Really?

Maybe Royce playing mind games and swapping Gaskell and lance but can't see it.

I would of fought lance or lomax would play there before gaskwll

I wouldn't want to fight either of them.

From what I'm told, it was covered and was kept soft yesterday in freezing conditions.

Great work by London.

Child psychology!! I told you so

Gaskell to full back is an interesting idea, and one that could prove to be highly succesful, particualry if he is allowed to chme into the line wityh his kicking game. This may mean that he defends at full back, but exchanges with Hohaia in attack. Worth considering.

Ade Gardner on the bench. That's a bit left field! Unless he isn't match fit yet.

Shame that Makinson is on the wing and not at fullback. I can see a bit of dropped ball from Hohaia there. But maybe Royce is thinking that his experience against the Aussies in the opposition team might be helpful?

IIRC didn't gaskell play fullback in an academy Grand Final v Wigan? I think he could do a job there but not his strongest position.
