Surprised Rhys Evans is named after his incident last week. We need the brightness of O'Brien & Ratchford to move us around the park.

I'm really suprised that so many people (more than one specifically) are prepared to give Myler another shot. We got away with an anonymous performance from him V Hudds, mainly thanks to a good performance from GOB, a very good one from Monas and a superb one from Harrison.

Mind you some people are going with Big Roy too, so maybe I've missed something. Oh well. I'll go with :

Russell
Ormsby
Atkins
Monas
Evans
Ratch
O'Brien
Hill
Monas
Harrison
Laithwaite
Westwood
Grix

Currie
Wood
Higham
Waterhouse

I would go with
Russell
J Monaghan
Ratchford
Atkins
R Evans
GOB
Myler
Hill
M Monaghan
Harrison
Waterhouse
Westwood
Grix

Subs
Higham
Wood
Currie
Laithwaite

Asotasi has had more than enough chances so Westwood may have to do stints at prop
Wood needs to up his game or England/Ben Evans can have his spot
Ratch is not a half back IMO so Myler and GOB can fight it out for who plays with Bridge when fit,ATM GOB is winning that battle
Waterhouse gets one more week to improve or Currie/Laithwaite should start as last week he was very poor
Not sure what it is about Ormsby but I think he could cost us in a big game

I'd rest anyone who isn't 100% while Bridge is out V Saints, the likes of Trent and Wood who look average.
Do us best v Saints, although I don't advocate we take a fall v Saints, prospects there are daunting at present.
Then focus on beating the Pies and being at full strength for the play offs.

Asotasi and A.N.Other to miss out.

Really? He's one of the best halfbacks we have. Myler's in terrible form, Bridge is injured. GOB & Ratch.

This now play off rugby, all players that are fit need to play and our best possible side must be on the field, why would any player be rested for the play offs when if games go against us we might only have two games left after saints
Win Win Win at all costs from now on.

If Roy plays and doesn't perform I think we can categorically say he never will. Although most already have made that decision anyway!

I have said in other posts I think Ratch is at his best when he plays fullback.i don't think long term he will be the solution at half back.Bridge will play in the halves in the play offs so the next two games are a chance to see who plays there with him.

Sorry to spoil your day Yed but Asotasi in for England according to Sky Sports.

You gave the answer then asked the question!

we have Russell at FB. Ratchford might seem better there than him currently but Russell is an out-and-out fullback and Ratch is a utility player. He deserves a chance to prove himself at HB, especially since him partnered with Bridge led to a 10 game unbeaten run.

I am not saying Ratch should play over Russell at FB. As you said he is a utility player so ATM I would slot him in at centre.He was given the number 6 shirt and the kicking duties and had a good chance and didn't quite make the most of it.If he does play at 6 good luck to him but I remain unconvinced.

I hear Paul Wood and Gene Ormsby will not be selected in the 17 tomorrow.....
That doesn't come from Doc Koukash or Moley either.
