  Youd want him to come off the bench surely.
  I wouldn't put him at fullback for 80 after such a long lay off

    French will probably fall back to fullback some time in the second half probably

    Exactly - and I read recently that when warming up with the group before the tigers' game, his lateral movement was not that great and that was quite noticeable. I hope that's not true.

      That's what I saw. He jumped sideways instead of stepping, and it was quite obvious. Not sure if that was just preventative, but I'd like to think he has that lateral movement back now.

  Lets allow a little reality here.  Just maybe, Guth won't launch immediately into Dally M winning form in his first game. 

  Like when he first started here at Parra, his progress from significant injury was cautious, as it ought to be.  I wouldn't be expecting miracles, but it will be great to see him back.

    Well he’d better,otherwise all the experts will have him in Wenty the following week.

  Let’s just hope he stays injury free! Or his career could well and truly be over.

  I doubt they'd have passed him fit if he couldn't move laterally.
