Smith and Eastmond for me as half backs with Tin Head on the bench just in case Eastmond gets hipped again.
I like this idea. Covers all bases. Either that or just forget Eastmond, who I think is the riskier of the two, and have Smith at 7 and Lomax at 6.
But that would be at the expense of Clough or Emmitt, hard decision for Mick.
Emmitt would be dropped for mine. We can't be without Cloughie. He's worth his weight in gold.

It'd be harsh for Emmitt to miss out, he's been very good recently and Dixon also did well against Warrington.
We can't have everyone - ha! never thought I'd say that this season! - and since Emmitt has decided we are not good enough for him, he'd be my first choice drop!
Dixon should be in for mine if there is a bench spot available. However, while we do need grunt up front we also need some flexibility bearing in mind half of our halfback combo (should Smith be picked) is likely not really to be fit.
