I'd start with McShane, he is currently the best hooker at the club. If he were at any other club he'd be a regular in the match day squad.
Sooner or later he will get fed up with the lack of action in our first team.

Latest from sky sports, he will play.

With the way Ward has been talked about all week, I'd guess they knew McGuire wouldn't be playing. I'd go:

Webb
BJB
Watkins
Hardaker
Hall
Sinfield
Burrow
Leuluai
McShane
Peacock
Clarkson
Delaney
Ablett

Moore
Griffin
Kirke
Ward

I'd be tempted to swap Hall and BJB to make sure Hall gets the best service possible but the Watkins/BJB link is working well so probably not worth breaking up ATM.

Think Ward will get 15 mins or so either side of half time. McShane off, Burrow to 9 and Ward into the halves.

Kirke might go into the second row to give one of Clarkson, Delaney or Ablett a break.

.

Not sure if he is better than Hood...but I agree he should start at 9 on Sunday for the reasons you state.

Webb's not playing today

Linky?

Rhinos win!

If so, I hope he keeps BJB on the wing with Smith at FB ( and not the other way round ).

Smith
Hall
Watkins
Hardaker
BJB
Ward
Burrow
Lleulai
McShane
Peacock
Clarkson
Ablett
Sinfield

Hood
Delaney
Griffin
Moore

Be surprised if he plays both McShane & Hood. I think we need to dominate them in the forwards and will start with Sinfield at 6. For this one I would rest Hood as McShane is due an outing and perhaps has a more proven defence and when Ward comes on we will have other options at hooker.

I realise that: Sinfield is 'nailed on' at stand off these days.

It's the team I would have liked to have seen.

hood starting for the 20s so he,ll probs be 1 of the 2 left out of 17

Any scores Bazzos90?

Not as yet, only reading off the rhinos and saints twitter feed though

Cheers mate!!
