What would you do if Phelps, Roberts and Richards are all injured? I wouldn't want to throw him in there but if we are put in that situation then we'd probably have to. Either that or play a few players out of position.

If we have to put a fourth choice fullback in, then I'd play Sam Tomkins there.

If Phil Bailey isn't fit I would like to see Lee Mossop get his chance.

An interesting point there. I remember an interview on the Wigan site last year regarding Tomkins (cant remember if it was with Noble or Lenegan) and they were asked what position he would play in and they said his true position in the 1st team hadnt been decided and that he could make a great Stand Off or Scrum Half, but could also be potentially a Hooker, Loose, Centre or Fullback.

Theres no pressure on him at all. He needs gametime and matches to develop as a player.
