Hmmmm...

They might prove me wrong, but it seems weird to put Jack W in out of position and then have Burns on the bench...

Maybe he is going to play Burns in the run-on side and have JW come off the bench - that'd make more sense (to me).

That's what I am thinking as well

Maybe he starts with Williams on edge see if he can handle it, if he does great, that extra coverage during the season would be great.
Has Burns as backup, always switch Williams to a middle

 

[Tiger Shark]

Williams won’t play big minutes on the edge imo. Burns will play majority of the game and Williams will go back to the middle

Jack played right edge exclusively when he came into grade.
It’s only since the emergence of Nikora he’s been shaped into a middle.

 

[Inferno]

I actually think Williams could be a handful on the right. He's a pretty powerful runner with decent leg speed.

If I was a half or centre I don't think I'd want him running at me.

Here's the thing,
The last few years we've had 3 prominent edge forwards, Nikora, Wilton, and Graham.
All three got used due to injury and suspension.
We lost Graham this year without really replacing him. I don't count Burns as he looks to me to be a back up player.
I suggest that the coaches have had Williams training as both a middle and an edge for this very situation.
They do plan out for these scenarios.

Same as if a back goes down in a game *touch wood*, we have no backs on the bench. There would be a plan as to what positional changes occur.

 

[shaggs]

Fitz has a squad of multi positional players. He appears to made sure that anyone can step into a role to fill a gap whether that’s in the middle of a game or for 2 weeks like this.

 

[coolumsharkie]

I think he will kill it there. His defense has been outstanding so far. Reminds me of his namesake Reece a bit too.

 

[Stake Removed]

This is when and I can only think of in last 10 years two players of real quality Luke Lewis and Mitch Aubusson that injury anywhere in your team these guys could slot in and not miss a beat, no team has that quality of player anymore we were lucky to have Luke.
They are worth a lot more than they were paid

History should prove this to be a very accurate post. I’m sure the coach would say “shhhh” is he could. Well done

Fins up Dan losing his mind over not picking Iro against the tigers. Calm down mate. This is classic security from Fitz. He knows we should win this week and he is making sure of it. I don’t see anything in Iro to be honest.

The you give him something different to say.

You could also do something about the phrase "lights out" on the other one.
