What is Broughton better at than Murphy?
He has more speed that's it!
Murphy is the full package bar the 100 metre tries.
First name on the team sheet for me.

As mentioned a hundred times before we don't play a game that suits Broughton. Play to our strengths and its Murphy every day of the week for me. Great player.

You Knew what thread it was when you contributed to it on the previous page.

This must be the first time I have agreed with Fartown and praising a player!!! Let's get behind the lads on Friday a must win.

don't think any of our backs are particularly bad players, they all do a job, they all have different strengths and weaknesses as do any player in any sport.
yes they all make mistakes at times, but for me Jerry and Murphy are 2 of the most consistent performers, both different types of players, both with good strength, Murphy possibly a better defender,Jerry a better attacker, Broughton is a very good player and doesn't let us down when he plays, he is unfortunate that he has 2 consistently good performers in front of him.

for me though, Jerry and Murph would be the 2 of the first names on my team sheet.

I'll be looking for some more of what we did in the first 20 minutes against Wigan. If we can get on the outside of them, we can do the same against Catalan.
They are a tough, roughhousing sort of side and Henderson will be out to wind everyone up , We weathered all that in France, so we know exactly what to expect.

We may have lost last week but there were some good signs in that performance, Don't know if Carney is back or not, If he is, he is the danger man. We need to win this game to stop the doubts creeping in, Need Eorl and Huby on for as long as they can do.

think carney is back, didnt he play for them v saints last time out?

yeh crabtree and huby can do the big mins and also with lawrence in the middle we are rock solid, kopczak does well in his stints... smith has been only steady so far, want to see more from leeming this time and less brainfart moments from robinson

we seem to drop off midway through the first half when the rotating starts don't we?
obviously that's the way baloo wants to go, i'm wondering whether to keep Huby and Eorl on the bench, maybe they will add or the keep the momentum up?

Pomeroy will miss this one.

Yeah what was it Pomeroy did in that match, I remember thinking he was very unlucky to get sent off. But then with Silverwood nothing really surprises me, Hope we get Thaler this week.

It was a red card every day of the week.

But it's not.

J.Child to ref, was hoping we'd seen the last of him this year !!

Agreed. Possibly only one on the bench. I'd risk starting Smith.
Ta'ai to be benched for me.

Well it was a red that day of the week, As jools implies it isn't always.

I had another look at the tackle, the shoulder bit looked accidental to me, I thought he was just putting in a hard tackle, but I can see how others would see it differently.

Good job these ref's weren't about in Garry Seniors day, He would never have got a full game in, That lad knew how to hit em.
