Still no Tetevano, and no word of why hes still out?

Edit: Just seen on the website covid, or is it long term effects of covid?

adding him to the form of the current pack is an exciting prospect.

It certainly is Seth.If Prior stays plus Bentley we have a pack to more than match anyone in SL.

Handley
Broadbent Briscoe Hurrell Briscoe
Lui Sutcliffe
Oledzki Leeming Prior
Gannon Mellor
Martin

Dwyer Thompson Donaldson Holroyd

O’Connor Mclelland Walters Tindall

It really is. Of course the positive of having so many out is that kids get more minutes and that will benefit them and the club long term going forward.

Tetevano back in this pack would really make the pack a force.

I would rather Sutty stayed at 1 than Handley if im honest. More of a passing game.

If we can add a top quality 6 we could be cooking on gas

I wouldn’t mind that either, but it’s what I’d expect from Agar. He likes L Briscoe and he’s not playing badly, but you can’t leave Handley out.

My preference:

Sutcliffe
Broadbent Briscoe Hurrell Handley
Lui Leeming
Oledzki Dwyer Prior
Mellor Gannon
Martin

Holroyd Donaldson Thompson Oconnor/Walters

L Briscoe Walters/O’Connor Mclelland Tindall

O’Connor over Walters simply because he covers the hooker position any 9 - 13

Quite true, but we could also have Tetevano, Smith, Gale and Vuniyayawa back for Catalans.

Hope we do get him back soon. He's not got really got started yet, with just the four and a bit games. Nobody is going to fancy taking us on down the middle with Tet, Prior, Oledski and Tommy waiting for them. Shades of 98/99.

Mik, Holroyd, Walters, O’Connor.

Another effort from Leeming and Dwyer for this game, then Gale returns and should allow the hookers to reduce minutes.

Lui sounds busted. I’d play McLelland for this one if fit.

If Smith is fit for Cats I’d play Donno at 13 and have O’Connor as cover for 13, 9 or 7.

Mik and Tom on the bench just to keep them out of early exchanges.
