As much as merkins criticise our outside backs, I think we might have too many to fit in the top 17.Gutho to centre next year, put your house on it.
1. Iongi
2. Sivo
3. Penisini
4. Simonsson
5. Lomax
6. Drown
7. Moses
I'm not convinced Gutherson is a better outside back than Sivo or Simonsson. Yes he's a better footballer, but his strengths are his work rate and footy brain. These aren't as useful in the outside backs as they are in the spine. I reckon Sivo and Simonsson are both more explosive than Gutherson, and this is what's needed at wing and centre. Gutherson's strengths are wasted at centre. He is better suited to the spine, which should include the 'middle half' role that many teams use.
