St George Illawarra have given the strongest indication yet that NSW Origin fullback Josh Dugan will switch to the centres for the 2016 NRL season.
Dugan trained at both positions in the off-season as coaching staff considered the shift, and winger Jason Nightingale has revealed the 25-year-old is set to play centre in Saturday week's trial against the Warriors in New Zealand.

"At the moment the plan is the play him in the centres. He'll be playing in the centres next week in Nelson," Nightingale told Sky Sports Radio on Thursday ahead of this weekend's Charity Shield against South Sydney.
