I'd have no problem playing Albert on the wing. It gets him in the team and adds pace to the backline.

I was just thinking how Matt Wright is on the wing, and he isn't a safe winger OR a strike winger.

I was thinking of what other options we could go with that are at least on par of him in generic winger skills, but would offer more in attack.

Kelly is a decent suggestion. I can't see him being any worse than Wright. Then there's even oddball suggestions like Tagataese. I know I know, but would he really be any worse than Wright? And then in attack he'd be massive one on one against many other wingers. Would be funny to see at least.

Move Best out on to the wing (he has plenty of experience there) and run Taga as outside centre... not too sure what his fitness is like and whether it would last the 80 minutes but he would add some grunt to the backline.

IMO if a backrower is going to play centre it has to be Friz. I can't see us changing our centres this week, they were a highlight for mine.

I had a read of the tigers forum after the game, found it funny that half of the forum was calling for ayshfords head hahaha I would kill for him.
