Absolutely Seth, agree 100%. Once you start thinking a young lad isn't ready because they lack experience they will never be ready.

Agree 100% with this. That is what he is there for, so when the opportunity comes up, it should be his to go for. We already know Sutcliffe can’t do it in the halfs, so why keep repeating that mistake instead. Plus to be fair to Sutcliffe, he has just moved back into the forwards, and tried hard to cement that, moving him again helps no one.

Good point on Sutcliffe he's trying to make back row his position and then if he's asked to play 7 a position he's probably never played in life and if he then has a mare he's going to more stick from the fans.

I probably missed the relevant post but why is Myler banned?

I reckon his absence coupled with a good performance will either prove or disprove the doubters about Myler

My personal view is very few players go to France or Australia and come back better players. Myler has been a major let down for Leeds

Tripping v Hull KR last week

Any idea when this happened? The (useless) RFL website usually quotes the time of the incident in the disciplinary report but this time it just states "Tripping (Crookes)"

I think it happened late in 1st half on a kick chase. I remember thinking there was a trip by Myler so that must have been it unless there was another.

Think it was a Cumberland throw type attempt really.

Predicting games this year is a lottery. Normally you'd think FC would rest a few and not be switched on ahead of a CC semi next week v wire. However, I fear Radford will be demanding a big game and win to get some momentum before next week. With ellis back as well, makes me nervous. He's not really a "lets just take it easy today lads" character.

Still hoping to see a team sheet without Taylor,houghton, Connor and a few others. Connor seemed to have strapping above and below the knee last week and was feeling it as soon as final whistle went v London - so I was expecting him not to be named.

I will arrive more in hope than expectation for another round of SL roller coaster

Smith and lui in the halves apparently. yep, Agar and sinfield are the real brains trust....

Its Sutcliffe in halfs, even worse. When will we learn.

What a surprise.

Says to me they dont like look of mclelland at all.

Says to me we don’t learn.

Or just that same tendency of coaches to play safe even when 'safe' is actually useless.

Indeed. See FC have full strength team out.....
