I hope Wheeler gets chance to prove himself at 6 IMO he's the best 6 we have at the club.

Always thought that. Trouble is can he go the distance, taking into account his injury record?

A flurry of snow has fallen, not much but if you are coming come wrapped up warm. Although most of you will have set off by now.

Makes me laugh how people whirl themselves into a frenzy on here over stupid things. Why would we bother bringing in a head coach on good money to take a back seat and let Rush pick the team? He didn't even pick the team last year it was mainly KC! Makinson IMO looks short on confidence and could do with some time at a lower grade so we don't end up with another Foster. Gaskell unfortunately isn't good enough for Saints and has been rightfully dropped.

Interesting team selection, and surprising that Makinson and Gaskell have been dropped. Hopefully it won't backfire.

Really unsure about them halfbacks. Wilkin is a great tackler but atrocious kicking the ball. Lot of pressure on Wheeler today too.

Might be a long day today..

Wilkin kicked the ball soundly. It's different kicking from halfback, he had more time and space. Split the FB and winger most of the time. Also chase a very good kick in goal. Not seen that for a few years. He did not make the tackle. But gave the impetus for other players to tackle the FB on the try line. 8/10 for Wilkin I'd say.
