Yeah, with 16 men, even Ryan Hall might be tempted to plug his own gap on the wing.

That came on suddenly!

I was going to say something similar but you got in there before me

Smith and Moore out, BJB and Kirke in otherwise same squad as last week, Kirke must be in because of his big game experience

Indeed. He should take lessons from the world's best full back on how to smash an opposing winger into touch.

You should look up the defination on "creative" nanty....

Burrows "ducking" was the most creative part of the first half & his run for Hall's 2nd half try seems to fit the bill, but you stretch whatever you want nanty

You need to get out more

Thanks for the reply, I have managed to source a ticket for the SS now. All the best for Friday.

Having now seen the 19 man squad i think Brian Mc is rewarding as near to the GF team as possible for this fixture with Griffin taking Buderus' spot in the 17 and Watkins getting the nod at RC but taking Ali's spot.
Webb
Bjb
Watkins
Hardaker
Hall
Sinfield
Mcguire
Bailey
Burrow
Peacock
Jjb
Delaney
Ablett

Clarkson
Leulaui
Kirke
Griffin

Hauraki and Mcshane to miss out.

You're probably right.....and how sad that would be to see the return of Kirke.

For me Burrow has to start on the bench and come on around 30 mins to be effective. However I think Mac has shot himself in the foot here with the game time he has given McShane. 10 mins from the bench out of two games is not good prep for the lad on what is the biggest match of his career by a long shot.
I'd like to see Bailey on the bench and Leeds to come out with more grunt with either Kylie or Griffin lining up alongside JP. Get running hard, take the gas out of them, then introduce Burrow on the 30th.

That's a shame: www1.skysports.com/rugby-league/ ... picy-feast Burrow admitted there will be plenty of banter between the teams out on the field but, despite the intense rivalry between the two nations, he insists that there is no real hostility amongst the players. "There's no malice," he added. "It's all good." And here was me looking forward to some good old blood and thunder.......
