| Ggaskell brings more than makinson for me and his two best games came against Wigan in the play off moving lance to one doesnt mean he as to change is game in attack Quote: The Yellow Giraffe "Have you seen the difference in our play since Lomax and Hohaia have been together?
Why oh why would you want to disrupt that when we have Makinson who can easily slot in at 1 and has never let anyone down or put a foot wrong in a Saints shirt?'"

Mak's sheer pace coming into the line in the situations Wello been in over the last two weeks would be devastating. I don't know if his support play around the ruck would be as smart as wellos, mind.
I'd also feel a bit better about Makinson under the high ball, rather than gaskell or Hohaia.

| IMO pairing Gaskell and Lomax would probably be an error at this stage, so I'd either go with Gaskell and Lance at half back and put Lomax to 1 or put Makinson to 1.
Makinson to 1 gives the least disruption, Gaskell to half back gives us a better kicking game.

| What are their previous records like? I know Laffranchi was banned a few times in the NRL, so maybe it's worth getting him to plead guilty?
Has Wello ever been banned?

47035_1386433761.gif We can be bold enough to make a stand and do battle for our views and beliefs. But we must strive to be mature enough not to resort to unnecessary personal attacks upon people with opposing views.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_47035.gif |

| I would have no problems with either Gaskell or Makinson in the side. But this is a new team so we should not underestimate the chances of Ashe getting a run at FB as it is his choosen position.
Gaskell and Lomax had wigans number last year so it's not the end of our chances at all if they do play together, but I think the experience at half back has helped take the pressure off.
Lomax can play 1 and still offer the same attacking options that he has done in that position.
So we have 3 options that I think are mostly likely.
Lomax to FB, Gaskell to HB
Makinson to FB
Ashe to FB.
But also Wellens may not get a ban, he has a good discipline record, I've not seen the incident and so he may get away with a letter. I recall the last few years lots of players with poorer discipline records getting letters warning about their tackles rather than bans. So unless there has been an interpretation or there was something really nasty I would expect a letter and a fine.
La Franki, well we have TP coming back in but I would rather keep TP at 2nd row.
I could see La FRanki coping a plea if he did a spear. Clough, LMS, Perry, Megennis to be the four main props.

| Franchise's hit didn't seem to bad at all, yes his legs were over the horizontal but he didn't drop him on his head or bury him? It was clearly onto his shoulder and Blythe got up and played it with no word from the referee.
Briers made the most of Wello's tackle too. It was a silly thing to do but IIRC Wello let go of him. I mean if he can pick Briers up off the floor whilst on his knees then i think he should be in the Strongman series.
TMak surely has to come in at 1 if Wello gets banned, leave the Lance/Lomax partnership alone and don't disrupt it with bringing Gaskell back. TP could come in for Franchise but its a shame as he was getting really into his stride.
Onwards and upwards eh!

| I am astonished that Wellens has been cited considering some of the stuff that went on in that game.
See Morleys 'tackle' on Perry in the lead up to our try when Morley was slow getting back into the line. He basically goes in third man with his forearm to Perry's chin and jolts his head back, but somehow ends up worse off. I imagine if Perry had gone down feigning injury or had been knocked out, we would have heard a lot more about it.
I even paused the moment when I got home to check where he made contact as I saw it as clear as day at the game, and the video confirms it. I couldn't believe Laurel and Hardy didn't mention it in commentary.

| I didn't notice any at the game but when I watched it back I did notice it. I think both are worthy of a ban of I'm being honest. I don't think the was any intention to hurt anyone but they did look dangerous.
They may get away with no bans based on having good records but I'm not holding my breath. These things happen and we just have to adapt.
Makinson to fullback and TP in at prop isn't to bad at all.

| Im surprised they didn't try to take Hohaia down too, the amount of bad tackles he was dishing out on Friday was astonishing!. Can't go anywhere without their legs Lancey boy!

Same for me. I was certain Laffranchi would face a ban as that was a bad tackle. But for the life of me I can't remember what Wello did to attract a ban, other than flap his arms and screem at the ref to a highly embarrassing degree.
