Green in 19 for Cas and with Fleming back should run with our own this week unless we're told to take Clare again.

Trueman is not though will be worth giving him a run to sort are issue in the half's

we're not that desperate yet.

Possible doubts over Murrel and Butler who both took knocks, ankle and head?

Possible doubts over the game being played with temperatures set to plunge?

As expected Clare only DR.Ben Johnstone back in 19.Grady/Butler out but Murrell named.

Who to miss out, any 2 from the Bens and Sion?

If the game is on of course.

Clare. What's the point of this? Any answers?

When the form winger of last season's middle eights and with 1 try in 1 appearance this season hands a transfer request in for lack of opportunity,we can all reflect that at least we kept a Cas winger fit in case needed at his parent club....

I think this selection confirms to me that there just isn't a game plan with what to do with the halves. For 3 years we have been going around in circles and we get to a game where he has chance to try out some changes and what happens he picks the same players who have shown time and time again they are not top 4 . If we don't try something different we will never find out what works and what doesn't.

RM clearly rates Clare saying “He is a very good player, a very very good player.”
Ben Heaton had better offers from elsewhere but chose to stay for 1 more year because of the team bond.
Sadly there doesn’t seem to be a coach bond for some strange reason.
On the halves.
As Jenson says if the same people are asked to do the same things the same way you can only get the same result.

And come the day(if ever) he proves he's a very,very good player will he be turning out for us the following week...will he hell.His only use is the day we are down to one fit winger,end of.

Rather, the coach sees it differently, end of.

Aye, this is the coach who said he wouldn't use DR due to the detrimental effect it would have on our reserve team. We're only taking Clare for the sake of it. Can you imagine RM looking at our potential team for the Rochdale game and thinking, what position do I need to strengthen? Half back maybe? No, I'll take a winger instead. Now then Mr Powell, please could we have.....

Yes he did say that some time back concerning DR and he has obviously changed his mind which is his perogative, the book stops with him being the head coach.
There’s no point in speculating on a conversation between him and DP which only exists in imagination.

And seemingly a lot of fax fans given last year's vitriol against the system
