Masters actually has what we hoped for in Milne (football wise that is).Norman has played a bit of centre and I believe that's his best fit for the team this year. A lot of 5/8 can and have transitioned to the centres quite easily when required. He'll still get his hands on the ball out there and it's the least disruptive move for us until Widdop leaves - spine intact and a handy ball player, short kicker thrown into the mix out wide.
I'll need to watch Marsters a bit more closely if he plays CS, I haven't seen much of him so far.
I can hear our coaches minds ticking over and know they won't risk a completely changed backline 2 - 5 or even 1 -5, so they will play Aitken and Lafai who they know. They weren't even confident enough to run out different centres in the first half of a trial.
Very powerful, good step and footy smart and IMO he would not be lost in 1st grade and should be fast tracked ahead of Pereira.
Anyway I'll get back to you on that after he turns 24 or so.
