Never suggested wholesale changes!

Warmsley for Greenwood would be fine.


Better to have people competiting for places. Also if you don't rotate now, you fall into the trap of next week being to early, the week after being to big a game to rotate etc etc.

And you just keep playing them.

We had Fozzard, Graham, Fasavalu, Anderson and Cayless. They did not play week in week out, each week one of them took a back seat, which kept the team fresh and fighting for places come the serious end of the year.

There is a misconception driven by trends that you have to be massive to play centre or be a fast second row. It's simply not true and it's the reason why we have little to no craft out in the centre's these days. Good footwork , pace, good hands, and a Rugby brain are whats needed - if you also happen to be built like a tank like Newlove then all the better.

Jordan Hand is making his debut Tommorow.

Didn't no he was in squad wonder who dropped out injuried

Any news on the team yet?

Hope he makes a reasonable fist of it.

Puletua, Gardner and Clough drop out.

I expected Makinson to come in for Gardner, I don't think Brown would bring a back/halfback into the squad if he wasn't going to play them.

These injuried or just rested

Puletua and Clough rested. Gardner had a slight knock but nothing serious so is left our as a precaution.

Not the best news for Cloughy, having missed the beginning of the season.
, I bet he's hankering for game time.

However, Clough is a very known quantity, so I guess Brown wants to experiment against a weakened Wildcat team.

Also, with Clough coming back from injury it may be just a week to put his feet up and ensure his recovery isn't hampered by over playing him?

You seem to be in the know any chance we be seeing Gaskell anytime soon

That would be Gary "The Bicuit" Wheeler you are refering to.
Perhaps that why Wheeler has so many injuries and Goulding has had his fair share.?

Still think TM will be played on the wing.
