I watched the Sheff v York 1st half and it was a quicker game than Fev v Bulls. I thought Fev were just about competent and we'd need to improve significantly to beat Sheff.

Everyone keeps telling me that outside of Fev, Toulouse, Leigh and York the sides are much of a muchness and we'll finish comfortably in mid table and could get as high as 5th. However I think we're in danger of being complacent.

Pollsters doing Excellent job - say recent polls.

Re: Round 1: Sheffield : Thu Mar 25, 2021 9:25 am  
So we’ve Murphy and Evans to fit in, only Hallas is definitely out.
You can’t fault any of the 17 against Fev for effort. Who’s going to cover 13? Evans or Fleming may be able to - or 1 of the second row? Murphy, Gallagher or Rooks?
My own thought would be Evans to 13. Murphy to start, Rooks to the bench. Both B England and Walker to miss out with Levy getting a bench spot.

Re: Round 1: Sheffield : Thu Mar 25, 2021 11:21 am  
I don't really rate Rooks at all. I'd maybe bring Murphy off the bench with it being his first game.

The big decision is at HB. I know Brown has had some criticism but he hasn't really seemed to have had a role IMO I haven't really liked us having him at stand off one minute then out on the wing the next. Think last week should have been used to see what Race could do.

I think having a third prop at 13 is definitely the way to go with us unsure at HB

Re: Round 1: Sheffield : Thu Mar 25, 2021 11:47 am  
I think being moved around from one position to another can make it really difficult for a young player. Especially given that it's been ages since we played properly so I'm prepared to cut Brown some slack for a while.

I too think Gallagher is ahead of Rooks. If Murphy is fit he gets in the team. Hallas is a big loss as we missed his workrate and commitment.

Personally I think apart from Murphy who we haven't seen yet, Brad England has been our best 2nd row followed by Gallagher.

I so can't wait for this, was absolutely gutted re the Fev game but the league is the biggie. Not saying we will win the comp, I'd be well happy if we get into the top 5 or even 6th.
