With the pitch resembling a ploughed field maybe we could grow some turnips and play them at centre . I can hear it on the tannoy ‘ no 4 j turnip sponsored by farmfoods ‘ followed by a big roar from the crowd.

I will hold off saying who i would play and where until the squad is released tomorrow. Basically so i can see if we have anyone from Leeds other than Smith because it is pretty much guess work as to who is fit from the players named.

In my opinion moving Woody would be a mistake. It took several seasons to find his position and is our best attacking threat from fullback. As has previously been said that threat is nullified when he plays at centre.
KKav at centre would be my option with Gee the other especially given the state of the pitch. The pack then picks itself from all that are available though whether strong enough to contain Sheffields i doubt.
I always go full of optimism so a Fax win by 6.

Almost as my post...ive no issue with Smith at centre though,leave Gee in pack unless we're calling reinforcements...

Well another mystifying line up.No forwards from Leeds but a full back.DR is utter e but our use of it is ten times worse....or should I say what we're told to use of it is...are we only allowed to name Hudson when he's not fit to play..

Seen the squad, preparing myself for astons Cheshire Cat grin in the post match interview.

32-16 to Sheffield.

Agree that weekly squad announcements are a complete waste of time, no idea if Douglas and Eden are fit and bringing in a young fullback when that's position we are probably strongest is non sensical. Can only think this means shunting JWH to centre and lining up Keyes to get battered again as replacement hooker. Can't see Keyes looking for a contract extension if he's going to be messed about like this, and very little confidence about the outcome of Sunday's game - although I shall be delighted to be proved wrong.

Yes it does look like Woody will be moved to centre with the young lad from Leeds at fullback unless he could play on the wing. Does that solve the problems we clearly have at centre and in the pack no. Selection wise from that squad i am really struggling to pick a side, after last week's game i would of like to have dropped a number of players but we cant. All i can hope for is we have a big upturn in performance get stuck into Sheffield and you never know.

Why on earth would we move one of the best, if not the best, full backs in the league? We moved Woody around for ages until he found his best position.

Just watched Finns pre match press conference - Douglas a possibilty although I'm not holding my breath - didnt sound as though Eden playing so looks like new DR is being lined up for centre/wing. Our backline does not fill me with confidence.

Just to be clear i do not want Woody at centre i would go with what others have said and put Kav there with Ben Hursey in the second row. Lumb is a fullback but he could play wing or could be a squad filler i just can't see him playing centre.

If Woody is moved to make way for a dr player i've never heard of, i'll give up!

Rumor seems to be it will still be Woody at FB and new DR player on the wing, I know I saw people say Salty had a bit of a mare Sunday but you have to presume if fit he is going to be in the team so the suspicion has to be that Eden is still not fit. Im going for Eden, Douglas, Tibbs, and Campbell as the 4 that miss out with Tibbs or Campbell 18th man.

Edit: Just seen they interviewed Salty after the team was named to the players so it would be a major surprise if he did not play.

Just seen that Jack smith as played for the Rhinos reserves today so he will not be playing either. Also Kieran Hudson played for them too, before you say it Hudd- Shay what a complete and utter shower DR is.

On the face of it very frustrating, but Leeds have a lot of injuries and obviously need to field a team, even in a reserve fixture rather than send players to Halifax. This situation isn't Leeds fault or fault of DR - unfortunately the fault lies with Fax, initially for running with too thin a squad, but then compounding this when you know you have a number of key long term absences not securing some form of loan cover that we can actually rely on. While I'm no lover of DR it can occasionally work to cover a short term unexpected problem but not 2/3 month injuries. Sadly it may well be finances that are dictating how we go on - if that's the case until majority of players are back on the field, I'm not at all confident about our chances against anyone.
