But whoever is played on Saturday, they'll have their hands full trying to deal with Rueben Reed (sp?).
Exile,
Cant see Hunty playing CB due to his reluctance to head the ball !!
He tends to block his man then duck under the ball and take the throw in, and is very good at it.
He commits himself to the tackle rather than jockeying/chasing down the opposition and his experience helps in this,hence i don't really know how fast he is !!!
Different animal altogether centre back and for me hes a clever fullback,who reads the game and picks his runs intelligently
