Surely we don't need another winger? Thompson might be a good pick-up, though.

If Burgess goes to Oz as I've heard rumoured then he's the winger cover.

Not sure why we would want to sign a 31 year old second row forward or a winger/fullback, unless Lockers is retiring and Escare/Budgie are leaving.

In my view Sarge's form is good so why leave him out of the side?

He’s played a handful of games at centre.

The amount of people who suggest position switches on this forum is unbelievable.
