| He just tweeted a picture of his new red hair with the caption 'crazy haircut for debut' I'm not exactly sure what debut he is referring too? Has anyone heard anything about him being picked for Saints? Or am I reading too much into this 
On another note it will be quite comical to see the whole team together on sunday, their hair really is a bright red! |

I have heard a very loud whisper  that Stevie Ward will make his first team debut from the bench on sunday.I believe that he will play in the halves either 6 or 7 when he comes on
IMO you have to applaud Brian Mac for giving our promising juniors a shot in the first team and regardless of who the opposition is, some coaches would not risk giving a young kid his debut away to Saints.

Interesting, I'd assume that means there is no place for Hood on the bench then as carrying Ward and Hood would surely make us too lightweight. I'm very excited about this kid though, if he impresses there could be some serious selection headaches ahead

I hope this is true. I like the look of the kid and would like to see him slowly integrated into the team over the course of the season. If the game is close though don't expect to see him on Sunday.

Can wait to see Ward in the first team - the kid has much potential as I've ever seen in a youngster.

It's not really a game that we can expect to be cruising in the last 10-15 minutes, or that we can risk playing with 16 men otherwise. So for me, if he's on the bench, he'll get game time. |

It's happened this season already with McShane and to a lesser extent Hood, against Cas. |

I know. At Cas we could reasonably expect to have the opportunity to bring Hood on at some point. We're a much stronger team than Cas, it was a good opportunity. As it turned out we couldn't bring him on until 5 minutes from the end as they were still in the game. The McShane example was different as in game circumstances dictated that he didn't come on.
In a game against Saints you don't voluntarily reduce yourself to 16 men. |

| I have been quick to complain....I need to be just as quick to praise if this is true.
It does seem Ward will take Hood's place.
Looking forward to seeing Ward, Hood and Singleton (& Chisholm maybe) commanding starting spots by the end of the season at the latest. Exciting times ....Hull can have Ellis.... No has beens for the Rhinos. |

I'm not sure they'll be 'commanding' a first team place (Hood might be), but I'm sure all 3 of them will have had a decent taster ready for more games next season.
