Naughton is ok as a back up but his defence is very inferior to Micheals, Lancaster was scoring tries for fun in a poor Hull side in 2015 so not sure what is going to happen there.
I reckon Griffin is to replace Yeaman, also Griffin is more long term than Micheals.
Naughton may not be as good defensively,he is 7/8 younger so you would expect that,but he is much quicker and has a bit if Xfactor about him, he has scored a coupe of try's that Micheals wouldn't.
Tough but right decision for me.
I still think we might see Fonua on the wing, one advantage of that would be to utilise his catching ability on the wing, would score loads from high kicks he played there, although I do like him stacking from centre, his defence at centre is still s concern (watched the game last night and he missed 5/6 tackles including both try's)
