With the flood water now lapping gently around TS's nether regions, does he stick with his experienced but tired players, or does he introduce some fresh legs from the fringes of the squad ?

I am going for;

Philbin in for Ben Harrison
Harrison is still not fully fit and will be tired. Philbin has made good yardage in his games so far, plus teams have not yet sussed out how dangerous he is close to the line (18 tries for U19's last year).

George King in for Currie
Currie doesn't look a happy bunny, he is struggling to make yardage with the ball in hand and I suspect his morale is low. We will miss his pace, but a fresh King will have no qualms about running at the Wakefield pack (he's a prop or BR), he is a solid defender, and will keep his shape in the defensive sets.

I feel for Currie he's a running back row yet often played out of position, Smith should play him as that maybe from the bench, he's got the talent I would persevere.

Philbin deserves a shot if Harrison needs the game time then again from the bench, I would leave out Roy I don't think he's going to pull out anything from the hat now, could be wrong so give King as much experience as possible.

Is the best we can go with from the current bunch, although it's scary how many of those named above aren't up to scratch.

Bridge, Atkins, penny, myler, o'brien are all not good enough our squad.

Interestingly that 5 of the 7 backs and could easily be why are our attack is so poor.

If we had a fully fit squad id swap penny for russell in a heartbeat.

I would rather have Myler on the pitch than off it.

My thoughts are to stay at home and watch the National on telly.

I'm racking my brains and I think I've seen every single senior player in the first team squad except Hill blamed for our current position.

Well Mr Fishwick my Wife is bringing 3 colleagues fro work. She is not a regular so if you stay at home you'll miss the atmosphere and the crowd will still be 3 up. She's showing some faith, let's hope plenty more do.

There will be a better atmosphere in James Lee House on Saturday.

..and more alcohol.

You can't get in James Lee house until 5pm so you might as well go to the HJ

England got off his discipline grade b from Widnes game,
So will be available ,,

I'm looking forward to it, see if TS has shook them up since the Cas game! Will be having a few in the Rodney first mind, deaden the blow if things go t#ts-up

I'll be listening from Venice whilst waiting to check into my suite.

TBH, I thought you were unlucky to be cited Anthony.... although you did have a bit of a reputation in the Championship.

Was England's incident the one that got put on report against Widnes?
