The only reason that Greenwood has been better than Donlan this year is cos we aint been playing Donlan in his natural position of FB..... we put him there and he will outclass Greenwood easilly.

didnt he play at full back on Sunday? Cant remember him hardly touching the ball... or getting involved. Donlan is pasdt his best & as some others have said on here, SL clubs played him on the wing.

Fair dos - he was kept pretty busy, trying to guess which of half a dozen attacking players to tackle, on each set!

Have to say Mort for me at full back keep saying this, dont think Donlan played much at full back when in SL always saw him on the wing at Cas when on tv plus dont think Mort is suited to the wing he likes to be in the thick of it looking for the ball ,you only have to see his points tally to see where he is best suited.

He's actually filled in at dummy half on a few occasions already this season, and played there on a semi-regular basis when at Wigan IIRC. Although I wouldn't pick him ahead of Jock (should the real Jock reappear at some point in the near future), it's certainly an option.

No he's only our second top try scorer behind Durbin, who didn't even play yesterday.

when he recieves a ball deep in our own half, 1st tacklers gets him. 9 times out of 10. In a decent Leigh side, he wouldn't even have made the bench. Donlan's only potition is full back.

The Mort/Donlan debate will go on and on, everyone has a different opinion on it.

Mort's only position is full back whereas Donlan is proven in Super League on the wing and in the centre. Mort also has been had a better return on points when playing at full back.

He's played Hooker at Wigan, hes lightning off the mark, he can pass from dummy half what more does he need shin pads?

Stanton has never played hooker before. I asked him in Toulouse has he ever player there and he said never. Lets just keep him on the wing.
