Bad news for Hull this, I'd fancy our chances more if you had Mathers at FB rather than Richards/Roberts

But then again Hull FC have their own Cameron Phelps in the shape of Todd Byrne, possibly the worst player in Rugby League history.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Phelps at fullback, as he was o.k. there v Leigh.
Goulding then to centre.

Less disruption to the team that way.

What do people think of Mathers at wing? I recall him being sent there on a couple of occasions last season when Pat was moved to FB.

Obviously we want specialist wingers on the wing I know, but if Noble wants to draft him in again after his ban I wonder if he will put him there first?

No chance, his defence quality would get caught out on the wing. Teams would have a field day against him.

I'm sorry to say but IMO he doesnt deserve to be anywhere neat the Wigan side.

Interesting shout. Pat should stay on the wing, Phelps or Amos should play FB, then Goulding in at centre.

I know this place will explode, but if we continue to be weak in defence in the 3/4's then Bailey will end up playing centre at times this year.
