Its not really multiple moves, it's hardaker to centre myler to fb. Anyway I don't know what he will go with, just adding to the debate and its one of those that without seeing whats gone on in practice and how they're wanting to approach saints in particular could be a possibility. Smith did choose to bring up hardakers versatility in his presser.

One thing I would be really dubious of is a 'utility' fb/half/(at a big push)9, on the bench, we can't afford to carry one of those in our subs. The only change to your spine you want to intentionally make during a game is hooker and that's not myler.

My preference would be Hardaker at full back but Rohan did allude to Hardaker playing elsewhere.

Myler may replace Dwyer on the bench as the utility sub.

Pretty much agree. No value in picking from strength if you then put players in positions to which they're semi-suited at best. No, for me Smith should go with Zak or Myler - not both.

Are you saying Suttcliffe is a better centre than Hardhaker?

Having selection dilemmas is a good position to be in. Long may it continue!

Hardaker definitely starting at FB

How about Sean Long to continue too?

Even when Leeming was Dwyer played limited minutes - I just don't think RS rates him or at least doesn't see the point in giving him a lot of minutes if he's off next year.
