Short term I would have Wellens at full back, we need to get that Percival and Swift partnership going.
When that happens we could try Dawson at Full Back for a couple of games to see how he goes defensively, we know he should be good on kick returns.
We,ve got plenty of options but its important we don,t rearrange most of the backline to cater for one position.

Bad news for Lomax, gutted for him and I hope he comes back next season stronger.

I don't think we can afford to experiment with this position now, we've got some big games coming up and we need to pick up some points in our next three games from somewhere.

As Wellens appears to be making the 17 in some form it would make sense to put him back there for the short term until we get some players back from injury and have another forward on the bench.

Yeah, I'd go with that. Wello does sometimes stunt our attack out wide, but at least he is safe and we'll have the benefit of his leadership for 80 minutes each week. I'd be using Wello's space on the bench/in the forwards to make sure Savelio gets a game every week, as he is one of the few players we have who can get metres when the going is tough.

What about loaning out LMS and bringing in a specialist attacking full back????

Seems to work for Salford.

I'd happily piggy back LMS to whichever club would have him.

Gutted for a player that actually tries 100 percent. However not being coached by Brown for another 4 months might actually do him the world of good in the long term. Instead of the skittles advert where everything he touches turns into them very tasty toffees. Everything Brown touches turns into that awful stench that we all know as sh*te.

Bad news for you guys (and Lomax), sorry to hear it.

It's crazy for you to be writing the season off though.

We could get that pudding in the 8 shirt to piggy back and can stay with him.

Would that be classed as one of Masoe's 9 carries?
