He's built very similar to Lockers at piedome could be a very handy loose, i don't think he'd be upset if he moved there.

Atkins can pass 4foot to his left, tops. Keep him at , it aint broke, dont fix it. Especially when weve got *arguably* the best pack in super league. |

| Quote Asgardian13="Asgardian13"Not so long ago when we lost first-choice centres we were reduced to playing second-row forwards there. I seem to recall Sibbitt and Burns lining up a few times - Burns even in a Cup semi-final against Wigan! The fact that we now have four or five 'real' centres is the sort of strength in depth needed to win SL. No need to put Atkins in the forwards - he'll get his share of games.'"
At one point I thought DVDV had a bit of a fetish for playing SR's at centre. Ian Knot Knott Knott! |

Playing for England doesn't necessarily mean you're international class. Atkins got found out in the four nations.
Atkins wouldn't cut it as a second rower, he's better out along the edges, always where he burns to be, bullying smaller 3/4s. |

Correct. Atkins wasn't up to much last night, but name me a player who was? It's good to see that we have strength in depth, but when fully fit Atkins is our first choice centre, and rightly so. |

I thought it was a Van De Velde masterstroke for the 1st game at Wigan 1 year. My mind may really be playing tricks but it could have been the game TKL and Nikau ( cant remember if he got red or yellow) were sent off |

Sorry, I think you may be right. Did he have Langer and Walters at halfback?
Yep, you are right:

Haven't you got an "issue" with one of your centres
I'd keep quiet, before you go having a pop at one of ours, if I were you  |
