Glad that my original question has got a decent answer. Think Drinkwater will go well behind a refreshed and beefed up pack playing alongside Williams. IF we were to sign a decent centre I might start to think we have a chance of winning something again.

Ratchford is fine at centre and will do a good job.I've no issues with left centre other than if ratchford is injured who moves there until Wrench is fit?

I wonder why Drinkwater was such a late, late acquisition, and that bothers me.
I'm reserving judgement until 6 games into 2023, which should tell us whether there's a change in desire and structure on the field of play from last year.

A few options. Minikin at Centre, move Thewlis to Centre and either Russell or Minikin on the wing or move a SR, either Currie or Nicholson, to Centre with Harrison going to SR.

There were media reports from Australia linking us to various Half-Backs (as there always are), when nothing came off we got the 'Ratchford is the answer' comment from DP, then Drinkwater became available late in the day and we moved for him.

Looks like a decent outcome, on paper.

Time will tell, and rather him at HB than Ratchford.

Sounds very positive, hopefully we will see the best of Williams who is definitely our best player, but has so far been used wrong IMO. He's an incredible runner of the ball and his short kicking game is great. Game control isn't one of his greater strengths though so I'm hoping drinkwater and a pack that makes more ground will give Williams a much better platform to give us a shot on all fronts this season.
