My thoughts exactly. We bought him as a replacement, so should use him as one!! If it looks like it isnt going to work, then we can switch it. :angry:

He's too young and not ready. The boy has only just signed for the team, is still a teenager and has neither the size nor the experience to play stand-off for the first team yet. Remember - he is one who has been signed for the future, not immediate cover for Barrett.

I saw him play at Whitehaven and thought he looked OK. but he has a long way to go yet before Nobby would think of chucking him in at Super League level.

Withers had a great game at stand-off against Salford, and can play in any of the positions from 1 to 6. Lockers can do a good job there too, despite what the anti-Lockers brigade would have you believe.

One thing is clear already this season - Nobby does not intend to rely on inexperienced youngsters if he can possible avoid it. At prop, he doesn't have a choice, at stand-off he does.

I don't think Withers has ever played stand off in his life has he?!?!?!
Yes when Iestyn Harris was injured, he was used at stand off with Marcus St Hilaire/Pratt switching to full back at the time.

He seems to naturally fit that position and has more experience than Flanagan.
