Clint Gutherson , Fullback or 5/8 in 2017?

Posted by Coopamatta on July 18, 2016 at 12:53pm

Clint Gutherson was great yesterday in that 5/8 role, but he is also a good fullback, if Hayne isnt to return himself or French could take that fullback spot, what i personally think is we cant put him back on the wing, he has too much potential at 5/8, maybe himself and Norman could be a good halves combination?

  Majority of the year he played on the wing.We will have Brad Takairangi back soon and Gurtho will go back to right wing replacing Bevan French

I'd resign Corey and play Hayne in 5/8. Use Guth at fullback and put Bev on the wing.

He had a great game yesterday and has been improving in every game.... but its only one game played at 5/8 so far.

Lets wait to see how the next month or so unfolds before we start handing out 2017 jerseys.

One good game at 5/8 but a ton of potential. I think if we lose another game and our finals dream is finally gone, I would like to see BA experiment a bit with the likes of Gutherson, French, Nelson at Hooker maybe coming off the bench and even give Twal a couple of runs, it will help sort out a few positions for next year. I think Alvaro has improved out of sight this season after being given a taste of FG last year, French and Gutherson will improve immensely in 2017.
