I don't think McLelland would let anybody down. It's just the physical aspect isn't it? He's very good in D for a half but it's different when you've got 18st SL props charging at you.

Honestly think the lad has a better all-round game than Myler, but whether this is the right team and right situation to put him in... then again when is the perfect time?

He may definitely get his chance now that Myler is on a one game ban charge.

Richie Myler banned for the game. Would expect either Smith, McLelland or Sutcliffe in the halves.

Walker
Briscoe Newman Hurrell Handley
Lui Sutcliffe
Seumanufagai Dwyer Peteru
Ferres Martin
Merrin

Lunt Oledzki/Cuthbertson/Singleton/Smith/Donaldson

I think you have to go with McClelland if it's not working move Sutcliffe there.

Myler is banned. I would be hoping that my selection in a previous post would come true and Mclleland get a shot at 7 with Lui, but I imagine Sutcliffe will partner Lui.

Serendipity - I would deffo give McLelland the 7 shirt, or failing that a place on the bench at least.

They'll probably go with Sutcliffe because Hull are a big side.

Walker
Briscoe
Newman
Hurrell
Handley
Lui
McLelland
Singleton
Lunt
Cuthbertson
Martin
Ferres
Merrin

Sutcliffe
Dwyer
Oledski/Peteru
Ava

I'd go with that.

Surely cannot go with Smith in the halves after what happened the last time we tried him there at home v Wakefield

Golding (never gonna happen) so Walker
Briscoe
Newman
Hurrell
Handley
Lui
McLelland
Ava
Lunt
Singleton
Sutcliffe
Martin
Merrin

Subs
Dwyer
Oledzki
Peteru
Cuthbertson

Why would you drop walker? He was one of the only players from the weekend who brought the level of energy and attitude desired.

what possible reason would you have to drop Walker?

I'd rather have Dwyer replacing Myler. Not the time to throw McLelland in. Peteru can't start either. Mr Average (for an overseas quota player) hasn't played in weeks.
