| For what it’s worth, I reckon we will be lining up:
Golding; Briscoe Watkins Handley Hall; Moon Myler; Mullally Parcell Singleton; Ablett Ward; JJB. Dwyer Cuthbertson & 2 of Delaney/Oledzki/Smith/Walters

| with all due respect, I think now is a good time to be playing Leeds at their gaff.
they are in good form, but have had a couple of close games recently that you'd normally have expected them to have walked and are still bringing back a few bods who will be a little rusty too.

And the stadium is half finished which may mean the ref will make the decisions rather than the South Stand.
No reason for us not to go close tomorrow.

That’s how I’d go, Marshall not up against Hall. Escare to 7 Powell to 9 when TL needs a break.

| Marshall not up against Hall, just up against Watkins, though. However you slice it...

| Marshall can throw plenty at Hall as well so I wouldn’t be interested in trying to shield him. It’s up to the team to play well enough to not leave him isolated in defence and in attack to try and work him some space. If he gets that he can burn Hall for pace.
Good challenge for the lad.

Problem is, if he plays on the right he won't get protected by Sarge, and he won't have the space he has on the left. When Davies plays on the right he gets about half the chances the left winger gets.

| So is Marshall suddenly a defensive liability? If he's good enough, he's good enough. We need wingers who can attack and deal with all oncoming threats. Don't want a winger who needs shielding or protecting. Not when we have the likes of Burgess Davies and (hopefully) Manfredi.

Liability might be OTT, but I'd feel very nervy if Marshall was trying to stop Hall from 5m out or out-jump him for a high ball. Hall is world class on his day after all, one of very few SL players I would say that about. On the other hand, I can see grubber kicks behind Hall paying dividends, as Marshall looks much faster over 20-30 metres.

| Which winger or player at any level doesn't struggle to stop Hall from 5m out?

He's a challenge for anyone, but there are quite a few others I'd give a better chance than Marshall. Defence needs to slide effectively, and blockers get in there early to disrupt his run up for high balls.

If you are so scared of Marshall on the right wing put Sarge there and Bateman to centre.
