not really, you didn't mention wigan/leeds

Strongest possible squad...end of

Thats spot on the forwards have not been on the best form the last two games just as pre season and Cardiff.

Back to basics would be nice. Building pressure while completing sets. Ideally I'd like to think that Solomona and Clarke to miss out this week. If we shape up something like this..

Hogdson
Jo Mo
Bridge
Atkins
Riley/Evans
Briers
Myler
Morley
Mi Mo
Carvell
Landerson
Westwood
Harrison

Pwood
Higham
Grix
Cooper

Harsh on Blythe and Evans/Riley. But as Rob has said we need some continuity in our backline.

Joo Mo and Mi MO

ARGHHHH!!!!
Jo-Mi-Mo

Even though i haven't got a fluffing clue what you're on about, that's the most sense you've made this year

Any Chance of Su Bo joininig Jo Mo and Mi Mo?

Play the best possible 17 available.

I also feel that Harrison best position is in the front row. Whether he starts or comes off the bench is the issue. My 17 would be:

Hodgson
Joel
Bridge
Atkins/Blythe
Riley/Evans
Briers
Myler
Morley
Monas
Carvell
Westwood
Anderson
Grix

Harrison
Wood
Higham
Solomana

Harrison is a strange one, he gives 100% commitment every game but he's not quite big enough yet to be a prop and he doesn't look pacey or mobile enough for the back row.

I think as a club they need to decide on what position Harrison is going to play in the future and give him a training regime to suit that position, if its a back rower then he needs to become slightly leaner and work on his pace but if its a prop then he needs to bulk up and lose a bit of his extra condition.

Might help them catch the bloody ball this week.

agreed...Harrison is a very stange on, he seems like he is playing well again but obviously had a very bad game on fri.
his body type and speed do worry but he offers such much more that goes un-noticed to most! its not just the giving the 100%, workrate, the hard carrys out of yardage but the push support he always offers to the other forwards going to the line, plus can put a hell of a shot on.
and alot of ausy clubs are using a extra prop as a loose now... trust in smith i say.

Tony smith might just be trying to manipulate him into a loose as really he has played it for the last 3 seasons, and has 4 more left. god knows what he could be when the god tony smith himself has had him for that long!

Spot on Rob. He will end up as a prop, but for now?

now, before the doom-mongers/nit-pickers have a go....
I'm a touch (but only a touch) worried about our pack, re it's lack of flair...yes I know we have backs to do that.

Sure, Monaghan M helps guide us round the pitch, and Solomona (when he's on) has great hands, but we lack a guy who plays the majority of the 80 mins with any real guile/ball handling. It's more a (very good) workmanlike pack, than anything easy on the eye.

Maybe, when we're looking at the next batch of signings, we look for a ball handling 2nd row/loose forward

Complete our sets and keep hold the ball! If we build pressure and are clinical when we get on Crusaders line, instead of trying to score on every play, we'll be fine
