Round 17 vs. Leeds (loss)

I can't see Burgess ever playing Dufty there unless we were absolutely desperate due to injuries.

Drinkwater may not be setting the world alight at the moment (I thought that he was doing ok when he came back into the side following Hayes' injury), but he's the best option that we have to partner Williams for the remainder of the season. The coaches need to get the best out of him that they can.

I agree. He was playing OK whilst the team was playing well but not many have played well v Wigan (Cup), Salford & Hull. Williams & Ratchford have also struggled as his half-back partner.

Someone in aus(think it was Peter Tunks)said dufty was a brilliant 6 when first coming through as a youngster. Next time we have an injury problem at half back i'd put him in there and have taylor-wray at full back. Also, when we are struggling at centre then lindop should be in. We need to keep ratchford away from the first team these days, its painful watching him and the 1 year extension is mind boggling.

If it keeps ratchford out of the team, yes.
