Oh yeah I forgot we had Iestyn Harris to move into the halves.
And if the game is tight at half time, we just waste a bench spot as its daft to change your fb in the game especially when the games tight. Other than leeds being 20+ up I don't see a scenario where you'd be comfortable making that change. Either start him or don't bother.
Put it this way, if we're level or close at ht with myler fb and CJ or Smith in the halves and he moved everything round to bring Hooley on in a game we need to win I'd be scratching my head. We don't have the comfort on the table to be experimenting.
I’d normally agree that it’s a waste having a back on the bench, especially when we’ve got second rowers like Martin and McDonnel who could do a reasonable job covering centre if needed.
This week though we’re missing 2 halfbacks in Austin and Sinfield so if we lose another during the game then Myler comes into contention as halfback cover. Good to have a specialist FB to cover Myler if necessary.
