Gerard for the midfield?

19 September 2006 | By johnboy

RugbyHeaven is speculating that the Brumby’s wing wizard, Mark Gerrard is going to be brought into fly half or inside centre against the Queensland Reds this weekend.

So will he sparkle with the extra ball? Or struggle with the pace?

Ah, knew I was forgetting someone – Ashley Cooper! I think Rathbone wouldn’t mind more time in the centres rather than at fullback but your on the money with Fainifo – he did well last friday

Adam Ashley Cooper is the other utility back – he is competent at wing, centre or fullback.

Rathbone can fall back if required and given Friday’s performance Fainifo deserves game time on the wing.

so who fills your fullback? Fairbanks at inside and Hux at fullback? would you put Fairbanks at fullback if you had hux at inside centre? am I forgetting someone?

I think this is the start of something great for the brumbies.

Gerrard has a good rugby game and can kick off both feet.

With Phibbs at Scrum Half, Gerrard at Flyhalf, and then “Fuxley” and “Teeny Fairwanks” fighting it out for inside centre, and Mortlock at Outside centre – we have got the start of a new backline without having to rely on old man gregan and rubber man larkham
