Is that right Rob? I was also under the impression that Shenton was a right centre. He certainly has the number 3 shirt, and he made King look silly last year when playing at right centre against us.

He started out as a right centre Dave, everything i have seen of him in recent times has been at left centre and thats where he seems to be doing great things, he wears 3 at left centre. The clip is from Feb this year.
no youtube links please.

Shenton is the left centre for us, he's been absolutely unbelievable so far. Last season he was a revelation for us and as certainly picked up from where he left off last year. Im not being biased but i don't think theres a SL centre i would want over him, of course i wouldn't mind Gidley but Evans as impressed me considerably.

I bet they're nearly the same age too.
Lyon came through very early whereas Shenton's a pretty late one to the table, possibly due to a lack of natural size?
I'd rather have british than Aus anyway and Shenton's up there

Shenton a late one to the table...? this is his sixth season in the Cas first team and he's only 23
