| Quote: kingmonkey "It's finally nice to have a squad (and a decent one at that) to choose from. We have so many injuries at the moment and the only real shortage we have for this weekend is at stand off. Everyone who has come in because of injury has played well.
Credit has to be given to Potter on his recruitment for this season because as of yet everyone has been good.
It's a big call who plays at 6 against Saints. Do you go with a change that causes minimum disruption to the team or a change that is best tactically? As I have mentioned, I would bump Kearney up to 6 and play Sykes at 1.
I will back to the boys to pick up their first points of the season at home but you never know when you're playing Saints.'"
What do you mean by that? So are you confident for a win this Saturday then? |

Yeah I'm quietly confident. If we carry on playing like we have been over the past few weeks I think we could win but knowing Saints they could very well break their bad run against us which they have done before.
I've been looking forward going to watch the Bulls over the past few weeks, can't remember the last time I did! |

To be fair they did play really well against Hull Kr, not giving up & fighting back to get the win. Fair play to ya's. Saints are bound to improve soon though surely. |

The T&A claims Sykes is in line to play at 6 in the absence of Sammut.
Langley is hoping to shrug off his injury in time to play. Elima and Purtell both in the squad. Phil Jospeh drops out.

Now I've seen the 19 man squad.
1 Brett Kearney/ 28 Paul Sykes (dual role)
33 Pryce
2 Purtell
3 Lulia
24 Crookes
1 Kearney/ 28 Sykes (dual role)
6 Jeffries
15 Hargreaves
14 Diskin
16 Manuokafoa
12 Whitehead
26 Bateman
23 Addy
Interchange:
9 L'Estrange
4 Walker
21 Burgess
11 Elima
Regardless of what people want, Bateman won't be going in at LF and Addy at SO. Why mess with the dynamics of a side that is performing well.

I'm liking the idea of playing with 14 on the field Mick, can you do that?  |

Forget the dual role business. Just complicates things and adds little IMO. Let Kearney concentrate on FB. Effectively were playing with one half in attack, with Kearney, addy and the hookers making up for lack of a proper standoff. Sykes is in purely for kicking and to make up numbers in defense. Hopefully this will be a chance for Addy or Bateman to stake a real claim for 13 spot and combined with prop shortage will force Langley to be moved into front row permanently when he returns.

I don't think it complicates things to have Kearney defending at FB but taking on more responsibility in attack.
