Definitely Friday night for me as well.
RE-Jjb hopefully it isn't too serious but surely given his I jury record/age etc he should at least play one game for Hunslet before he steps back into SL?

Aiton's only just returned from a long absence, be bloody daft to play him the full 80.

McDermott tipped Achurch to be available this week so the bench back-row spot looks a bit congested between Sutcliffe, S.Ward, Walters, Clarkson.

EDIT - Clarkson has a slight Achilles problem ATM so he won't be in the 17 (doubt he would've been anyway even if fit)


BJB
Briscoe
Watkins
Moon
Hall
Sinfield
McGuire
Leuluai
R.Ward
Peacock
Ablett
Achurch
Delaney

Aiton
Bailey
Singleton
Sutcliffe/S.Ward

If JJB played a game for Hunslet first, he would get injured in it!

So long as he is fit enough to do the photoshoots for the new kits each year, that's all that matters. It is what he is paid for after all; the amount of sales from the never-ending publicity and discussion from here alone before the start of this season was enough to pay his wages until 2015!

Hehe

Is there going to be cake at this birthday party or what?

As a proper journalist should, Wheels asks the pertinent questions.

We should be given an answer.

You never heard of birthday cake ?

Costco birthday cakes are the king of cakes, so much cake that you almost can't eat a whole one without being sick, but I had a damn good go at it.

What I enjoyed best about Costco birthday cakes was that they'd always make one or two for anyone who just walked by and thought "I fancy a paving slab sized block of random unbranded cake for tea tonight", but most of the cakes on the stand were custom made for other people, people who's birthday it was, they'd be specially iced to your own design with "Happy Birthday Uncle Peter" on, if it was your Uncle Peters birthday for example.

Well I used to like to buy THOSE cakes, the ones that had been specially done to order for someone else, you never had to prove that it was YOUR Uncle Peter or even that you had an Uncle Peter (I don't), and everyone would smile at the checkout and say "Hope your Uncle Peter enjoys his birthday cake" and you'd smile back and think "I haven't got a f'kin Uncle Peter you daft bint" but you'd say "I'm sure I will, erm I mean I'm sure HE will" and then sometime later the real people who really had an Uncle Peter who's birthday it was that day would turn up at the bakery counter and demand their cake and the baker would scratch his head and say "But I made it this morning, it was right there..." and the people would kick off big time but ultimately have to take home a cake for a little girls birthday that was going spare, poor Uncle Peter.

Guys. There's cake. Its a Jake and the Neverland pirates cake too.

Only reason he couldn't play is because he had 'illegal' substances in his body to fight his illness, hopefully he trained hard. Shouldn't have taken too much of a dip in fitness

I used to love Friday night games 10 minute walk after the game to the west end 3 or 4 pints then home.i miss Wilson's pies too.i was coming home for. This , but the bike race put me off.Leeds are due a good performance .

Sir kev to 9 when Aiton needs a breather, Sutty into the halves.....simples!!!!!

Assuming these substances are "performing enhancing" Aiton would have been able to train harder and longer during his absence period. It is interesting how the powers that be determine how long the drugs take to exit the body.

That's not how training works these days, there's no particular benefit to training harder or longer. The performance enhancing drugs are to improve performance on game day not during training.

Not true - anabolic steroids or derivatives of help players train longer and harder especially in the gym, HGH helps with energy levels and recovery from injury etc.

What drugs would you suggest only improve performance on match day?

Should see a line up of this then

BJB - Briscoe - Watkins - Moon - Hall
Sinfield - McGuire
Leuluai - Aiton - Peacock
Ablett - Achurch
Delaney

Two ways the bench could go for me,

Bailey
Singleton
Sutcliffe/S.Ward/Walters (as your sub back rower)
L.Briscoe (as sub hooker)

Or

Bailey
Singleton
S.Ward/Walters (sub back rower)
Sutcliffe (to come on for Aiton with Sinfield switching to dummy half)

Wouldn't be surprised to see Bailey start at loose though tbh with Achurch on the bench and Delaney starting at 2nd row.
