I Agree totally wouldn't move Dugan or Widdop on current form and also wouldn't want wholesale changes but improvement is always welcome and needed ! I like many others believe that Mann could be our best choice at half. Would love to see him get a game at half with Field continuing to come off the bench (more game time than Saturday though hopefully) Iwould also like to see Dufty on the wing gaining experience and giving us ability to shuffle the backs around and again keep the opposition guessing.Dugan is our fullback.
Widdop is our 5/8.
Field isnt ready for first grade yet imo. He needs time. Give Mann a run... that way we can positively decide field or mann for 2018.
Dufty, he isnt proven yet in first grade, dugan is in fine form.
Dufty will get his chances during origin and if injury occurs to dugan.
The way dugan played yesterday, wow... he was on fire.
There is no way you would move him now in that form. If his form drops, then sure... try Dufty.
Mann needs a run at half until field is ready for first grade. Then decide between the 2 who would better suit partnering Hunt in 2018.
I like the look of our possible future spine:
Dufty
Field/Mann
Hunt
McCiness
I think it has great speed, class, potential and feel we need to work towards that.
