So who is going to miss out ?

I am going to guess that TS will put Ratchford back at FB and drop Russell, even though he did have a good game last week. That leaves a centre spot for Wheeler or King and I really don't wan't to guess what he will do on that one.

I cant see him dropping Russell and putting Ratchford back in at FB

Matty R. has been outstanding. He's just the spark we've needed. No chance of him being moved from Full Back.

Perhaps he will play Matty. Whatever the side it looks like a difficult choice this week.

Apologies caretaker, i didn't see your post on the squad.

The problem with Russell is that he can't pass. As we use our loose as a third prop it's essential that we have a ball handling full back, which is ratchford and not Russell.

Wheeler limped off the field on Sunday so might not be 100%. Russell has been terrific in the last two games and deserves his shirt so Ratchford back to centre.

Just a thought; why don't we fit our tactics to the players instead of the players to the tactics?

No point in pretending Russell is Brett Hodgson.

Seriously? ***HEAD SHAKES***

Unfortunately yes, with about 15 minutes to go. Was still hobbling after the game but It can't be that serious?

....so he'll be back in 2 months?
To be honest, I didn't see him limping but he did look a little tubby and not match fit.

I'd be very tempted to rest Ratchford giving we have bodies back. He looks like a week off would do him no harm. It's a tough call v Saints but we have enough back to best the gypsies. Squad rotation is now a luxury.

I agree a week off would be good. He went off for bit at wakefield looked like he'd done something? Came back on tho so maybe not that bad or was it he had to come back on?

Russell just has to play, his kick returns and scoots are invaluable. I think he can do that job from the wing, and it takes out the weakest aspect of his game - passing, but still plays to his strengths. So Ratch Full Back, King Centre, & Russell wing for me. If Smith wants to keep Russell where he is then Ratch to centre.

England, Currie & Sims coming back really improves the look of the pack.
