TRENDING: Lewis Dodd, who is headed to the South Sydney Rabbitohs, may be replaced by St Helens in four different ways, according to Paul Wellens.

Despite losing halfback Lewis Dodd to the South Sydney Rabbitohs of the NRL, head coach Paul Wellens of ST HELENS is already looking for a replacement.

In the Super League and Challenge Cup during the previous five seasons, Dodd—who just inked a long-term contract with the Redfern club in Australia—joined the Saints Academy in 2017 and has already amassed 26 tries, 13 goals, and one field goal.

Now that Dodd needs a long-term replacement, Wellens has identified four options that the Merseyside club may pursue.

“Going out and signing another seven as a direct replacement is one of the options,” Wellens stated.

Additionally, Moses has participated in the seven shirt. As you mentioned, we are able to sign a one or a six and shift Johnny Lomax into a seven.

We also need to acknowledge that our junior system contains a few inexperienced half-backs.

“One, recently back from a major injury, is Will Roberts. We don’t want to stand in the path of this young athlete, who is extremely talented.

In addition, George Whitby, a 19-year-old, will soon join us full-time.
