Cheers Sam!

I thought we'd decided, post-the Mark Dunning era, that we weren't going down the DR/Short-term route anymore?

I don't think we ever had 11 players out under Dunning did we
We have both wingers out and Doro,Scurr,Okoro,Baldwinson missing in forwards

Dunning replaced fully fit players with loanees and dual reg.

Slight contrast in the context. Dunning shoehorned in as many loans/dual reg players as possible when our squad wasn't carrying any major injury losses. The way things are going currently with our injury crisis I might bring my boots and play 20 mins off the bench.

Oakes must be injured. I assume that’s why we’ve signed a loan winger.

Corey Johnson not named in the Leeds squad so I assume he’s now back with us.

Moss has a chance this season if he’s recovered from that nasty injury and Gaskell remains injury prone. He was a standout in the Saints system including their reserves last year. Just Saints must have decided he wasn’t quite at the level of Lomax & Dodds and released him.

Johnson is still not in contact training with Leeds, his concussion was a bad one, can’t see him being available

Well if Johnson is out due to concussion then I'd play Moss over Jowitt.

Agreed Bullseye! He did 80 minutes last week. I don't want this rubbish of "we need to be careful with him etc" with the opening set of fixtures we've got we can't ease ourselves into the season.

Moss may or may not be very good but we saw having Lilley and Jowitt was a disaster. We need a half back playing at half back.

Coming through, Jowitt was seen as a natural full back but has become a utility back which may be harming his development. It is telling that last season Jowitt was going to be our starting FB until Walker became available. Then when Walker went, we signed Gaskell so that Holmes could go to FB. Now Holmes is unavailable we loaned in a young FB from Huddersfield. Jowitt's best game in recent memory was that away game at Halifax last year where I think he started on the wing and ended up covering FB?

Yeah I remember he looked alright there. Trouble was that Tom Holmes was so good at fullback that Jowitt was never going to get back in.
