Totally agree he’s a centre and a good strong one at that imo he didn’t look comfortable under any of those kicks in the game he is big strong and a younger Webster.

who ever gets the full back roll is going to be compared with ZAK its going to be a big ask, Roberts seems to be the fans Favourite, other names from within the team LO, Shenton , Minikin, OGODO, Eden, plus our under 19 full back Turner have been mentioned,, we have three or four friendly's coming up hopefully one of these will put is name on the number one shirt

WAS it Me that keeps carping on about our good our under 19s were last year, let me think YES it was me, I cant wait for the season to start so I can watch them again, it would be nice if a few more of our fans can get down and give these lads their support they justly deserve

I'd like it to be Nial Evalds but I think it will be Ben Roberts.

Minikin isn't a fullback.
Egodo? No chance, he needs to develop some more, as someone else said earlier he could be a Webster type player in future.
Hitchcox - Unsure. Positioning needs a lot of work.

Ash Robson, had a great 2017 season with York. IMO had he not been very harshly banned for 6 matches, he'd have walked away with both the NL1 young player of the year and the clubs player of the year. However he has his own business and doesn't want to play full time.

I'd be happy to see an academy player given a chance.

Agree with all your points.
Would like Evalds. Think it will be Roberts but would hope not.

If we are going to sign a full back its about time the club got on with it, the lads are back in pre season training IF we do intend to sign some one we should be getting him on board ASP it will take a time for any new full back to slot in and learn our moves, how nice it was to see most of our over seas players at the lights switch on, shame our prospective full back could not make it, Get well soon Benny

As it stands Zak is still on the cap. We can’t sign anyone till the issue is sorted.

If Zak is still being paid this wants sorting one way or the other, why the hell it takes so long to be brought in front of the people that decides the sentence is beyond me, they must be mowed out with work of the three cases that have been brought to their attention over the last 6 months only RANGI as had his sentence confirmed
