I do not see any way that he cannot be, well apart from the fact our coach seems hell bent against it, but in the current circumstances there really is no other option.

Where do we play him? 1, 6, or 9?

In all seriousness, with Riddell lacking fitness and McIllorum banned, Sam has to come in on the bench. With the pressure on Noble as it is, O'Loughlin to 6 isn't going to help in the overall relation to what we might achieve.

Is Sam a 6 or a 7?

If B.N. picks sam tomkins and or shaun Ainscough will he get the credit for doing so, as it seems to me he can't really win which ever choices he may make. I'm not B.N, biggest fan but if he does choose to play sam and shaun then it goes against his whole ethos of rugby league being to expansive , brave call either way for me .

Agreed.

It's not worked so far leaving him out has it?

I thought he had a relatively quiet game but Eastmond was very poor.
