Only a fool would make that kind of mistake...

Carmont to miss out. Limping off like he has recently, I don't think he'll last. And the oppo are highly likely to target him. Get him rested and bring him back fully fit.

Im sure Clifford is due today @ some point with the team, but I agree re Carmont.

I'm thinking Carmont might miss out and thats why Walker has been included.

I went to the dinner the other night at Haigh Hall with Maguire and Wane the guest speakers and they hinted that Feka would be playing and that we'll see more young players making their debuts pretty soon(maybe they mean Sheffield though).

On the subject of young players I asked the question to both Maguire and Wane which of the young players from our u21 set up did they have the highest hopes for. They mentioned 4 or 5 but the player Shaun Wane mentioned 2 or 3 times was Steffan Marsh. They seemed pretty excited about that lads quality.

I wonder if Carmont wasn't to play today it would add more smoke to the fire that Shenton may be a target for us.

they aint the only ones.

all this talk about shenton and we have a player who will be better than him in Marsh IMO

Its been going around for some time and makes sense on every level.

Already we are seeing Carmont struggle with injury, that situation will surely only be worse in another 12 months. I really think this season will be his last.

It would mean he is rested due to the fact he is still carrying a knock. As i have said further up the thread i would rest him against Salford and Sheffield make sure he is right for the Quins and Hudderfield games. I would also give Mossop a week off as he was looking a little lethargic at times on Monday and no point burning the lad out when we have cover for him.
