    Wouldn't be against it, but to be fair to Scales he's been one of our better players this season and I wouldn't be dropping CCV yet.

    Aye there was a number of times he did it. Some quality interceptions as well..

    He's majorly surprised and impressed me of late..

    He showed up a lot of real senior players last night, him and Donovan..

    Not a chance for me. Our back line has actually been good for the most part so far this season so no way should we change CCV and Scales as the center back pairing for this weekend IMHO. I really like what I have seen from Dane Murray so far this season and he will get games over the course of the season but its very much still in a back up role for now with Murray I think.

    He’s too good to be sitting on the bench and he needs games, i think he has everything.

    He should be playing every post Euro game this year

    He's coming in from the cold really, Rodgers would have needed to have given him game time recently to expect he can just step in.

    Still player more recently than Trusty or Pusey but aye your right not had much game time recently.

    Squad rotation isn't something Rodgers is particularly strong at and seems every season he runs players into the ground until their bodies give out

    Pretty sure BR has labelled him as the stand in for CCV for RCB this season when both were fit. Happy to be corrected on that but sure he’s said that verbatim.

    He needs to get the chance to stand in. Trusty isn’t comfortable on the right neither is Scales. If he doesn’t, after what he’s shown when he’s had the opportunity then it just undermines his confidence, and sends a message to every other youngster they won’t get a chance, even after we’ve said it publicly and injuries has them as the option to step in.

    He absolutely would if it was any other game except Hearts this season at Tynecastle in a massive game. Thats the only doubt i have that he might opt for Trusty. But he shouldn’t

    I doubt he throws in Trusty out of position as his first game back, in a game this big.

    It’ll most likely be Murray. Pretty sure he was set to come on for CCV last night and then sat back down.

    Great opportunity for him, think he's shown up well whenever he's played. Ironically I would've started him against Sturm due to CCVs form.

    Not for me tomorrow. Not sure how fit Trusty is but we will be under a lot of pressure the first 25. I’d take his experience and defending the box over Murray at present. Not to say Murray isn’t a good prospect but I’d definitely go with Trusty, even although there will be a massive imbalance with 2 left footed CB’s at CB.

    Plenty of games to give Murray game time with CCV out. Think Rodgers will go Trusty tomorrow.

    Wouldn't start him, don't rate him on what I've seen so far, got a big mistake in him nearly every time he plays

    Would rather go Scales and Tierney at CB (on the presumption Trusty won't be match fit enough) with Saracchi at LB

    Tierney at CB is a mental suggestion. Absolutely no chance.

    Played there plenty times for Scotland, albeit as a back three, I could see him playing that position with no issues though, what does he not have in your view to play that role?

    Hearts are the most dangerous team in the league from set pieces. Playing a full back at centre back and losing the height and aerial ability of a Murray or Trusty seems suicidal for me.
