Accepting that we don't see a HUGE shake up (which lets face it we won't) I would go with the beloweven[/i to move to partner Orford in the halves if we are getting hammered and a massive shake up is needed!

With this line up the halves still get more chance to 'gel' with each other and with the hookers.

Whatever team is put out though I would be happy with any result if they came out and played with the enthusiasm that Wigan did on Friday night against Hull KR and scored more than 9 points (which is the disappointing total we've averaged per game so far this year!). They need to start playing for each other.

i'd go along with that tbh. if platt is fit i'd throw him in and move menzies back to 2nd row with sykes dropping out. agree that godwin deserves a shot at starting hooking role.

In League weekly it says Sculthorpe is out for 2 more months. Great signing

I'd go:

Reardon
Halley
Nero
Crookes
Sheriffe
Kearney
Orford
Scruton
Godwin
Lynch
Langley
Whitehead
Menzies

L'Estrange
Worrincy
Donaldson
Hall

Now, an explanation.
I'd freshen things up in the backline, just for experimental purposes if nothing else. Reardon has won GF's and played international football at FB, and Halley is a great winger, and a clinical executor given the half chance, something we look to be lacking out wide thus far. I'd drop Sykes, as he's quite possibly the worst defending centre in SL, give Crookes a game, he most definitely merits it. The halves stay, give them time they'll click.

As for the forwards, I fail to see what Kopzcak gives to the side, sadly. He just doesn't run his weight, and a spell on the sidelines might kick him into gear. Subsuquently, I'd spell Glenn Hall at prop, with the superb Scruton leading the line. Godwin at 9 just to test L'Estrange as an impact hooker. And Donaldson certainly did not deserve to get dropped on Sunday, so he'd walk back in for me.

No matter how he lines the Team up there is one thing for sure, we don't have a Loose Forward in the Team and haven't had since Forshaw left. Brad McKay was the man on that front. If Donaldson is a Loose then play him. If not then maybe we should go with 2 Hookers at the same time and use a bench spot for a fourth Prop and not Worrincy....

19 man squad has been announced and it's the same as the last 2 weeks.

Hopefully Donaldson will come in, preferably for Worrincy.

Macca can't seriously be contemplating keeping Worrincy in the 17 again can he?

I didn't think we'd ever contemplate signing him. I was wrong.

I didn't think we'd contemplate putting him in the side without a massive injury crisis. I was wrong.

I didn't think he'd become a regular. I was wrong.

I'm starting to think he's got some kind of incriminating photos of Macca or Hood.

From what I've heard, Mr. Worrincy is a really nice lad. I'm sure it's true. However, no matter how nice a lad he is, he shouldn't be playing Super League for any side that wants to be in the playoffs.

Worrincey is the new Nathan MacAvoy.

McAvoy was good once (even only if it was the bit where he chipped Harris)
