It would cause less disruption to have Sykes in at 6. Esp if Langley out as Addy will be at 13. Everyone else can stay where they are then.

Or just play Addy at 6 and Elima at 13.

is addy a 6 though? I think addy played well enough at the weekend to start at 13, and he is a 13. That would allow elima to play at 2nd row, which is also his best postion. playing sykes there would mean 1 player out of position, although id be suprised if he has nt been training there. also, we would then have a goal kicker.

Yeah, that's my point really. Sykes at 6 causes minimum disruption to the team that has been gelling pretty well over the last few weeks.

It's tricky to assess whats best for Stand Off on Saturday

I remember that at the start of last season loads of people screaming for Addy to get a game at 6. He was picked in that position for the away game at Crusaders, and played so poorly there that he actually got substituted and didn't play again for the first team again for ages.

So we need to bear that in mind when talking about where to play Addy (who I agree, after last week, deserves to be in the team, or on the bench at least)

That said, I never want to see Paul Sykes in the Stand Off role ever again after his efforts there in the past. Unless he has somehow miraculously improved out of all recognition by heart will sink on Saturday if he is read out as the starting Stand Off.

Then there is Kearney, but I honestly don't think that Potter will move him from Full Back unless its absolutely unavoidable.

So, there isn't a good answer really - just the least worst of the available options

Re: 17/3/12 | Bradford Bulls vs St Helens | 17:15 | #SLBraSt : Thu Mar 15, 2012 11:48 am  

Another option would be Heath & Jeffries as a half back combination. Addy would therefore rotate between covering back row & hooker rather than half back.

Really been enjoying watching the Bulls on Sky recently, even if it is worrying some of my Bradford-based Leeds-supporting family.

What's your predictions for Saturday's game?

What's more worrying is the Russell Group allowing Exeter in. It's like Oxbridge allowing comprehensive school pupils in. It's political correctness gone mad. I'm leaving & going to York.
