Interesting selection.

I'm intrigued to see if Taylor-Wray plays, if he does presumably it will be FB as I haven't seen him play on the wing. That would be a big ask as it's not just a key position but it also asks him to provide the Williams / Dufty creativity aspect as well.

With Thewlis out, will Lindop drop into the wing position ? And will Bardsley-Rowe play centre ? Im guessing that King will almost certainly play.

Business end of the season and points difference is important so no wholesale changes for me.

Dufty
Lindop
Tai
King
Ashton
Williams
Drinkwater
Harrison
Walker
Vaughan
Nicholson
Holroyd
Bateman

Powell
Musgrove
Philbin
Crowther

Is Thewlis out because of his shoulder?

Re: Squad for London : Fri Aug 09, 2024 5:21 pm  

Be good to see what Bateman can do at LF.

Re: Squad for London : Fri Aug 09, 2024 5:44 pm  

Fitz not even named this week, so obviously mind games the last few weeks cus surely you'd play him in the lightest game of the past month.

Re: Squad for London : Fri Aug 09, 2024 6:19 pm  

Fitz allegedly available for Leeds, and while I'd like him back given the strength in depth we have with the addition of Bateman I only want tk see him back when his shoulder is fully recovered.
Playing the long game I'd rather see him back a week 'late' than optimal.

Exactly what i would go with this, good strong squad. Happy Harrison is back and hope Philbin and King can get back to full fitness in a few weeks

Would be nice to get some rest in Dufty & Vaughan, so that would mean

CTW
Lindop
Tai
King
Ashton
Williams
Drinkwater
Harrison
Powell
Musgrove
Nicholson
Holroyd
Bateman

Walker
Philbin
Crowther
Wood

I’m confident Wood could come in and do a good job, and be good to see CTW get some game time.

Might be pushing it a bit far though?
