Yeah I think moving Staggs in my side rewards Anderson but also puts a rocket up Staggs who has been awful in both games this year. Obviously Anderson isn't replacing him when Piaks is fit but this gives some short term reward to a guy who really put in.

In terms of Semu, yeah he's still a work in progress but I've just been so underwhelmed with Tawha, I just think it might be a good opportunity to give Semu Tawha's junk minutes.

Staggs is currently a premiership and Kangaroo centre. Why would Madge move him to the forwards to fit in a less credentialed player?

For one game. Mainly it is to rob Peter to pay Paul. Anderson at least is good, Gosiewski on the other hand is abysmal. Will Staggs do better than Gosiewski? Well I'm not sure he could do worse could he?

Gosieski was concussed .
Poor bugger should have been hooked .

Staggs would be gassed after 10 minutes of efforts . He is a power athlete not a cardio machine . Then the opposition would keep attacking the weakness like they did with Gosieski .

If you were going to shift a centre, it'd be Gem. Anderson played left centre on the weekend, Gem is comfortable on the left and has played that role in the past. When Staggs tried to play five-eighth last year on the left he struggled so I'd be inclined to keep him where he is.

Left hand fend which is Staggs modus operand is not so useful on the left side of the field .
Cobbo on the right side used to baffle me .

Just wait until Bostock returns and Cobbo gets moved to right centre for Herbie to stay at left centre... they would be far better switching sides.
 
Jaiyyyyden for Gos pls pls

(I didn't watch him in cup on the weekend but it can't have been worse than Gos)
