Sarginson played a few good games at Fullback, that doesn't warrant a starting spot ahead of Bowen or Hampshire, especially considering the amount of changes that could potentially follow.bomhead wrote:its about playing the best squad and players being used to there best that's it! so if a player shows brilliance in a position because he covered an injury in a match we should just put him back to where he was next week without looking into it - so if you play at 13 as a winger that's it your a winger seems a bit stupid to me - ST would have never been switched to fullback had it not been for injury's but he should have just been moved straight back to the halves?nathan_rugby wrote:It depends to what level you expect them to play? Yes we see many Fullbacks/Wingers, Fullbacks/Stand-offs, Second Row/Centre...Wintergreen wrote: Of course you are right in one respect.
However, the drift to a "ubiqutious" size and shape of an RL player is quite interesting. (or more accurately 2 or 3 at most).
It's not beyond the realms of possibility for the same player to play
Full Back
Winger
Centre
Second Row
Loose Forward
Or another to play
Stand Off
Scrum Half
Hooker
Which really leaves the Props, and again no-one would bat an eyelid at a second row or loose forward filling in.
However, one of the hot topics on this forum is one half suggesting we stick to known and best positions and the others stating everyone needs swapping around. If we listened to half of the people on this forum our team would look something like.
1 - Sarginson
3 - Charnley
4 - Tomkins
8 - Lockers
9 - Bateman
Iv read Sam Tomkins to centre, Hampshire to Hooker, Flower to loose forward. So many people are hell bent on swapping the whole team around based on a couple of attributes they see or that 20 minutes that Bateman played well at left centre.
Yeah it may work during a match to cover injuries or for the odd game, but you are never going to win the league with so much change generally.
the best squad we have with current players in my eyes is
1.Sarge
2.Dom
3.Gells
4.Ian T or give Josh a go at 3 or 4
5.Budgy
6.powell or rocky
7.Smith
8.Mossop
9.MM
10.Club
11.Faz
12.Joal
13.Bateman
bench
George - back cover
lockers - prop
Tautia - second row or prop cover
Larne - battering ram
beat anyone these lot would
Give Charnley a go at centre based on what? His poor form the back end of last year and this year in his own position, so try him at a position he played for 5 games at HKR about 4 years ago?
Ian T - How many times has he played in the past two years? He is surely 3rd/4th in line at centre until he proves his fitness and game quality again.
Powell or Hampshire at 6 - Over George who has played there really well all year compared to Hampshire who hasn't been able to prove it and Powell who doesn't really offer much at all.
Lockers at prop - Based on what?
You are literally living in a dream world, this isn't a fantasy team were you switch and move players around or Fifa.
