I know he has and I agree When I heard he could play prop it brought a smile to my face Just dont know where it leaves us hooker wise. Cant see Riddell playing 30mins hooker then prop

Whatever the side, imo we cant play Bailey and Hansen in the same side - they are just too alike.

When the two are on the pitch together you may as well forget about the ball getting out to the centre because neither look to pass, or have the ability to pass the ball.

My side :-

Phelps
Roberts
Goulding
Gleeson
Ainscough
Tomkins
Lu Lu
Prescott
McClorum
Coley
O Loughlin
Hock
Tomkins

Hansen
Fielden
Feka
Riddell

Noble said, in his video on the Warriors web site, that Paat may be ok for Monday. So he can't be too seriously injured. In any case I thought Phelps had a good game and arguably better on attack that Paat.

But we miss Pat's goalkicking when he's not playing.

Call me crazy but...


S Tomkins
Roberts
Gleeson
Goulding
Ainscough
Phelps
Leuluai
Prescott
Riddell
Coley
J Tomkins
Bailey
O'Loughlin

Feka
Hock
McIlorum
Davies

Phelps & Sam can switch if needed, would like to see how Phelps plays as a Stand Off, Fielden should be dropped and i'd take Joel over Hansen.

Saw that.

If he's fit i'd be tempted to switch Phelps to 6 with Sam Tomkins taking McIlorums place on the bench.

Call me crazy but why not;

1. Vievers (or Paat if fit)
2. Roberts
3. Phelps
4. Carmont
5. Ainscough
6. Gleeson
7. S Tompkins
8. Coley
9. Leuleui
10.Prescott
11. Bailey
12. O'Loughlin
13. J Tompkins
-------------------
14. Hansen
15. Hock
16. Feka
17. McIllurum / Riddell

I think we have to try and keep Phelps in around the middle of the pitch if at all possible.

His best game by far for us(although still a few big errors) so i'd be loathed to move him.

interesting line up but gleeson is a centre. i know he can play stand off but we have been crying out for a class centre for years who can distribute to his winger. would be a waste imo to puthim to stand off when we have sam. would much rather perservere with sam/tommy then move a strike to the middle of the park and leave our wingers starved of possesion like recent years

yeah youve got a point with phelps' defencive frailties at centre. perhaps just swap him and gleese around then at centre and S/o. Would like to see tommy do a full game at hooker tho....and gleeson in the s/o position at some point....actually think they are both players natural positions and often where they have had their best games.

I completely agree, had O'carrol, Preccy or Coley been playing like him recently they would have been dropped. Yet Fielden still gets picks and not only that he is in the starting line up. Coley was playing rubbish so he was dropped for the hull game at the start of the season and i think there has been an improvement - why cant the same be done for Stuart Fielden???

Pat wouldn't have come up with the cut out pass for Ainscough's try.

Swings and roundabouts.
