The same way all teams do.

There are plenty of players capable of scoring points in that team and you know it. You can't use the missing players as an excuse.

Didn't Jowitt put 3 past Leeds last year or did you forget that one?

I'm thinking

1 Asthall Bolt
2 Senior
3 Arundall
4 Lyne
5 Kershaw
6 Jowitt
7 Lino
8 Fifita
9 Wood
10 Arona
11 Batchelor
12 Tanginoa
13 Westerman

14 Eaves
15 Green
16 Battye
17 Pitts/Crowther

I kinda want to play Crowther but not sure about him in second row so I think I go for Pitts
I think Ashurst isn't no. 1 choice for SR at the moment and needs time.

Kay, Walker, Ashurst and Crowther missing out
I could be convinced about Crowther as he's valuable in the team.


For me, Crowther's defence is stronger than Eaves and I would have in in the 17 for that reason alone.
Leeds pack is pretty big and our defence, for 80 minutes, will be key.

I'm not sure why you want me to predict something like that but our back line and forwards are all capable of scoring, it's just we have been too slow in thought and pass up to now.
I think the two Hookers will help with that a lot.

But ultimately we have to be at least even in the forwards to get that chance.

He's stronger than most in defense, its just that we need the distribution.
So I'm happy for him to be on the field, just not at Hooker when we have an actual Hooker available.

It's a good enough squad to beat Leeds, old man Gale or not.

Exactly this. Eaves looked strong in defence on his short stint last week anyway. Think he put in 4 consecutive tackles in one set at one point. Looking forward to seeing more from him.

Tupou is paying the price for his poor defensive choices and conceeding a number of try’s last week.

My team would be:

Bott
Kershaw
Arundel
Lyne
Senior
Jowitt
Lino
Green
Wood
Arona
Tanginoa
Batchelor
Westerman

Eaves
Fifita
Battye
Walker/Crowther

But defence isn't the problem so much now, it's the attack, in which case a real hooker trumps a stand in one.

no I’ve not forgot anything but our back line just look well short of fire power without tj and bill who are the only ones who make breaks
