I would put Izaac Farrell and Brierley in against Swinton, I like Farrell when I saw him against Bradford in the friendly and thought then that he should be worth a place this season. He is a good up and coming half back.

The 19s are struggling with injuries, not sure we will see izaac as they have a game against cas on sat

you would think it will be brierley and gaskell at half back for cup game

gaskell went off for head assessment during wire game, he came back on but not sure if it was within the 15mins..they have to miss next game if over 15mins?

l was not being negative, nor do l think we will go down, posters are calling for certain players to be got rid of, l was simply stating its not that simple. we do have some average players on unusually long contracts? and l doubt those kind of players will want to leave, in fact l,m pretty sure they won,t want to leave. If you really don,t want a player, then you have to do a deal with him, his agent, or buy him out. if you think we need wholesale changes, the fastest, cheapest, and easiest way is relegation.
Personelly l think Stone, and the players will turn it around, and we will make the 8, but we certainly need more grunt up front, and the backs need settleing, only 2, 3, and 6 seem assured. l think Mamo will get 1, and McIntosh 5 but not sure, 4,7,??, and Breirley?, another long contract that doesn,t seem to fit.

Banned for 1 match. Failing to control his language is starting to get tedious!

Yep- it certainly is!
