Cartwright to centre?

Posted by Wile E. Coyote on July 13, 2021 at 8:56pm in NRL

Cartwright is not getting enough game time.

could put him left centre - he would have a blast setting Sivo up.

Move Waqa to right wing- keep Opacic right centre. Don't like the Opacic - Dunster combo- lacks size/power.

Its worth a thought, and with Cartwright on the bench he definitely has the skills to fill in the halves and at centre.

Semi? Sivo? All Fijian wingers look the same.

Cartwright could definitely do with more game time.

I like the idea, he's definitely mobile and creative enough to be centre... I guess it just depends on his defensive concentration for the full game. Pretty sure both Titans and Penrith tried him in the centre's and it didn't last long.

Having Nuikore and Carty as our centres would be interesting- boost our power game. Especially if Sivo and Waqa were the wingers.

  Marata is wasted on the bench, needs to move back to centre

  This could be pretty interesting, we'd be a lot stronger with them at centre that's for sure, but a lot less mobile and could get burnt by the faster teams. We'd need to somehow compensate for the lack of mobility and speed in our power game.
