Link Dennis Moran was again the hero for London, backing up last week's hat-trick at Wakefield with another treble this time, despite flying to Australia and back this week following a family bereavement.

tend to agree. think he needs a full week training with squad as a bare minimum before being considered. We've spent the last few weeks training with jeffries/deacon as the halves combo and it'd be a bit silly to change that a day or two before the game for player possibly suffering jet lag and definitely missing match fitness. Plus it would be very harsh on jeffries.
Now against huddersfield in a couple of weeks is a different matter. If jeffries goes well this week then maybe use langley as an out and out prop while lynch is out and bird at 13.

Whilst I agree about not fast tracking him into the starting line up, a bench spot may be considered.

I am sure the Bulls marketing could use the 'Beaver and Bird' home debut's to try and get a good opening attendance. Hull KR usually travel pretty well, so the club will no doubt be disappointed with anything less than 11-12k.

true but they could market beavers home debut this week followed by bird the next home game so get two good gates instead of one ( although the innuendo isnt as good )

not if he's only got off the plane a day or so before after not playing for six months - thats just asking for an injury

So how long do you leave it then before he plays then. Do you leave it another month so that would be 7 months since he last played. So going on your logic that increases his chance of injury even further. It's not like he's been injured he will have been training the entire time so he's going still be fairly fit just not fully match fit.
