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.
I believe Smith is ahead of Watkins of Gibson when it comes to the centre spot alongside Senior so when Webb returns, I expect Smith to revert to centre and play alongside Donald, with Senior and Hall on the opposite wing with Webb at full back.
Presuming all the above are fit and healthy.
It may not happen, but going on what has been said publicly by the coach, that's what should happen.
