Roberts seems to laid back for full back, he doesn't seem to have the instinct to run like hell at a loose ball or an opposing player who's broke the line.

Hock and Carmont seemed to pick up knocks, 2 of our best players IMO so i dont think its worth risking playing them and them facing a longer layoff, and Richards is out for 4-6 weeks so....
I would drop Fielden, the guy is a pudding! I would love nothing better than him to regather his form but he has clearly lost all desire.
Coley has been playing better I will give him his due.
Current thoughts - Mago out or get running up them plantations, get fit or get rid. Maybe a back up halfback, someone with a bit of experience on a short term deal. Big tall strong running second rower, like a McMeekin or Sironen type back rower.

but having said that is it too laid back or a calmness. full back is a high pressure position and somone who is calm and doesn't flap is a must

Totally agree I'd give it a go. IIRC Pryce scored a couple on the wing in the friendlies did he not??
I don't particularly rate Phelps and certainly don't think he was clearly MOM by any stretch of the imagination

He has often played second row for St George and Parramatta, why not prop?
