Gene Ormsby

I agree, Woody has not been very impressive since he returned. But I think I would leave out Currie because he has been out for a while now ( 4 weeks ?), his defence can be suspect, and Woody has lots of big game experience.

Unfortunately, being a nice bloke is not on his job description. Conversely, knocking six bells out of the opposition, making 10 metres per carry and smashing the opposition ball carriers are very much core activities.

If he wishes to be a very nice bloke he should " get thee to a nunnery"
( as Ted Heath famously said to Margaret Thatcher ).

Mobility in the pack against a big Huddersfield pack is the key, so I'd go with .....

Myler should be nowhere near the 17 on Thursday

I think Ted Heath stole that quote from some guy called Shakespeare. Perhaps nunnery is quite apt because Asotasi plays like a big girl. Thankfully, it appears TS has finally run out of patience.

Believe you me, I was not wearing my primrose and blue tinted spectacles and am totally with you all with regards to his 'performances' for Wire so far.

It was a 'proper' chat of sorts, not just a nod and a wink but what we discussed is between Roy and myself, but he did say he expected Cas to win the CC

I've just read this on Sportinglife.com

"Both clubs have suffered major injury blows on the eve of the game.

Warrington lost centre or stand-off Chris Bridge with a hamstring strain in their last match a fortnight ago and Huddersfield discovered that second rower Simon Grix, whose older brother Scott plays for the Giants, turned an ankle in training this week."

I'm not sure if this means Simon is injured or if it is a bit of a mix up and means Scott! Both brothers are named in the two squads though.

I think the opposite.
