It would be a bit of a kick in the teeth for Crookes to not be picked over a guy who has never played in the centre in his life.
I suspect it will be Platt and Crookes in the centre - and if Platt isn't fit, then Crookes and Whitehead. |

Langley won't play in the second row. He's a loose forward. Need him in the middle of the park. |

really? last week must have a mirage then 
seriously though, having watched u20s highlights now, crookes looks to have bulked up a bit. has decent pace and knows when to use his winger and when to go himself which is an improvement on last year. Still looks a bit suspect in defence but that can be said of most of 1st team squad TBF. Wouldnt mind him getting a run out and seeing how he goes. |

Yeah, sorry, should have been more specific. I was thinking in terms of SL
Don't get me wrong, I'd be interested to see whether Whitehead can cut it - Joel Tomkins style - in the centres. I just think Potter will go for Crookes

Reading between lines on Potters bullseye piece suspect we may see both crookes and whitehead in centres this week tbh. |

Platts not fit and Sibbitt's embarrassing in his normal position.

In that case Whithead to centre, Langley to SR and Bateman to loose with Donaldson on bench.
Sibbit is nowhere near as bad as some make out.

Crookes is a centre.Play him at centre. If it doesn't work then hands up but give the lad chance. Sibbitt is 30 yr old 2nd row who should be in the championship. Bateman to start at LF at 17 in team getting beat up?

I agree
I think this is his opportunity. Hopefully he will step up and prove that he's worth the spot |

Crookes is pants and he'll never make a SL player. Sibbit is a reliable utility man better equiped to handle the likes of Webster or Welham. Bateman to start at LF yes. |
