Wakefield Trinity • Re: Two Full backs.
I do,
It’s something I’ve discussed before.
The question is, why do we still conform to the team structure that was set up over 100 years ago
I.e. 1 FB
2 RW 3 RC 4 LC 5 LW
and so on
why not experiment with a different structure in much the same way that football has 4-4-2 or 3-5-1-1 etc.
Wigan currently has 2 class Full Backs and a conundrum about which one to play where, so why not play with 2 Full Backs?
Who says that you must have 2 Half Backs and 2 Centres?
Why not play with 1 HB, 1 Centre and have an extra forward on the field then let the HB and the 2 FBs dictate play
It would certainly cause problems for the opposition defences trying to employ a well practiced system designed to play against a conventional attacking set up
Would it work
Probably if the players were of sufficient quality to relearn and then execute a game plan which was set out in such a way
