Quote ="NickyKiss"Not sure on that. I thought he got better as the night went on and he'll always cause all sorts of problems in the position. Granted his defence needs work but that should come with experience.
If Maguire won't give Charnley a shot there then he's without doubt our best option at the minute.'"
I agree NK. I think a few will be eating their words re: Joel at centre once he has had a run of games in the position. He looked a real handful at times last night. A centre out of the Australian mold in fact, not unlike Senior in his earlier days. I've wanted the British game to recognise the need for big, fast, blockbusting centres for some time. We always seem to convert them to 2nd rowers in this country for some reason. Give Joel some time to acclimatise to that position and we'll be quids in! He has all the attributes...
