Message: [QUOTE="GCBRONCO, post: 2581795, member: 1808"] It really comes down to the balance of the side in the end, as you say McCullough finally has proven his finally capable of the 80 minutes you demand from a quality hooker which is great, but Granville showed last night there's potential to have an impact dummy half off the bench who can be brought in to keep or increase momentum with his quick running from dummy half. Question is that leaves 3 positions on the bench, 2 props and a back rower I would think. Ideally we would want Parker to go to lock so one of the backrower's will drop to the bench, at this stage I would say Glenn. One of Kennedy and Hannant will start, that would leave another prop spot open, give it to Wallace, his done well in his stints and I would like to see more of him. As for Hoffman, this is a tough one, I desire nothing more then to see him out of 5/8th, I don't blame him for being there, I blame the insistence of playing him there when clearly after 7 rounds his holding back our attacking options his side. Do we move him onto the wing? Perhaps, though it's hard to justify when both are performing so well. I don't think moving him into the centre position fixes the situation anymore either, his outside man or inside for that matter will miss opportunities from one who best uses the player's around him. So what to do with him? Fullback for this season I'm afraid, switch Hoffman and Barba around, not ideal from an attacking perspective for Hoffman, but at least you will get the best from him on kick returns and Barba will provide us with a 5/8th best able to create opportunities around him. 1. Hoffman 2. Vidot 3. Reed 4. Hodges 5. Copley 6. Barba 7. Hunt 8. McGuire 9. McCullough 10. Hannant 11. Thaiday 12. Gillett 13. Parker 14. Granville 15. Glenn 16. Kennedy 17. Wallace [/QUOTE]
