Message: [QUOTE="Lockysillegitimatechild, post: 3011160, member: 8814"] The more I see of him playing the more I can see it happening. Bird to lock anyone? Before yelling me down from the rooftop hear me out. Every run he does he hits hard with late footwork, his defence isn't great laterally for a centre but would be great in the middle with a big hit in him and the ability to lead the line, he's getting fitter (may happen later in the year), and he is great at finding a half hole with tired forwards. He's also bigger then I remember and is aggressive and enthusiastic with speed. Also will allow Staggs to get 80 mins and for nikorima to go to the bench and fill the role he was born to play. I don't think or want it to happen yet (if dearden or osullivan get given till round 10 (o'sullivan) 18 (dearden) to develop a little more) but maybe later on. Bird would also need to build up his confidence in his body and match fitness. With him there it'd allow for a much stronger bench rotation too with gillett back to the edge and bird presumably playing 80 mins. [/QUOTE]
