Just noticed it is on Sky. This will make it more difficult to get a decent crowd. Let's hope we don't have another rainy day.

Hence the £5 offer.

I'm not worried about it being on Sky, but the fact we'll still only have one fit half-back. I cant bear to watch another game of Theo trying to do it all on his own. Hopefully if Locke isn't back by then, we'll see Evalds filling in at 6.

According to Radio Manc before the Hudds game Locke is out for 6 weeks having a knee operation!

Is there no chance of Dobbo being fit by the Warrington game?

No chance of Dobbo being fit, I would have thought he has got at least another 6 weeks too. If that is true about Locke, then we must switch Evalds into 6, put BJB at 1 and play Johnson and MCB on the wings.

have you seen the state of us?

We made Leon Pryce look like a stand off at the weekend..... seriously the lad struggles to make the transition from walking to jogging. yet we treated him like Darren Lockyer in his pomp.

Stick anyone in the halves even if they dummy and go time after time after time, we'll still struggle to cope with it.

FB, just as one swallow does not make a summer, one poor match will not stop your team progressing up the table.

Re: match V Warrington : Tue May 12, 2015 1:32 pm  

Patterson is due back & it may be a left field move to possibly put him in at #6.

We need pivots and Evalds is NOT a pivot he`s a finisher.

Can we put some castors on Ian Watson? We must get that ball wider and having 2 pivots minimum is the answer.

Re: match V Warrington : Tue May 12, 2015 2:13 pm  

Think i'd look at sticking Hood at 6 / 7 for a game along side Fages , move someone like Walton or one of the Walne's at 9 then stick Patterson in 2nd row / centre. Caton-Brown isn't a centre yet , too small and not physical enough. Try to win the early physical game in the pack , and run their forwards about a bit.

Re: match V Warrington : Tue May 12, 2015 2:33 pm  

Patterson played centre at the Catalans game and was brilliant - if we are re-shuffling that's a move I'd start with.
