Mick Potter has recruited the players he wants but where will he play them and what style of play will he use.
Some welcomed help in the front row with Hargreaves and the fire of Elima behind but what will be his forward's game plan?
Sibbett adds bulk but how best will Potter use him? And what about Worrincey, can he be effective and how and where.?
What roll willl Hall have in his plans? and can he get Langley up to his full potential.
Will Le'Strange and Godwin continue to rotate as hookers and if so under what cicumstances, and what role will Diskin take?

Raynor, Ainscough, on the wings need supply of ball from inside. Are Walker and Sykes up to the job? Can Crooks come of age?
Where should Potter play Ah Van.
Marc Herbert at 7? or Diskin? with Southernwood as understudy?
And where to play Kearney, Full back or stand off. Awesome at both.

Throw in Addy, Whitehead, Donalaldson, Royston, Finnigan into the mix
Will be interesting to see the style of play Potter decides to use next year

And that is the question....

In an injury crisis and in the opening rounds of the CC against lower league sides.



He can't be effective anywhere - he's p!sh. I concede he may be a top notch programme seller - lets give him a try.



Hopefully a more effective one than McNamara had him playing.



No. Diskin will start, Le'Strange will be an impact hooker from the bench. Godwin will hopefully be lining up for York City Knights or someone similar.



As for the rest. Ah Van and Walker at centre for me, can Crookes actually stay fit? Kearney at FB but if we cannot get the right man in then he will go in the halves with either Platt, Sykes or Royston at FB IMO.

I think Worrincey will make a very effective water boy.

I'm surprised he's still here but lets give the lad a chance this season before bagging him already. With an off season with a new coach lets hope some of his faults can be rectified.

All Mick Potter has to do, is apply the KISS principle to Worrincy, Maccas idea of all players being able to operate in several different positions caused him problems, he wasn't the only but seemed the worst affected by it through the season. LSH can take a lot of the blame for not rectifying it. Hopefully Potter will make it clear he (LSH) needs to talk to players when things are going wrong with them. It was partly due to him being on his own so to speak, but with another Assistant Coach in place there should better communication to sort out players and on the field issues

Where on earth has that random assessment come from and why do you assume there are on field comm' problems?

Personally I think he's bottom right. A kitten.

This criticism of Worrincy is uncalled for. I'm backing him to have a good season. He's a good natural athlete and has potential if coached right, I think Potter might be able to get the best out of him.

Precisely how often have you seen him play? What has he done to validate your view?

Alternatively, your criticism of the criticism of Worrincy is uncalled for.

That's headhunters view, you don't have to question everything.

It is going to be an interesting season.

Especially when you look at the squad so far as it looks to me that we should have the players to actually have two XIII's. I'd imagine that Potter has a fair idea of who goes in the A team and who'll be in the B team. But as I don't think he's actually physically joined the club yet there's still plenty of time for all players to step up and claim a spot.

Looking forward to 2011

Nor does anyone on here. Bit like you questioning someone else's view of someone else. Forums are clever like that.

With plenty of players to spare, only in the halves do we struggle and I've had to put Kearney and Godwin there out of position in these example teams (and fingers crossed we've got more of them to come).
