Quote ="vastman"Come on he's the FB hence they are cheap yards and I suspect you know that - stats are poor indicators for certain things. He hasn't done it for me though I concede he looks better in the halves, I'm still not unhappy at him being dropped or leaving tbh,'"
Cheap yards as you call them maybe but plenty more than his contemporary in the fullback position, yet he's the one dropped. He offers more than either Mathers at fullback or Sykes in the halves (although thats where i'd play him) and the stats back what i've seen on the pitch. If its a couple of weeks dropped to give him a kick up the jacksy then fine, it may be a master stroke. But i think it being a long term move or getting shut of him would be a mistake.
