And we are posing the "what happens when the inevitable happens to Gilly" question.

Well probably Pryce to centre (if playing) and Wheeler to 6.

Will Pryce suck his ego in?

Again, pre season, Wheeler was the next great hope at centre.

No way he will.
Wilkin at 6 this week id think, give Wheeler the centre spot.

Armstrong?

He's reportedly a centre and has had first team experience. Maybe shift Gardner to his wing (he has played there after all) and put a youngster on the other wing outside Gidley.

If Pryce is fit, he must go in at SO for me, Long doesn't have the legs any more and I don't see the point of moving the best stand off of the last 2 or 3 years to a position that he both dislikes and is far less effective in.

maybe but I think it was always seen as a stepping stone and a way to get him game time while we have Leon locking down the standoff role, He is the natural choice to play standoff and should be playing there when Leon isnt fit or is rested

Sounds good, it can only do a massive confidence boost for whoever plays outside Gidley.

Unless he decides to aim for the roof with his passes again!

Was he, by whom?

What evidence do you have that Pryce's ego prevents him from playing anywhere other than 6?

He moved to Saints because he wanted to play there, but that's understandable, given that it's his favourite position and that Nobby was playing him all over the shop at Bradford.

Perhaps the coach just thinks 6 is where he serves the team best (I'd be inclined to agree).
