I don't think he's lost any speed. Certainly got round the Hudds defence the other week. Just glad that he appears to be putting a run of games together.

I think Newman used to do everything at 100 mph, which could be why he’s picked up injured he looks to be easing his way back in and picking his moments better.

We won’t see the best of Newman until we get some better weather IMO

His strength doesn't come from his size, its from his speed and determination in contact. He's one of those players who runs the ball with more force than someone much bigger. Very similar to Staggs at the Broncos in terms of size, and he breaks tackles the same way.

The squad in full is:

1 Richie Myler
3 Harry Newman
4 Nene MacDonald
5 Ash Handley
6 Blake Austin
7 Aidan Sezer
8 Mikolaj Oledzki
10 Zane Tetevano
11 James Bentley
12 Rhyse Martin
13 Cameron Smith
14 Jarrod O’Connor
15 Sam Lisone
17 Justin Sangare
18 Tom Holroyd
19 James McDonnell
22 Sam Walters
23 Liam Tindall
24 Luis Roberts
26 Corey Johnson
29 Jack Sinfield
Apart from Fusi and Olpherts "injury" we are as near to a full strength squad as we could get.

Big opportunity for Tindall. For a winger he needs to get over the line a few times if he's going to make it. How many first team tries has he scored for Leeds?

one I think

Yep. One try in 18 appearances all up, zero from 13 last year. He's played in some poor teams but even so that's a strike rate that suggests something's not quite there. He played a few games on the left when Handley was out last season and didn't get a try, although playing on the right side last year was a mare, as we only got 6 tries from the right wing all year (one for Briscoe and 5 for Fusitu'a).

Think we'll see a continuation of martin at centre and nene on the wing with Bentley getting another shot.

It is so quite on here! There is a massive element of nervousness before every game with this unpredictable team

I hope Tindall gets a chance, even if we have the cover via SR coming on to move Martin to Centre and Nene to wing if needed.

We need to see what he can do in a team that's doing ok

I agree Tindall has to start.

Give Sangare and McDonnell a break and if Sezer isn`t right maybe play Gannon in the halves.

He might get another run off the bench as per last week.

Gannons not in the 21 and with so many weeks out bringing him back in the halves wouldn't be a good idea. Think we'll see Sinfield there before we do Gannon.

Gannon will be back for Salford, RS confirmed.
