Message: [QUOTE="NSW stables, post: 3698555, member: 10150"] With regards to mariner's size, Sunia taruva is only 1.8m and 88kg (shorter and lighter than mariner), and averaged 165m in 23 and 24. If mariner doesn't run sidewards, and uses his footwork to try and get between players to get a quick play the ball he could still make metres and be a decent winger until he is able to step up to centre. Selection options were slim last year, but KW didn't try anything a little out of the box, to mitigate the edge issues I.e.: -Swapping riki and piakura (given riki is the better defender of the two). -Having arthars defend at centre and return to the wing in attack or to field kicks. - Having piakura defend in the middle and carrigan defending in second row position. As WB and Berrigan showed in 2006, you don't have to remain the same position in defence and attack. It can be quite effective. [/QUOTE]
