Hull KR away (Derby week) : Mon Jun 24, 2019 8:34 am  

There's a good chance that this could be the last meaningful Derby for a long time (unless we draw each other in the Cup)

Squads named tomorrow

If everyone from Saturday is available and Mini and Carlos are back, then this might be Radders toughest team selection in a long time.

I hate being favourites

I like being the favourites when we are the Form team of SL
Form and confidence are beautiful assets
We have them in abundance
Tight game but us by 18

No pressure on us, We have a nice cushion above 6th, as long as we don't panic, we should win this one.

Rovers at home isn't easy though, as Wigan and Warrington have found.

Nothing against young Buchanan who's done well last 2 games, but if Mini is fit, then Mini comes in on that left edge, moving Griff back to centre.

Carlos may need someone to be unavailable or rested to get back in, it's difficult to see who should be left out. Our right edge is firing on all cylinders at the moment.

We will have to see if Albert comes through, he seemed to have a couple of niggles against the French.

I think he'd have to be badly injured to miss out on this one, and judging by Radders post match comments, it didn't sound too bad, although I've learnt to take Radders comments with a pinch of salt these days.

One things for sure, competition for places is finally hotting up and nobody wants to be sat on the sidelines.

Kelly won't make it unfortunately.

Personally I think Leeds are in more bother then rovers as it currently stands. Rovers appeared to have a bit of fight in them and their best player (Garbutt) is due back soon. On the flip side, Leeds look like they have sat in a bath of olive oil before getting on their downward spiral.

Short turn around v what will be a highly pumped rovers. Could go either way.

I'm of the opinion that if Mini and Carlos are both fit, it is Mini that has to work harder to get back in the side. Keep Griffin in the back row. He showed, that when he can get earlier ball, that he is a weapon
