I think that the Hayne at 6 trial has run it's course several times. I also think that he played well last night at centre.

...Although, I wouldn't mind experimenting with Guth at 9 to have our 4 best players in the spine. Why not? The season is gone.
As stated Hayne at 6 has been done to death and he has failed at all atemps and should stay at center or wing as that is his best positions at the moment but if he can find some of his old form he would go well at the back as I am not sold on French. As for Moses he should be in wenty as we play more like a team and are better organised when he is not part of the team and have not see any value that he brings to the team just like when he was at the tigers.
I would like to see BA try Hayne at six to see if there is anything there. I certainly don't think the topic has been "done to death" - it's actually never been properly tested.
When Hayne was last at the club, he was pretty open in saying he'd be interested in moving to six later in his career. Well, guess what, it's later in his career, and if he wants to earn million dollar pay checks again, that's the position he is going to need to play.
Since then, he's played the position with some success, and even last night, seemed to be swapping around quite freely.
I've always like the idea of having players, who can shift about on the field, I think it gives you a massive advantage over today's very well-drilled defences. I think even if Hayne does play centre, it looks like he's going to drop into second receiver plenty of times, anyway.

We just won without Moses. Why would you have him back in the team at all? He is rubbish.
