[QUOTE="Peat, post: 656093, member: 42330"] He was a 12 coming through the youth ranks and got shoehorned into 10 when Sarries ran out of choices due to injury and it ended up sticking because they were unimaginative sods happy to have a kicker/tackler only there... Which is probably just as well for him, as its difficult to imagine him having got anywhere at 12. :mellow: He'd be a bit willowy for a modern 12. He's a bit willowy for a modern centre altogether really, which is why I was happy with the idea of him at 15, but that's clearly not happening anymore. Agreed that he needs to nail down a position. Tbh... we're got a generation of relatively averaged sized outside centres, all with real gas, nice footwork, bit of football... Daly, Trinder, Joseph, Lowe (no particular order)... and, tbh, I see them all becoming Matthew Taits i.e. wasted potential. Really hope I'm wrong. [/QUOTE]
