But we probably haven't signed him to play wing

Re: Sami Sauiluma : Sat Jan 30, 2016 2:53 pm  

Same size as our binman talanoa but wouldn't play him in the forwards

Re: Sami Sauiluma : Sat Jan 30, 2016 4:13 pm  

If you can plan to play Yeaman and Whiting in the forwards, you can definitely play Talanoa there. He's already played centre. Next step SR or LF.

Back to Hull's finest though. I can guarantee one thing, Kieran Dixon will never make the transition to centre or SR.

Talk about grasping at straws. Cos players are big bang em in the pack. Doesn't matter if their game or attributes don't suit position he's big so it doesn't matter.
He may well end up suiting it. But I don't get what rovers are pratting about at. Have a season of being bitched in the forwards at the end of that season you Prioritise that area. Not convert people after the seasons started after loading up with young unproven lads - mostly backs.
I've a lot of rovers pals who are a bit baffled by it all! Looking in,I am
