Jordan Turner : Tue May 14, 2019 11:09 am  

I am led to believe that Woolford is going to move Turner to LF when Leroy is back in 2 weeks, providing Jake Wardle can stay fit. I believe he would be a great loose. We could be looking at an all homegrown back line for the magic weekend or the Cas away fixture.

Apparently this has always been in Woolfords plans and now it looks like it could finally happen.

What are peoples thoughts on this? I believe Turner could give us another dimension in attack. His hands are much better than Bruno and Murphys and now makes big metres now too. Could be a good move!

He didn't look out of place at stand off passing wise, and his running style is far more that of a forward than a back, makes good metres after contact etc. I think he could make a good loose, definitely better than Lawrence who has no creativity at all, and very little go forward. Good move imo

jordan turner has been one of the positives this season

could see him playing in that position for sure

but likely would have to play more at centre as jake wardle is always injured

He played for Saints at loose and I see it as a strong position for him. Hope he can cope with the defence he will be required to do.

It should benefit him, he struggles with his lateral movement, so moving into the middle should do him good
