If
Te Maire keeps this play up poor old Luke ain't getting back in when he is fit ahead of
TMM.
I am trying to remember when we had multiple spine players pushing up together....don't think I have ever seen all four...the hooker, Halfback, Stand off and Fullback push through the middle third like they are now under Webster (ok so it was just one week, but they will try it again, maybe not this week, but it will start to become a thing).
Closest thing would be under Anderson, when players kept turning up to catch the second phase, but that is not the same as all four spine players getting involved.
I prefer seeing
SJ and
TMM with
CNK at the back finishing off middle third breaks, rather than Websters plan to have Roger come into the middle in a Roving role.
Hopefully we won't need Roger to come in, hopefully he can stay out on the edge holding up the opposition three quarter line, keeping them honest while the little men do a
Stacey Jones and cut right through the middle of the park looking for an offload or a pass.
Roger is better utilized in such a way that he spends all his time learning how to set up a Winger on an overlap. Otherwise if he is going to the middle often, you risk duplication with
CNK already doing those Dummy half scoots.
Also to be frank, Roger was never the best support player of breaks, nor was
CNK, which is why
CNK doing it against the Rabbits should see him retain that role now.
