We have 3 young halfs and Carlos, so to play a forward there who has previously failed would rank up with one of Radfords worst decisions. He us doing well off the bench, leave him there.
I did say FOR THIS GAME singular.The reason, it allows Tiumavave to return to centre hopefully to partner Talanoa and that gives us a bigger attacking threat on the left especially when Pritchard comes on.It also allows us to add Chris Green to a bench of Ellis,Pritchard and Bowden.
I understand what you are saying about Washbrook but this is a very important game for the club and fans and in my opinion gives us a stronger line up to do the job.
I went on to say that the Warrington game may be the one to bring in HTW or Dean which although tough a fresh young half could take advantage of two tired teams after tough derby matches and latch onto some of the Warrington offloads that go to ground.
