Without scapegoating, because overall I'm quite pleased with his integration into the side, but, given his performance at Widnes and TS having a virtually full squad to pick from particularly in the backs then if I was Russell I might just be worried about my semi final shirt

| Quote: Fatbelly "I'm assuming & hoping that we didn't get any new injuries last night, so my team for Saturday would be.
Russell
Joel
Grix
Atkins
Evans
Ratch
Bridge
Hill
Higham
England
Trent
Super Ben
Harrison
Michael
Woody
Roy
Laithwaite
I have put Grix in the Centre to shore up our left side defence, Plus this frees up Joel on the wing against Hall.
To miss out GOB, Ben Currie'"
I think starting MMonas is a must with Higham on the bench.

I'm already confused. Glass this, horse that, running here, house there. Am I being punked or are they really that unoriginal?
What does everyone think of Russell? I think Ratch is better defensively but has Russell done that much wrong to lose his shirt? (Bearing in mind I only listened to the Widnes/Wakey games and didn't see his performance).

| for a touch of irony, there's a bar in Bridge Street (StHelens) called Saints. All decked out in red and white. Wouldn't it be great to take it over and rub their noses in it for not winning any silverware for years.
Seems very strange going to Saints for a semi.

I think that you are probably too young to remember Tommy Cooper in his pomp, but, older correspondents might remember his famous " bottle, glass, glass, bottle" routine very funny. Perhaps Tommy was from Saint Helens although I don't remember much about him and horses though ha ha
Russell suffered more than most against Widnes despite a great try saving 'hold up' tackled in the first half and although I like him, I think that the resurgent Michael Monaghan and Myler coming back might give TS a thought about shuffling the team and young Matt might just cop a sit down and a bit of thinking time with Ratchord starting at FB It wouldn't be the first time that TS has made that difficult decision

Sounds like a good idea to me but they'll probably be shut for this exact reason!
How many Rhinos do you think will make the trip?

Tommy would have enjoyed the pub crawl if not the RL. Great comedian but loved a drink a little too much.

| Ben Currie will probably miss out next Saturday. Looked like he injured his knee in the first half. Might have missed it but I don't think he played any part of the second.

| I can see him with ratchford and bridge at half back, higham at hooker and monas and myler on the bench. We did this earlier in the season and when I saw the team I wasn't happy with having both on the bench but it worked really well when all five were on the pitch in the second half. If it's dry on Saturday this could work against Leeds, if we have playmakers all over the pitch and keep moving the ball about I think it will tire out their forwards and could be the difference

I'd start off with solid sets of 6 with big drives targeted at the older Leeds players, with deep kicks to keep them down there end. Then towards the end of the first half, bring on all 5 you mentioned and run them ragged like we did at our place against them.

Think that's what TS will go with, I would quite like Bridge in the middle, but not sure Ratchford is the best option for right centre.
