Player outside of 17 gets chance to play at super league level with a top team. Callback option after a month.
Great for him. Even better for us. Win win win

Re: Nogger : Mon Feb 08, 2016 11:50 am  

Seems a strange one to me. Good for him to get game time at a good club, but I see him as an important part of the squad and expect him to be needed alot this year.

If Shaul doesn't travel then the most obvious option is to put Carlos at full back and shuffle the back line about, but if Fonua is out then it starts to look a little makeshift.

For me it would be Carlos, Lancaster, Talanoa, Logan, Michaels. However I can see Radford just bringing Yeaman in.

Surely puts the rumour to bed that Shaul, might not play this weekend.

Good move to get him some gametime, we can recall him after a move also.

Re: Nogger : Mon Feb 08, 2016 12:14 pm  

... Shaul's partner is expecting this month. Maybe he said he'd play if no one else was available?

If Shaul is a doubt for the trip to France then letting Naughton go on loan now seems odd. Should Shaul not make it then I can see Radford putting Carlos to FB and bringing Yeaman in at Centre.

This.

Hopefully Fonuas injury from Friday won't be too bad. As another poster said, it does seem odd that we were getting Smith in to cover the backs, and now we could end up with two less than we'd hoped.

Re: Nogger : Mon Feb 08, 2016 12:32 pm  

I'd be really disappointed if we move Carlos, looks a real threat there and something we have lacked for years.

The other option is Pryce to FB and play Abdul.

Whiting to FB?
