Quote: nantwichexile "Since when has greater experience being a better guarantee of success ? Senior ? Hauraki has far greater experience than Hardaker for example, but I know who I would have greater confidence in.

Composure and confidence are better attributes over experience. I would suggest Hardaker has oodles ... And does not deserve to be dropped.'"

WTF have Senior and Hauraki got to do with Bjb and Hardaker?
Bjb has the edge over Hardaker and is just as if not more versatile aswell like i said i wouldn't be gutted to see Hardaker selected but this time Bjb shades it.

WTF WTF ! Your argument for dropping Hardaker is his lack of experience.... my argument is that this is no reason to do so. Experience is what the likes of Senior had, but he was error prone esp in defence.... ditto Hauraki.

Hardaker has pure ABILITY ...surely much more important . There is room for both BJB and Hardaker in the threequarters IMO...especially when the only other alternative that appears to be considered is a couple of capable-but-an-embarrasing-option-in-the-threequarters-forwards

The experience i refer to is direct comparison between Bjb and Hardaker and when comparing the 2 Bjb shades it both in Experience in a number of positions at SL level and CC.
Putting either Bjb OR Hardaker in the RC would get levelled by Yeaman ,Manu and Briscoe whereas has already been proved Delaney can handle them.
There's no second chance here and to start F#*king about with either Bjb or Hardaker in the centre when NEITHER has played there this year or even for Leeds would be a ridiculous risk not worth taking when we have a more than capable defensive Centre who's got umpteen games there and proved he can handle the opposition.
I'm with you on more youngsters getting a chance in SL but this game is not the time for that gamble we lose it's season over and it more than likely will be after the Semi but we need to select the best 17 available in the right positions for this game and that means a straight choice for the RW spot between Hardaker and Bjb and for me Bish edges it.

Looks like another Crap Team Structure by McDumbnut.

Should have stuck with Team from last week.

Sh1te!

It's not how much talent you've got, it's what you do with it that counts.:1157.jpg



Master stroke playing the best scrum half at the club as a sub hooker again, only to take off the best player we have, and our only natural hooker in the 17, to bring him on.

McDermott's best attribute is that he makes crap coaches look better than they are.

I think Hardaker, Pitts and McShane should be in the Team and Burrow, McGuire and Sinfield in their actual positions.

Quote: The Biffs Back "As our 19 man squad hasn't been released yet

I can't imagine that we would make too many changes to last weeks side TBH if all are fit for selection, I would definitely keep both Delaney and Ablett in the centre's for this week rather than throw Watkins in at the deep end, surely we can't move too many players about and into different positions can we for this game?

IMO this is our most realistic chance of silverware this season, so If everyone's fit then i think we will go with

Looks like I'm picking the side for Mac icon_lol.gif

We'd have done even better with Hardaker (wing), BJB (centre) and Delaney (SR).... icon_biggrin.gif

....Unless of course you think Hauraki is more deserving of his selection ahead of Hardaker.

(Actually he looking a little better these days, but my main point remains Hardaker did not deserve to be dropped.)

Quote: Dirty Pretty Thing "Sorry, going to have to disagree with you on this one. If you watch Webb when the opposition make a break you will notice how aware he is. Not only is he lining up his man but he directs the cover defence as to which support runners to take.

I would take Lauititi over Kirke / Pitts any day of the week. You can criticise him for being injury prone, however IMO you can't fault his commitment when he does get on the pitch. Some things may not come off for him but I'd rather have him offering the potential of something rather than Kirke offering very little. Ali has played half the game Kirke has and has made more tackle busts, more offloads and scored more tries than Kirke has. I would also guess that despite his declien over recent years, opposition teams are still more fearful of Ali than they ever have been of Kirke which helps create space for others.'"


Would you still have picked Webb? Ok so he got a pass out for a well worked try, but his poor defence and positioning is letting the side down! Kyle managed to run further than him! I'll admit that his second half performance was much better, but I'd prefer a little more consistancy at full back.

Some of the tackling in the first half from webb was very poor, even for Webb
