I was told he was injured after the Leeds game but I really don't know why he hasn't been allowed to string a few games together. |

I really don't understand some people's desperation to move Sam to 6.
Why would we do that when we allowed Deacon to play on for another year, and bought another half back in Finch?
I think most people agree we've missed Deacs, so I'd bring him back to partner Finch. Deacs might just help take the pressure off Finch, that he's obviously feeling in trying to adapt. He's pushing it too much, and needs to relax a bit more. Deacs also has the best long kicking game of any of our kickers, and would make a difference their too.
Plus letting Tommy and Micky share the hooking role, would add a bit of variety. It would also give us options off the bench.

| Quote Pemps="Pemps"Not for me. He hasn't got the passing or running game of a modern fullback in the mould of Tomkins, Roberts, Phelps, Greenshields, Slater, Minachelo (sp), Hodgson etc. He's a winger for mine.'"
I'd do it for defensive purposes more than anything - he's safe as houses under the bomb. He also runs it back like a forward and he could still chime into the line in attack - just obviously he wouldn't do it with the skill of Tomkins. |

| Quote moonlight flit="moonlight flit"Too true !
Behind a beaten pack you will always lose. Hell, you don't have to have been watching the game for too many years to work that one out.
Both Wire and Catalans have big packs, and we got beat !
We need muscle in that front row, someone like Andy Platt or especially Kelvin Skerrett in the past. Props often work in pairs much better. Playing with a 'light pack', as we are doing at the moment, will crucify us in the long term.'"
The anomaly is that we really took it to Hudds' pack a month ago, why can't we do it consistently against the better packs? I bet Wane's doing his nut in. |

| Quote Last Son of Wigan="Last Son of Wigan"Yes actually I would. Only a few years back people were saying the same about Goulding, he was a centre who wasn't up to it, he then went on loan to Salford, they played him as a winger, and the rest is history.
Goulding was scoring tries last season due to having a top centre as his partner, without that he's average at best.
He's weak under the high ball and not that quick.
Compare him to Marsh, Marsh is bigger faster stronger better under the high ball.
I don't like the mentality of 'well he's not done much wrong so lets stick with him' when in reality we could be stronger down his side.'"
You say that Marsh is bigger that Goulding,not according to the club site.
Goulding 179cm = app 5'10+ 84kilo = app 14st -5lb
Marsh 172cm = app 5-8 78kilo = app 13st-11 |

I seem to recall Sam having a stormer at full back in the same fixture last year so I wouldn't be tempted to move him just yet. It's our moves that have become predictable not Sam being on the end of them. We need to vary it up a bit because teams have now done their homework.

Fair enough, one of my points was isolated and inaccurate. Overall I still feel other players deserve a run out there as Goulding doesn't cut it. |

And why do you think that? Also why do you think the players want Maguire out and why do you think they purposely played bad to send a message? |

I could be wrong but I've heard off a very good source that he's been sacked this evening. Don't know the details. |
