I can't see why he would put Bridge at FB when Riley was understudy last year, why would he drop down the pecking order and Bridge suddenly become back up fullback.

I would've thought that Riley or even Rhys have more experience than Bridge at FB. All this said, I think as a stand in, he would be dangerous from there, I think he's dangerous from anywhere but when he's spent years finding his position, sort of shedding the utility tag, it wouldn't make sense to shift him for me.

Fullback isn`t a position that you would want to play a player at thats returning from a muscle tear especially a player who isn`t familiar with the position, fullback these days is a fairly testing position to play as you rarely get a breather.

In attack your constantly following the play as a support runner and quite a few of the modern day full backs play as an extra half back, in defence your constantly moving about following the path of the ball, also you get constantly turned round with kicks where you have to chase after the ball then return it with interest.

Nothing against Mickey but not sure what he is providing that Clarke can't. And he always drops in a daft knock-on and/or penalty.

Would prefer to see Mitchell or McCarthy given a chance, which would give us more options in the forwards.

Evans starts on the wing tomorrow.

Really, so what's the backline?

I didn't think Atkins would play, I thought Bridge would be back but not Atkins, part of me wanted him not to be back to have another look at Evans at centre.

My guess.

Yeah that is what I'd guess, although what about Joel?

I'll go with the assumption that both Monas aren't playing, that was the vibe on here right ?

I can't see that myself. That would then mean that Mitchell and McCarthy come in, from last weeks game we only lost Moz (out of the forwards), but we already have cover in Harrsion, so that would be a strange one for me.

NO WAY Blythe on the wing. Atkins can play wing. He sometimes plays wing while he is at centre.

We'll see won't we, I do have a sneak though that they may be missing.

If it's Mitchell & McCarthy time, well, so be it. See what they're made of. I think it's funny these days, you don't really care who plays, we'll probably win regardless. Tomorrow, if we're nobbing 'em, just make Briers turn his top inside out to even up the sides.

Just because of his name, I'd like to see Broomhead get a gig.

Is it my memory or did Blythe play wing at Wakefield last year.

He played Centre against Wakefield at Belle Vue last year & scored a nice try to boot.

I fear we're taking the opposition a bit lightly. The players we've got out there are good enough but our defence often goes to pot when we make wholesale changes, especially in the three-quarters.
