Feel a bit sorry for Donald, but think Smithy has to play in these games so would rather it were for Scotty than Senior,Delaney or Webby.

Anyway I do agree - not sure about Ali though. If he can prove is he fit then yes, but we can't risk him if he's going to limp off after 10 mins leaving us a sub down for the rest of the game.

Clarkson has earned his play on form. Eastwood has earned nothing.

What not even a free offer of a lift to the airport?

I hope we are both full strength or as close as we can be. We'll certainly be missing Grix and Bridge by the sounds of it. Otherwise we currently have everybody available. Amazing if that's still the case in three weeks.

Unless Ali and Eastwood can get through the Catalans game unscathed I wouldn't play either of them, we can't afford to be going down to 16 or 15 during the final if we have fully fit fowards available to play.

If we don't suffer any injuries then there will be some tough decisions for Bluey, hope Clarkson isn't the fall guy.

" Nothings changed for all the deaths or their ideas created, its just the same fascistic games but the rules arent clearly stated nothings really different , all governments the same , they can call it freedom , but slavery is the game ":d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_1106.jpeg



I hope we only field players who are 100% fit , we have history of playing CC finals with players who were obviously unfit and it cost us dearly .

Don't let the b*****ds get you down!!!!!:1104.jpg



Ablett in Diskin out. Buderus should play the full 80. Bailey, Ablett, Burgess and Eastwood on the bench. We played much better when Buderus was on the pitch. I know Diskin has been a good player for us over the years but sentiment shouldnt come into it.

Blimey.....you're brave...stand back and await the backlash from certain posters icon_lol.gif

IMO though and IF everyone is fit I'd agree with you regarding Diskin.

Burrow can fill in at dummy half IF Buderus needs a rest and having 4 big blokes/impact players on the bench would be the way to go IMO.

I know it's a big IF, but a fit Eastwood and Ali on the bench could hopefully swing things in our favour with Bailey and Burgess also on the bench.

Some very touch decisions for Bluey and some players are obviously going to be dissapointed and fans on here will argue over the merits of the selections whoever gets 'rested' for the final.

Given how Bluey went on Saturday leaving BOTH Frogga and 'Tony McCoy' Senior in the centres when many felt one would be moved to the 2nd row to cover injury and suspension,then assuming he sticks with that,one of the backs is going to get left out,especially if Disko gets the nod on the bench,which I think he will as I cannot see us going with say Smith on the bench with Disko and 2 props.

Given his 'rotation' the last two games it looks like either Smith or Donald could miss out which would be a shame for either.

A selection headache will be a bit novel this season when for the most part we've being looking for the 17 available fit bodies.

Assuming yesterday's team all remain fit plus Higham, I'd see only one possible change - Higham in for Vinnie Anderson. If Bridge manages to make it somehow, then I've no idea what Smith would do.

Bailey has been improving week on week for the last 2 months. On Saturday he was the best prop on the pitch IMO. His stats of 120m @ 15 hit ups go someway to showing this.

Ablett is not a bench player. He is the best 2nd rower at Leeds and will start unless he picks up an injury in training.

Smith vs Donald is an interesting one. Thought Smith showed a lot on Saturday and looked dangerous everytime he took the ball up. He's a hard one to put down isnt he icon_lol.gif

Id prob go...

Webb
Donald/Smith (see who plays the best rugby over the next 2 weeks)
Delaney
Senior
Hall
Sinfield
McGuire
Bailey
Buderus
Peacock
Ablett
Jones-Buchanan
Clarkson

Burrow
Leuluai
Burgess
Lauitiiti

Smith/Donald/Diskin/Eastwood

OK, This wont happen I know as Burrow will get the 6 jersey but I think this represents our best line up atm with Burrow coming off the bench as a back up hooker. Diskin too wont miss out and I fear for Clarksons spot but its a good position to be in when we might be leaving 3 of Eastwood, Smith, Diskin and Donald out.

It looks good for the next 2 months anyway with Pitts and Ambler also quality replacements to keep the squad fresh before the playoffs.

BTW I just get the feeling I have forgot someone
