And line up for stains
1 Stevie Wonder to mark the stains runners
2 A doctor to tell Makinson that he's good at catching, but being a good catcher isn't good for your health in St Helens.
3 A poundstretcher team leader to make Dominique Peyroux feel at home.
4 Angela Merkel to help encourage Turner into believing that he's good wherever he plays and his contribution is always valid no matter what position he's in.
5 Promotions officer because no-one's probably heard of /know who the f÷÷k it is.
6 Stephen Hawkins to counteract the speed and vision from whoever saints select at so.
7 Bernard Matthews to farm Luke Walsh in.
8 A sess pit operator to get Walmsley out the sh$t.
9 Boss of Rolex to tell Roby that he's wasting his time at stains.
10 A holiday rep because without one Thompson's going nowhere.
11 A pubic hair to stop Wilkins making any more than his grand total of 5m gained v Salford.
12 A social worker to tell LMS that he's not a drop out and that he shouldn't get upset and fall on the ground if someone says "dropout" because it's not directed at him.
13 My ex misses because anyone can play there.

Where is Rhys Evans?

Based on what I've seen so far this season, and assuming everyone's fit and in form then:-

Russell
Lineham
Ratchford (he should concentrate on being a centre, IMO not good enough for HB and behind Russell and maybe even Johnson at FB)
Atkins (if he can get back to something like his best)
Penny (pace and his infectious enthusiasm outweigh any deficiencies)
Gidley
Sandow
Hill
Clark
Sims
Currie
Westwood
Westerman

Dodds
Cox or Bailey
Hughes
Dwyer

having thought about it, his best opportunity, probably is to force competition at centre, though i'm a believer in keeping the shirt, so i wouldn't drop evans, certainly not for a while unless he has a couple of stinkers, left centre should be up for grabs at the moment and atkins should(already) want to play out of his skin.

Another interesting point, following comments made last year, Penny and russell, starting wing and fullback respectively, when penny has been playing fb pre season (and looks a good fit there) and matty was earmarked for wing last year, thats obviously a tactical decision, a or whether we've now decided to change our style of play to fit the players we've got, rather than the players we had.

Superb post, give this man a coconut!

Can't see how people are leaving Rhys Evans out,he as been very good every game ive seen him in so far,that includes the two pre-season games.

That was my thought

Do you know them all personally?

Well I did spend Valentines Day with them all

Its a great thing to have all the squad fit, as said earlier this may never happen. However, the current team that has been put out has faired very well. What is the point of replacing form players with those coming back from injury? R Evans (admittedly not one of my favs) is going great guns why replace him with Ratchford or Atkins who's last form was questionable to say the least.

Others say put Ratch at 1 move Russell to the wing and drop Penny. Lots of positional changes to accommodate what, average form at best. I'm not going to discuss the forwards. Changes when suspensions or injuries hit and not before. Theres a lot of heads need a wobble here!!

If TS starts to take any notice of this then it is time pack in and move on to Kabaddi, jeez.

I've got an inkling that TS will spend about as much time searching through this forum as he does seeking guidance from Eddie & Stevo
