The players you mention may be able to play 6 but they dont enhance the team as an attacking side.
You say 6 is more of a running game and Carlos has the right attributes to play a running 6 but have you seen him run the ball since he has been playing six?
All he is doing is receiving and safe passing however his defence has improved since he arrived.
We will get the best of Tuimavave back in the centre where he has more room to run and back up breaks.
We need an established six to take this team to the next level.There is no point wishing and hoping Carlos will suddenly develop into a top 6 he wont.
Whatever you say i still expect the club to sign an established 6 how and from where i dont know.

Warrington go top.

We still need to beat Wigan on Friday to make a home play off almost certain. Could do with Wigan beating Warrington the week after. Looking like the Hull v Warrington game could be a one off game for the League Leaders Shield.

Think Carlos has all the attributes. Think Connor could easily make stand off his position next year as well.
Carlos is good defensively and has the ability to inject himself into the game. Don't think we've seen the best of him yet.
Sometimes overseas players can take a full season to acclimatise.
There again, there's a local stand off becoming available soon isn't there?

According to Stevo, Wire wrapped up top spot today!

he may have got confused when struggling taking his Catalan replica top off , along with his Catalan bobble hat, and catalan scarf while packing away his "Die Warrington scum" banner.....

the bloke is an immaculate cretin of the highest order and was (as usual ) clearly rooting for a Wire loss today.....

but nothing changes, it still comes down to the last game between us two.....

So you want to drop Mahe & griffin for next year to play CT in the centre? Pryce started his career on the matty sing, then went on to centre/stand-off, CT will make the transition it will make it easier as he is in & around good players, Connor will be a very good signing & when you hear Abdul speak he's not going to want to sit in the stands, lugs/lasty & hornet rate Abdul & say he's got a good career in front of him if he kicks on, I think AP would recruit a 6 if he thought what we've got isn't fit for purpose, it seems to me fans are already worrying about things that are not even happening or going to happen.

Other than the prize money I don't really care about the LLS, in fact winning it could potentially be detrimentaly to our mentality. Simple fact is if we win our last 3 games we finish top

don't get this we need a 6 for next year, we have 3 very decent 6s for next year imo, not doing to bad atm with 2, throw connor into the mix and I think we will be fine and they are all young, more of an issue will be end of next season when a few of our forwards might need replacing

I certainly dont want to move Fonua from centre to the wing but Radford brought him to the club to play wing now he is centre.
Tuimavave was brought to the club to play centre and now he is the answer to our problem at 6.
Unfortunately i think Radford initially had it right identifying Tuimavave as a centre but has got it wrong thinking he is the answer to our problem at 6.
I can see him moving Fonua to the wing next season.
I dont know enough about Griffin suffice to say he is the typical Radford signing for a back big strong runner but lets hope he can defend.
Connor for me is a waste and will be a fringe utility player like Naughton.
If Abdul was that good he would be on a long term contract but we all know he is off contract at the end of the season.Talent yes, but needs to massively up his fitness levels and find some pace.Think the club will give him another year to show what he can or cant do.
Some fans will see the half back situation like you do and others like me will see we can go to another level with an established 6 pushing our attack.
We are still poor in the opposition 20 ball in hand and rely too much on kicks.
A quality 6 like Brough in our side would make a massive difference.

Challenge Cup winners, Grand final semi finalists and you know better than Motu and Radford. Give Carlos a chance at close season training, come back in 6 months and tell us we need a 6. Has Abdull got a contract for 2017?
