Who would you choose:

McNally / Smith?
Higson / Kay?
Worthington / Armstrong?
Ridyard / Burns?
Acton / Hopkins?
Maitua / Dixon?

Higson before Kay
Worthington before Armstrong
Ridy before burns
Maitua before Dixon

Full back is a tricky one. Smith is better defensively and decent in attack. McNally has looked good since coming back.

I'd imagine Acton and Hoppy will both feature in a couple of games each

It's nice to have the options!

I'd go with that Oggy.

Might start with Hansen as I feel Hock adds more from the bench but that for me is our best 17.

Players like Reynolds and Worthington would be tough to leave out but that is where the coach earns his money making the tough decisions.

McNally has to be full back is attacking skills gives us far more try scoring chances.Worthington is in fine scoring form and is very secure in defence,both to start for me

Tonga has to play for me if he's fit he has the talent to make a difference, and whether Worthington is Toronto bound or not he's the form centre at the moment

With Dawson and Brown joining, I don't think Higson or Kay will be picking or choosing what wing they go on!

Difficult choices - positive in that we do not seem to weaken the team if and when we have to make changes.

Still not convinced that Tonga should be selected - yes he is a talent but seen nothing yet that would make be pick him before Worthington or Smith assuming McNally is at full back.

I don't think Tonga will play in the 8s unless there is injury, Worthington, Armstrong, Dawson and Smith in before him. He's handy back up for a game or so though.

No Tonga - really icon_eek.gif

Other than game time why not, surely he's got the experience and ability to make a difference. Otherwise why the hell did we sign him ??

You'd have to be bonkers not to pick Tonga, his experience alone is worth it. I think he will smash the 8's now he's getting the fitness back.

I think Worthington and Smith are on fire, why fix what isn't broken? How can you pick a player for a high intensity Super League match, who hasn't played all year!

Worthington has been quality all year but we have to fit Dawson and brown In there who are signed up for next year and want super league, worthington wants ch1 so would he do everything in he's power to go up? Who knows!! Same reason I don't pick Tonga! We could be playing with 16 men for 70 minutes a game with he's track record
