Rest for O'Carroll, McIllorum unlucky but think Smith deserves one last chance.

Please don't change the half backs AGAIN ! Lets have a run of matches with the same two in the middle running things, otherwise we are going round in circles.
How are they supposed to form a half back partnership when we change it every two weeks!
Tommy and Sam will be a great half back pair if we only let them.

I think Noble will bring Smith back into the 17 - I don't think he should, but I think he will do

Noble hasn't announced the squad, i can't see it on the website.

This is why I think Smith needs to play in this game against Salford.

I really think Tommy should be moved to play at Hooker and be used as an impact hooker because he offers far more here, and we look a more dangerous team when he plays there.

Tommy will do a better job as an impact hooker than McIlorum will and Smith on his day can play at lot better at SH than Tommy can. So I think this would be a good game to start with as there wont be many other matches to bring Smith back to apart maybe the CC game v Barrow.

IMO a Smith/Tomkins HB combination is better than a Tomkins/Tommy one because we can use Tommy in the impact hooker role.

It'll be on the RFL's website. He has to announce it by 2pm on Wednesday for a Friday game I think.

There you go.

Your thoughts on Roberts' omission?

he needs both tomkins and smith in the squad for halfback cover,even though i am led to believe that smith is causing lots of problems within the squad.

Its a dificult one, i am wondering if he has an injury given the fact Smith will probably not play again this week so is I would assume a bit of a redundant pick, given what i am hearing from more and more people regards his issues.

Something had to change down that side both Roberts and Bailey have struggled with the defensive structure.

I think had Pryce had more game time I personally would have moved Bailey to the secondrow or dropped him altogether and used Pryce as a centre, but moving him to the centre at this stage could be too much for him.

Tough choice to make and to be honest i am not sure there is a definative answer.

Please don't change the half backs AGAIN Noble

with that squad i think he will be resting eamon- the lad deserves it after the effort hes put in all year!

hock will reak havock off the bench against them, start with feka so we have some go forward in the first 20!

I would start Fielden from the bench as a wake up call/ last chance to buck up before being dropped completely.

If memory serves me right Noble did this last year.
