Re: Joe Bullock : Thu Jan 22, 2015 9:23 am  

I'm not worrying too much about injuries yet, with 3 weeks till the season starts & most of the injuries players not being risked after operations we'll be fine come the Bradford game. Hopefully we can avoid serious injuries to key players but we still do have excellent strength in depth. Who've we got that can play in each position?

Full Backs: McNally, Pownall, Reynolds
Wingers: Kay, Higson, Pownall,
Centres: Worthington, Armstrong, Platt, Pitman
Half Backs: Ridyard, Brierley, Reynolds, McNally, Beswick.
Props: Moimoi, Wilkes, Spencer, Hopkins, Acton, Aspinwall, Walker, Emmitt, Acton
Hookers: Beswick, Penkywicz.
2nd Row: Sarsfield, Goulden, Haggerty, Hopkins, Acton.
Loose Forward: Barlow

Have I missed anyone off or anyone that can play easily in another position?

It is a very strong squad. Im going to go out on a limb though and to be the best team outside the top 6/7 in the country you will have to add a Fullback, Winger, Prop, Hooker, and Second Row. The ones you have are very good in this league but the players you have in those positions have either had a shot at SL and failed or imo simply arnt good enough. If you make the top 4 though Im quite excited to see how you go against the lower teams in SL in the middle 8.

I think we might see a lot more of Lewis Foster this season. He has loads of potential and showed some nice touches on Sunday

Having stated elsewhere, that you 'don't do detail', you have here, to the extent that Acton is included twice at prop. (Open side and blind side? ) Maybe Bate could slot into one of those spots?
However, to be fair, I do understand the thrust of your post, to which you can now add Dixon. (three times in the back row, maybe? )
