I would like to know just what injuries both Sau and Ellis have sustained.

Looking at how much more energetic we looked with Peats (who has Impressed me) in the halves against Castleford id be tempted to leave him there, he looked much sharper and busy in the middle.

Bell looked great and clearly has great hands and looked dangerous everytime he had the ball, ill guarantee we lose him after May 1st transfer date, we need specialist back rows, not props playing out of position. Easier said than done I know but what a difference another Reni Maitua would make.

We released Sammutt for Wallace

Some good points there Binosh. Who would you have interchange with Hood?

Peats into the halves and Matty Wildie to interchange with Hood, unless he is out injured.

Team I would like to see for Friday assuming all are fit
Russell,
Sau, Thornley, Gelling, Simms
Bell, Peats
Sidlow, Hood, Flower, Hellewell, Peteru, Thompson

Interchange; Wildie, Gerrard, Mason, Ioane

Not a bad choice that pal, I'm just worried about all the shuffling but, if it works, and we get the result, I'll be the 1st one to praise you.

I honestly can’t believe we didn’t retain Gregg McNally for the money he was probably on, got slated for his defence but Brierley is just a joke, consistently out of position and his tackling is at FB has been embarrassing. Gregg’s link play and 3 on 2 passes in good attack are what we need right now as we look so clunky & slow.

I agree,and we've not done any better with our dismal recruitment either but,can i also say that we've chopped and changed in the halfbacks so much for 5 years thinking if we spend more we'll get better. Our last best halfback pairing was Riddy & Drinkwater (2016), yet we can't seem to grasp what is required at 6 & 7. If Degsey has the the money to spend, he should have got a top quality (hopefully NRL) half back from the off. It now looks like we are trying different permutations until we get the right balance. It just might end up being too late before we get there. Let's see what happens hence forth.

Wallace came with a huge rep, maybe him and peats could be the missing links with Bell at 13. I would go peats and Reynolds on Friday with Bell at 13 and run with 1 hooker.

Wallace needs to learn he’s not on holiday.

We have had a rough deal when we got the nod
The players we have are here now and they need our support
I think we do need about 3 more to help us out when we have injuries
I go with utility players and a winger
I think with the props we have enough and when all fit well be ok
We are ok with the FB till Elliott is ready Ryan isn’t doing a bad job
When we get all the players back a bit of competition for places will help us
Also fans back will be a big boast

I agree, we deserve to be boasted about.
