I've checked, he didn't. They can't even get McShane's squad number correct so it's another C-

That's Opta for you.

It may be that Donald was told to stay out on his wing more to cover for the inexperience of Watkins rather than to come in and look for work.
Re the pass/interception to Hall, it was a good job he came in to make the interception. Had he not, my recollection is that they had at least a 2 man overlap so could well have gone in for a score of their own.
I think we're lucky to have Donald, Hall and Smith as our wingers all bring something different and complementary to the table.

only if Watkins or Gibson don't make it. Smith won't get a game there until Webb is back, and by then, one of the others may have made the place their own

i dont believe that will be the case.

i seem to remember reading bluey making it clear that smith will get game time at centre when webb returns, then its upto smith what he does with that chance.


edit; http://www.yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk/l ... 4679924.jp

This article makes me think Smith will revert to centre once Webb returns regardless of Gibson or Watkin' form. Read into it what you will.

As far as I'm concerned from what I've seen Smith is a winger/full back.
I'll be delighted though if he makes a successful transition into the centres.
Strength in depth and versatlity/cover is the aim of every coach. Let's hope that's what we've got, injuries permitting.

I remember the article, but what happens if one or both of Gibson & Watkins excel at centre over the next couple of weeks, and webb comes back, with smith also impressing?

Drop Smith?
Drop Gibson/Watkins?
Drop Webb?

It is unlikely that Smith, Gibson/Watkins and Hall will all play so well they can't be dropped, but one of them will have to.
