So no one back this week from injury and also minus suspended Sao and Wynne, very slim pickings indeed.. Also sounds like Mau, Griffin and Swift may well be way of returning anytime soon judging from Hodgsons comments. Connor/Smith Walker Simm Mitch McIntosh Smith/Connor Gale Evans Lovodua Brown Lane Longstaff Fash Laidlaw Taylor Balmforth Severs Taylor lucky in that he'll be in the 17 more out of necessity rather than form. As much as I'd like to see Barron or Martin on the wing not sure we have enough experience in the centre's to do it. Not sure if to keep Connor at 6 with Smith at FB or have Connor at FB with Smith at 6.

Doing it tough.

Maybe give Lewis Martin a go on one wing?

Can't go with Simm, Longstaff and Martin.

I think Smith will play centre, with the amount of players out, we can't have an experienced NRL player sat on the bench for half ten game.

I've seen BH describe him as a 14, so that's why I stuck him on the bench. Ellam has indicated Smith at centre, so we could well see him there.

Full strength he may play off the bench, but now needs must.

Smith for Wynne
Laidlaw for Dai
Balmforth for JJ

Keep the rest the sake, not a lot else we can do at the moment.

Who knows with Brett's interchange policy, as long has he doesn't get the 17th mans come on at 77 minutes role
