Isn't there a question mark over Oledzki (failed HIA?) and Prior (potential ban)?

If this is correct we could be in trouble. There’s already plenty of blood in the water, we don’t need any more Props missing, we’ve not got enough as it is…

When are we likely to find out if these 2 are available?
Either way I think Mustapha has to get a chance this week, he at least plays with enthusiasm.

Muizz hasnt much chance otherwise, Agar loves 'Bowdene'.

Broadbent will start this week.

At centre? Thought for one minute he might be the latest solution to our "middle" issues. After Corey Johnson at centre against Wigan and then with him getting the hook after 20 minutes on Friday I'm starting my thoughts on positional abilities are hopelessly outdated.

The handling of Johnson has been awful in his 2, and i say 2 loosely, appearences. Really poor from the coaching team.

Could not understand why he went off and never came back on Friday. You can miss things when you are at the game so I assumed he'd made some really sloppy technical errors. Forced myself to watch the first twenty minutes last night and I'm still none the wiser. Thought he was better than the replacement.

Defensively he was poor to ve fair but i know he wasnt alone in that.

A small hooker will tend to struggle if the props are getting battered. Its possible Agar saw that and felt it was unfair to leave him on in that situation? That would be the most positive view. The most negative would be he's picked on a young rookie while more experienced players have played embarrasingly badly. Who knows?

I see Schoey had a dig. This time its a fairly reasonable view - the same as most fans. Although I'm not sure about having a specific go at the halfbacks is right, he's right about the pack being lightweight.

No surprise priors got 1 game with the continued farce with yellows and bans. Bowdene to start, I can barely contain my excitement.

Newman, Oledzki, Prior, Myler, Holroyd, Walters missing this week then
