As opposed to which other prop doing anything special
We got halves to do "special"

came in for griffin and i know which id play in my first team!

With the way NB has been tinkering with the team, they all should have been busying a gut to stay in the side, and who are we to say they wern't.
I can only thnk of a couple of instances in that game where an individual did anything special, so to single him out again, smacks of you having an agenda, thats all?
It was his 1st game of the season, did nothing wrong, came off early 2nd half thinking he may have broke a shin then came back on back end of the 2nd half. I'd be supprised if he is not in against Wakie. With doof out for a bit, and our 2nd rowers playing as props, i'd have him in definately, after all NB gave him the 16 shirt so he must rate him.

| I think Raleigh is going to struggle to get many games. He lacks the power of the likes of Mason,Griffin,O Donnell,Faalogo and Crabtree.
The likes of Horne, Patrick and Kirmond are also ahead of him imo because they offer far more pace and mobility.
He is a sound defencive player but offers little on attack anymore.

as highlighted by Jon Wells on sky half time commentary, which laid the foundations for a try.

| i dont think we will undersestimate Wakey - After cas i dont think Browny and Baloo would let them even attempt to uundersetimate anyone . but the fact is we are miles better than them and it will take something extraordinary for them to beat us - i hope something extraordinary doesn't happen but like Meast said they are a dangerous, wounded animal and have to be appraoced with caution.
I think a few early tries will turn their roars back into little meows though.

| best game against wakey was the 24 - 23 win at theirs when torrens scored with like 2mins left :')
but who ever we switch in the pack will be good enough against wakefield i carnt say i have seen one of our forwards play bad and with the half backs that we will have on show im not sure they will be able to handle us.
wakfield have played leeds and warrington at home and both with not full strength teams and they have musted up 10 points to there name now i think our defence is better than both of theirs plus which ever team we have out is near enough a full strength team i think we have players on par and the reason browny doesnt know his best 17 therefore i see a comfortable win. i dont think players will take it lightly as players in that game will be wanting to prove them selves so they play more regular such as raleigh kirmond simpson etc

| How will Broughy feel playing against his old team though? Will it affect him? If so, maybe leave him out for this one? How would everyone feel about that? You know what NB is like

| Quote: Ginger_Giant "Could be worse we played Wigan & Warrington four times in four weeks last season which was pretty tough going. ATEOTD you've just got to crack on and NB has a big enough and experienced enough squad at his disposable to rotate effectively.
By all accounts Wakefield gave a good account of themselves on Sunday against Leeds, however struggled to convert all the field position and possession they had, similar story to when they played Warrington a few weeks back.
Can’t see the Giant’s taking Wakefield lightly, no disrespect to Wakefield but I can’t see anything other than a Giant’s win by a respectable margin.'"
Ths is the key factor. The players we have are all trying their guts out but at the minute we are lacking a creativeness near the opponents line to convert pressure into points.
I will come expecting a defeat, but hoping for something better. I will however be fairly confident that this team will not roll over and just give you the game like we have done so many times recently.
See you Sunday

Brough always seemed to be affected negatively when we played Cas, in fact he was shocking against them. However against Hull who you'd think he'd hold a bit more of a grudge he was fine.
Either way he will run rings around us if he plays to his potential.
