I only see Shenton. Wheeler isn't going to make it and he's no centre even on the one weekend in five he decides he'll risk his precious little self in the game.

I'd sacrifice Soliola for the Centres and play him in the back row to get Matai on board. It may happen with Lomax moving to the wing for a season.

I can see soliola playing most of his rugby in the back row next season too.

Re: Rumours thread. : Mon Jul 12, 2010 10:30 pm  

So can i but that still leaves Shenton and Wheeler. Wheeler will have a starting number next season imo.

Soliola has never had great pace, add 18 month out injured to that and no way he should be our first choice centre.

He played backrow in last 2yrs in NRL anyway.

Matai would be awesome signing but can't see it coming off.

We do have a history of marquee centres .....

Re: Rumours thread. : Tue Jul 13, 2010 9:30 pm  

Matai's not that good. Hardly Jamie Lyon.
