Another great shout.
Re: Full back suggestions
Not a bad shout but he needs to improve under the high ball. Given he is young he has time on his sideAndrew6666 wrote:I would quite like to see Minikin tried at fullback as a long-term replacement for Zak. Also started life as a centre as Zak did. Imo Minikin in very similar player to Zak and is young enough to be moulded. Then use Lo and Eden on the wings, Wardle Shenton and Webster to fight out for centres.Casmoley wrote:duke street 10 wrote:Could Joe Wardle be the answer?
I know it sounds desperate, but i don't like the idea of moving Roberts from his best position.
No. I think if you're going to move anyone other than Roberts it would be Jy Eden Minikin Lo.

Re: Full back suggestions
Much depends on what happens with Zak and if the club want him back but I don't see them throwing the transfer fee down the drain. Roberts is 32/33 now so probably has another two years at top level so it might make sense to move him to full back (hence the signing of Jamie Ellis) after which Zak probably comes back into contention.
That should keep the side settled without too much disruption or anybody really being out of position.

Re: Full back suggestions
Its a shame Ash Robson decided he wanted part time rugby I think CAS saw him as a full back, we have the current GB under 19 full back it would be crazy not to try him in the friendly's to see how he goes

Re: Full back suggestions
Nobody suggested Minikin yet. I think the lad has hell of a lot going for him talent wise, a good rugby league brain and would be an asset anywhere in the backs......just a thought.

Re: Full back suggestions
When we played Wakefield to secure the league leaders shield he dropped everything that was sent his way. He dropped a couple and his confidence totally went. I actually think Minikin is too dependant on how the first 10-15mins go for him. We don’t want a fullback that once he drops one totally loses confidence. Just my opinion.davenrtn123 wrote:Nobody suggested Minikin yet.

All coaching is, is taking a player where he can't take himself.
Re: Full back suggestions
He was spewing his guts up during the grand final. Would be a bag of nerves at full back.

Re: Full back suggestions
I think David Mead had shown he'd be a good option for a year or two.

Re: Full back suggestions
Totally agree he’s a centre and a good strong one at that imo he didn’t look comfortable under any of those kicks in the game he is big strong and a younger Webster.fords wrote:Nogateman wrote:another name to throw into the hat, OGODO the only match the lad played in the first team is on the wing he took some high balls he is tall and fast
Re: Full back suggestions
who ever gets the full back roll is going to be compared with ZAK its going to be a big ask, Roberts seems to be the fans Favourite, other names from within the team LO, Shenton , Minikin, OGODO, Eden, plus our under 19 full back Turner have been mentioned,, we have three or four friendly's coming up hopefully one of these will put is name on the number one shirt
