What's your favourite cake ?

Ryan Hall to play at........

I love muffin.




Thought i would get there before bloodbath did

I know the Rhinos cheerleaders spent more time on the field than McShane did on Friday night but he didn't play well when he came on. Griffin looked impressive.

Is it though ???

Attended the game specifically to view how the loss of Buderus would be dealt with.

Was surprised to say the least to see Burrow starting and far from impressed with the result of that decision but I guess he ahd to tryand it might as well be now.

Looking forward to see any further developments next game.

Aslo under consideration is our defence down the right hand channel.

Bet he fancies a run at centre now that Hardaker is inside him

I'm guessing that in every supporters head there is "the Perfect Team" selected from any one of 20 or so individual players and I'm guessing that when some individuals turn up at a game and don't see their "Perfect Team" as the starting 13 then instantly the brain switches to "Moan Mode" and the questions spew out thick and fast, "Why isn't xxx playing. Why is xxx playing there when he should be here. Why is xxx sat in the stand with a broken arm..." that sort of thing, I'm sure we've all stood in front of one of those people.

Truth is, "The Perfect Team" rarely line up in their perfect formation right through the season but there is an element of support who just cannot understand that concept.

It's like the mourning after Diana died. People are now attending games in memory of Buderus. Sheeeesh!

Made no comment on how Buderus performed just the fact that he was a mssing factor.

My interest in team selection is based on 12 years of imput in that field albeit at a much lower level than SL.

My "perfect team" is always the one presented by the person selecting it.

Friday night was no exception and no criticism was offered before or during the game just rather a personal analysis and comment on the outcome.

Now there's an original concept. In over 4 decades of watching I can't think of a game that I've attended because someone isn't playing.

1st game down, whinger is already out


as we know it doesnt matter until playoffs start how we play

In 5 decades of watching playing and coaching RL I cant either........ but then of course thats NOT what I said is it.

even then it wouldnt have been the sole reason for going given the freezing conditions.

Getting back ON TOPIC I dont think McDs selections are crazy ..

experimental maybe or even tactical at this stage.
