If Moses is back i would move Dylan to FB, Ethan to 5/8.

Try something different out of the box we are long odds anyway to beat Brisbane.

Get Dylan's to utilize his running game out the back and see how he goes.

He has the fitness to handle the position.

He wouldn't be any worse then Sandow back in the day.

Keeping Sanders in at 5/8 gives us 3 kicking options on both sides and takes pressure of Mitch.

We also ensure we have a playmaker at FB something we wont have with Russell or Simmonson.

I love all these posts wanting Dyl at 1.

Back in April 2022, I posted

i think he has the footwork, speed and passing ability to be a better fullback than 5/8th.

He will have more room to move in rather than jinking around defenders closer to him.
He will get more oportunities in broken play facing a jagged defensive line.
His first instinct would be to only run rather than setup 2nd rowers etc
He will be just as good as Guth as last line of defense.
The speed that Walsh introduces into the backline, he will do the same.
If you watch dyl, he can also step very late. Very similar to when RTS was playing fullback.
And he can always chime into the backline and throw a cutout pass to the wings

Sanders did look good. Though it was 1 game and Asi looked good in 1 game.

What is there to lose seriously.

We are already long odds.

Going with the same shit and expecting a different result.

Our best chance of maybe shocking Brisbane is if Moses is fit is probably having Dylan out the back and keep Sanders who was steady enough in the halves to partner Moses.

Sean Russell & Bailey Simmonson are both un-coordinated ball players that wouldn't threaten Brisbane if the Broncos players were pissed drunk walking down church street to the game.

It was good enough to move Dylan to centre a few years back when there was an outside back shortage.

If we have a steady enough player in Ethan to hold the fort at 5/8.

Drown is probably best fit to replace Gutho at FB when it comes to fitness and he has a running game out the back with some ball-playing skill that can threaten the defensive line.

You never know until you try.
