Blythe and Clark to miss for me. I think in Cumbria (weather and all) it will be a forwards game. So Blythe usually offers utility off the bench, this may not be needed. And Clark misses due to it being a forwards game (may not be fit enough for a proper arm wrestle) so hopefully give him small spells next week against a potentially easier Swinton team.
Although I can see Lowes keeping Blythe on the bench instead of Lumb.

Beer is the root of all my problems, ironically it solves them too Homer
Simpson that is: |

| Quote: CB's dad "Just before Lauaki came off, he was trying to stretch by the post, then as he came off, he attempted a jog along the touchline. If it was a straight forward substitution players don't usually run or jog to the bench. I think its likely he picked up an injury.'"
If he is injured let's hope it's nothing trivial! |

I am hoping lauaki is dropped/rotated rather than injured. Jimmy needs to show that no one can just plod around and expect to get picked this year as that person will be a liability come the qualifiers.

| Did anyone feel that Ferguson's fitness isn't up to scratch yet against Fev? He didn't drive as hard as we saw last season and though he was reasonably ok in defence, he looked knackered by the end of the first half - if you watch the set where we conceded the second try, Fev ran at him all set and by the end he was out on his feet and his sluggishness ultimately conceded the try.
Anyway, what I was getting on to is that he might be better rested |

I wouldn't expect many players to be at full fitness at the beginning of the year. Everything we do will be mainly geared towards the middle 8's and that will include getting the players to as close as peak condition in Aug/Sept. I'm sure the players will be a bit more match fit in a few weeks time.

Big guys struggle on the heavy pitches, he had to do extra minutes because Kavanagh was injured, Lauaki was being Lauaki, and Olbison actually moved to prop at one stage.
Oh, and it was the first game of the season.
I think that's probably enough reasons

Bradford scoring a point a minute. Could be a long day at the office for Whitehaven.
