    Option 3: Tom Symonds
    Option 1. Yes
    Option 2. Yes, but maybe 3 or 4 games. Play Henry in the centres at the jets and see how he goes, he may surprise.
    Option 3. NO WAY, hole running back rower like Maubs. I think one of them will be released either mid or end of next year. We have too many backrowers on our books and there both in the same mode.
    For me I'd have Cordner,Guerra,Maubs,Taka,Bosden and fingers crossed SBW as our backrow stocks leaving JWH, Kennedy,Evans,Tasi and Nappa as the front rowers and I'd like to see how Moa goes first

      Im just not into playing what looks like a pretty good ball player out on the wing or in the centres. I believe he should do some sort of apprenticeship in the 20's or in NSW cup & if he is good enough the opportunity will present itself. If I was a young 1/2 back 5/8 or FB starting out playing professional Rugby league & the coach wanted to play me on the wing I would tell him to give it to a winger & that I only play in the halves or FB.
      Yeah right.....like any young guy is going to pass up an opportunity to play NRL simply because its not in his favoured position. Aside from that, your stance would also call into question the young man's attitude towards the team. When you're unproven like Sheck you don't have the right to demand what position you're picked in.

        Thats true headless but I also feel that playing in the halves or spine & learning the craft is a bit of a forgotten thing these days. In years past your good halves (ball players organisers) came through the system & by the time they were around 22 or 23 if they were good enough they would step up & start playing FG. For me I just feel with RTS that he hasnt played Rugby League long enough & to be playing him in a position that he is not going to master I just wouldn't do it.

        Let the proper wingers we have at the club play on the wings. Get RTS in the U20's or NSW cup & play him in the halves so he can get in his hands on the ball nearly every tackle & warn Maloney & Pearce there positions are up for grabs if RTS steps up..

          Lucky for Billy Slater and Ben Barba that their debut coaches never took your line of thought.
          Playing them on the wing and centre for their debut season didn`t exactly hinder their fullback development much.
          Neither did our past two fullbacks in Mini and Diamond whom both debuted as wingers.
