No problemo

Gaskell, McGillvary, Cudjoe, Mellor, Murphy, Brough, Brierley, Ikahihifo, Hinchcliffe, Ta'ai, Symonds, Ferguson, Lawrence.

Wakeman, Leeming, Roberts, Clough

Well that selection is a bit of a shock,hope he's got it right.

Good back line
Good halves
Cracking pack

You believe

Hinch a so very predictable no flair acting half was where it all went wrong last time.

Not sure why. Stone has always said Gaskell is his FB until Mamo is fit and Smith missing out is hardly a shocker.

He's obviously not ready to trust Darnell,fair enough,but Hinchcliffe back into dummy half that was the problem last year weren't it or was I missing something.

If you saw the squad Hinchcliffe was always playing at dummy half. Don't judge one team selection and tonight's result, however good or bad, as a measure of how well we'll do or not do this year.

Not a great start 6 nil down, 8 mins gone

Nothing personal at all. I just don't and never will understand so much pessimism and depression before the first game has even kicked off.

Ours is not the most popular forum,just bait looking for another to join in the 'chat'

Depression/pessimism of the fans counts for love all it's up to the coaching staff and players to make us happy on here love all else.

Seems like we have taken control,<cautious head on> but we have loved it up in second half over there before now <end of cautious head>

Fartown taking control of this one - ME SAY YES B
