Hurrell will be a huge lost for us attack wise, yes he comes up with errors but there's no doubt he's our biggest threat in opposition 20, from the 21 I think agar will go with

Don't think playing against saints is the right game to throw the likes of Mclelland and Broadbent into but they will get there chances this season.

Surprised at L Sutcliffe omision is he injured or has he pi$$ed off Agar?

Had an op hasnt he?

I dont know thats why i asked if he was injured.If so that would explain it.

This is how i would go. But i wouldn't be surprised if we see Handley moved inside with both Briscoe's on the wing and Sutcliffe on the bench and big Tom missing out.

Shame Hurrell out - I fancied Naiqama to stand him up a few times given he's in worse shape than he was for the game last year he grabbed a hatty in.

Am I the only one who thinks Hurrell is pants?

Like genuinely. I think he is rubbish. 90% of the game passes him by.

While I wouldnt say "Pants" I would say very frustating sometimes.

I still dont think lobbing him poor ball and expecting him to conjure tackle busts from a standing start is the way to utilise him on a consistent basis, its no good for him as he's usually gang tackled into oblivion and gasses easily.

When we play to his strengths, ie running onto a ball at pace he's devastating (if a little erratic with his handling)

I’m hoping Gale will get more out of Hurrell this year.

It makes me feel better to know ive been following the same training regime as a SL player.

Inconsistent but certainly not pants. He has the xfactor for me but needs to cut out mistakes. He looked very unfit in the last game to me and Agar alluded to it by saying he needs a few games to get up to prime condition again

I don't think Hurrell will ever cut out the mistakes however much he tries - but as I say I'm actually happy with that, it's a joy to watch him play Watch RL for entertainment at the end of the day.

Agreed. I also think he’s great for morale also

Be interesting to see how we go without him. I disagree about accepting his mistakes tho its not acceptable to keep on making handling errors and he needs to improve in that area and defensively also but to me hes our biggest weapon by a mile and im not sure who we have to cause Saints trouble if im honest.

My point about accepting mistakes is, I don't think he'll ever get rid of them so taking that it account I still prefer him in the team team than not because I enjoy watching him play.

We might get a spanking on Sunday but Im not sure we need to fear Saints as much as is made out on here, they were pretty dire before lockdown and they played a what looked to me disinterested Catalan team last week.
