Donlan fullback. Stanton and Mort wingers. Durbin scrum half keep Marsh stand off. Start with Cookson and Hobson props and Watson on the bench to ensure we win with a last minute try.
I,d do the same Good Friday too.'"
Personally, I think Mort is an excellent prospect at full back, but we can't afford to play Donlan at centre, where he is wasted. For me, he is most effective at full back, so we should play him there, with Mort on the wing. (I'll have to stop agreeing with you, or I'll cop some stick!) It's no good us moaning about not having any centres - we chose not to sign any, so we'll just have to get by without them!! |

Well Alan I don,t mind folk havin a go at me cos my view is on an unofficial forum like this everyone who supports our club is entitled to their 4 penneth. We are always going to have differences of opinion.
Regarding Mort he had a shocker against Batley, who didn,t ? But I think that will have done him good. Players know when they haven,t performed and for good players they respond and strive to do better.
Donlan is best at full back and I,m sure NK knows that.
Mort is a young lad who will continue to improve and his goalkicking is something we will need this season. He,s already as good as Stuart Ferguson.
Regarding centres we could start with Rudd and Reay on Friday how could that cost us ?

| If I remember correctly the stats show that not only did Purtill kick so many consecutive goals but also his success % was the highest!
He scored a few tries as well G!!
Chris Johnson was good but didn't kick the ball hard enough and thus caused heart attacks wondering if they would reach or not!! |
