Jamie's not in your first 3 choice halves?
Who you guys got hiding in that casualty ward?
It was supposed to say 3 OF our first choice halves. Bryce Cartwright is the 4th choice to partner Jamie Soward in the halves.
Soward / Wallace = full strength, and Wallace is our captain.
Soward / John = our preferred back up option earlier in the season. John even representing New Zealand in the test before injury
Peachey / Soward = Our third choice halves pairing, with Soward having to move to halfback to fit Peachey into the halves in a role that's a bit closer to what he would normally play
Cartwright / Soward = Our fouth choice halves pairing, again with Soward having to play halfback to allow his partner to play a similar role to what he is used to
We have run out of halves to partner Soward. Until Wallace is back, Soward will be playing out of position and taking on pretty much all the playmaking duties. We could use Capewell or Humble from the reserve grade halves, but they're average reserve graders and would be a bigger liability then using first grade quality players out of position.
Hopefully we try Moylan out. The Josh Mansour injury meant we had to keep him at fullback last week to use DWZ on the wing. If Mansour is fit, we can have DWZ at fullback and see how Soward goes with his 5th halves partner for the season.
