I agree with you southern softy. The key is to get the best combination for the team and, in addion, the best combination may be different dependent on the opposition. It's really good for the club that we have both players available. Bevan's value on the wing is greater at present because we're missing Manfredi and Marshall. If both wingers are fit an on form Bevan adds less value on the wing. For the two upcomimng Hull games I think the decision is easy. Bevan probably needs another game to get fully match fit and there's a lot more ground to cover at fullback so keep him on the wing. If Manfredi is back we can move Bibby to centre. If we get beaten by Hull in the league we then have the option of moving Bevan to fullback for the cup game which may give them something else to think about.

Zak looks like his younger days at Leeds!

Advantage we have, both French and Hardaker are versitile (FB/Wing, FB/Centre respectively).

As it stands, no issues with either or playing at 1. The question mark arises when 1-5 are fully fit (if) and Bibby keeps scoring. Someone pays the penalty......suppose it creates healthy competition and it gives us more depth.
