though their pack weren't up to much there was no need for all forwards on our bench, Riddell can play prop with Tommy to Hooker, Smith to Scrum Half and Tomkins Stand Off.
I love the kind of replies people put on here, 'Hey we could get Radlinkski in to coach Mathers' ... 'we could get Shaun Edwards to coach Wigan and f**k his big time salary in rugby union off!' ... Before I heard someone say put Pryce' at f***ing stand off... WTF!??! Some people have no idea ... Do you really think, that they will bring Radlinski in to coach Mathers? No way... It doesn't do any good for Mathers confidence for one... 'Hey ritchie, your poop mate, all your experience in Australia etc. and at Leeds has done f*ck all mate, so we're bringin radlinski in to teach you a few things' ...

Specialist coaching mate, doesnt have to be Rads but hes been the best the best fulllback in the superleague era and prob best ever Wigan fullback so I think maybe he could give Mr Mathers a few pointers to help with his game. Should have been done in the off season though.

Crikey, aggressive posturing is getting to be the norm on this website. Calm down, pal, or you'll have to spend every hour of every day writing essays on here to justify your opinions.

Mathers has no heart to play fullback. Rads had it in spades but he'll never be able to coach it into someone else. You've either got it or you haven't.

Indeed.
Mathers is to SL Fullback as what Audley Harrison is to Heavyweight Boxing.
