What positions do Hyde/Olbison/Whitehead play?

One of them is going to get a run out for certain.

I think Platt in the Centre isn't a bad call, it may turn out he is better suited to centre

They may put Hyde in to cover Centres with Platt, otherwise the others will be there to cover SR or Prop.

Probably, but if Platt just fu/cks up then it would be useful to give Hyde a shot in the centres.

That could be a Warrington fan speaking.

On Good Friday we had Grix at left centre and Vinnie Anderson at right (Johnson on right wing, King on the left).

On Monday, King moved back into the centres when Anderson was out.

And we started the season with our first choice centres as Martin Gleeson and Matt King with Paul Johnson as back up. Crazy.

just a couple of minor changes. Think Menzies is more effective at Centre than standoff and stuck hyde in so if platt does struggle at Centre we at least have options, Although I suspect Centre could be a good position for platt long term.
Hopefully we'll make more use of kopczak and scruton to take some of pressure of lynchy.
