Your account of not quality is?

| Quote charlie caroli="charlie caroli"Looking at these players and the 7 that are missing, it makes a squad of 28 players, now only 17 can be in the squad at Cas in 2 weeks time meaning 11 of the players mentioned here won't be playing, you can count out Higson and McNally through injury but another 9 will miss out, the question is WHO?Charlie doesn't know.

Well the halfs for starters, even the starting 2 (assuming that is Ridyard and Drinkwater) are relatively unproven at the higher level - and yes I did see the M8s, week in week out over a long season is a different matter, and not convinced of the cover we have.
Centres also, an injury or 2 leaves us limited
End of the day I think we have done well to recruit as we have, I think we have more than enough to stay up and that's all I am looking for this season- anything else is a bonus

| To be fair to Drinkwater, he has had a full season in SL and did ok, inspite of his teams results.

| Don't get this halves thing - Drinkwater, Ridyard, Reynolds, McNally, Hampshire, Stewart and Patterson will cover the season

| Sorry Nozzy, need to learn to read! That's some recovery from Dayne. The coaching staff were talking about him not being fit for the first month of the season, when they were talking about him at Christmas. The bloke is a machine.

You know some people do have tunnel vision.All of a sudden because Hampshire plays a good game at fullback in a friendly he's nailed on for that spot all season. He's a utility back with a personal preference to half back. We have an X Cronulla player whose personal preference is fullback.
I recall no less than 16 players on the sick board last season at one point. I don't see that this season.But agree the centre spot is a concern.

Yes and some quality cover that is. I would like Hampshire to have a run out at HB tomorrow.
Young Drinkwater is a very clever SH.

And to add some context to that level of cover. St.Helens are probably going to be running in SL with 34 year old John Wilkin in the halves, in for the injured Matty Smith.

What the chuff you on about - I never mentioned Hampshire or full back, and apart from a few clips wouldn't have a clue how well he played last week. As it happens he went to Cas last year under their remit of getting game time in the halfs and wasn't deemed good enough there by Powell. I would imagine with the squad numbers that Brown is likely starting FB, which makes the centre position even more vulnerable.
