I dont think that matters as with no half backs i cant see us scoring many tries

I agree with that combo. Goal kicking is an interesting one. Evans has kicked 2 career goals according to Wikipedia. That seems to be more than anyone else though!

So pretty much on a goalkicking par with Steve Crossley then...

When we do score tries there always out on the wing.

From that T&A report I'd say that Chisholm will probably end up playing, albeit he won't be 100%

I’d go with a backline of:

Hitchcox
Evans
Gibson
Webster
Ryan
Pickersgill/Chisholm
Minchella

I wouldn’t want to move Wildie from hooker, too important there.

Looks like it could be one for the forwards Sunday with heavy rain forecast, so we may get away with having no half backs.

Chisholm out - knee.

Hitchcox out - shoulder

Lilley out - suspended

Krasniqi out - pants

Bustin back in along with Foggin Johnson, Gibson and Milton.

Hands up if you can play 6 or 7 and fancy a run out?!?!?

Good to see Bustin in there. Doesn't need to do massive minutes. Just a 10 min spell either side of half time to give us some impact. Crossley and Wood can do long minutes. Wonder if we'll see Webster moved into the pack.

Hitchcox out, Gibson and Milton back in, AND it's going to chuck it down on Sunday? Yeah I think I might give this one a miss

Based on that 19 man swuad I’d go with:

Pickersgill
Ryan
Webster
Evans
Foggin-Johnston
Minchella
Wildie
Crossley
Hallas
Kirk
Garside
Farrell
Milton

Flanagan
Bustin
Wood
Storton

There’s a case to be made for Gibson in the centres and Webster in at SR. Or even Pickersgill in the halves with Wildie and Ryan dropping to fullback, Evans on win with Gibson in centres.

Either way hope the lads give it a good crack and are defensivley solid.

I don't think Webster has a good enough engine anymore to play 2nd row.

I've heard Kobi Green was pulled from the academy game. Maybe he was injured, I dunno, but maybe there's a clue for Sunday?

What is going on with Dalton Grant? Is he injured?

He has been so far as I know but I'm sure I read that he was getting near to being fit again. Not sure he'd be in my team though..

Bring your umbrellas today. Heavy rain forecast from 2pm onwards.

JK needs to get a grip of a few players and their attitude e.g GF

poor last tackle options close to the opposition line, not impressed.

We really are not very good are we?

We were close to their line?

We were awful, never looked like scoring and I’m getting bored of our dull brand of rugby

Well that was bloody awful.

Kear needs to get a grip of things. Teams aren't just going to fold like in L1. His selections are just baffling. Everyone knew it was going to be a mud bath so why the hell did he go with one prop on the bench, who was also coming back from injury, along with a second-rower and a centre.

We keep doing the same basic mistakes EVERY week. Like I said above, we could get away with it in L1. We won't in this league. It needs nipping in the bud. Again constantly kicking dead and not completing sets. Start doing something about it!

Pickersgill. Don't like to single a young lad out but he needs a few games out. His positioning isn't getting any better. Straight away he put us on the back foot. Again a ball bounced inbetween him and his winger. Its happened every game.

Oh and Kear please tell our wingers to drop back on last tackle. Catching the ball on the full and really setup a good set.

So so poor today.

When I saw our team selection I knew it was going to be an uphill struggle to get anything from the game. We could have played until midnight and we still wouldn’t have scored. Some very poor individual errors from some experienced players this afternoon.

On to next week and another tough trip to Mount Pleasant to face the Bulldogs.

A very poor and clueless performance from the Bulls this afternoon. No idea in attack and some serious brain farts in defence.

Some serious questions need to be asked because that's two home games lost in a row, not going to help over come those objections to the ticket prices if there isn't value for money coming from the team.
