Mate we will never Know with Mary coaching , he wont try it ....Can Dufty play 5/8..??
In regards to Widdop to FB for us I say no. He will have an established halves partner in Hunt meaning we will have a top shelf 6/7 for the first time in ages. Why would anyone want to mess with that before the team as even run out is beyond me.
Also, Robbie Farah looked good at 7 for Lebanon vs. France. Lets see if Souths are looking to shift him to 7.
I actually think Mann should be the option as back up FB, then Field(that’s what Millward earmarked him as earlier this year & he will need to get a shot at some point).Rabbitohs have an established halfback in Reynolds, they may well try Farah at 7 if he goes down. As much as Dufty's debut was excellent I wouldn't call him an established fullback. If Dufty can't perform, then not considering Widdop to 1 and Mann to 6 would be narrow minded.
Agree regarding Hunt and I am not suggesting we should definitely do it but I have always thought Widdop is a FB we have made half. His short kicking game is a strength, he can play both sides of the ruck and the $$$ should matter that much if he is playing 1 or 6 in my opinion.I actually think Mann should be the option as back up FB, then Field(that’s what Millward earmarked him as earlier this year & he will need to get a shot at some point).
Look, I’m just not a fan of having your best players strengthen a position which weakens the one they are being paid handsomely to fill(see my comments re Hunt to hooker).

As I said in another thread, I think 1. Dufty 6. Widdop 7. Hunt and 9. McInnes should be our first combo but I would definitely entertain 1. Widdop 6. Mann 7. Hunt and 9. McInnes.
Absolutely, we all want Dufty to be holding his own and more.Pretty sure Widdop has never stated he was/is/wants to be an FB.
Not because I care whether I am right or wrong, if Widdop isn’t playing FB, then that is a good thing in my eyes because Dufty is holding his own.
Let’s see how it all pans out.
The worse thing would be to have SuperCoach try to mastermind a massive reshuffle of positions. It would end in tears.Absolutely, we all want Dufty to be holding his own and more.
