I quite fancy getting Burke in at loose forward. He's an excellent prospect and should add some freshness to the pack.

Quote: Cherry.Pie "He's equally as capable in both positions, but he's our first choice fullback and has played his best rugby there. He's certainly more of a fullback than Hampshire is.'"


I'm not saying he isn't a capable fullback, I'm saying his best position (in my opinion) is stand off. Our attack is too predictable so any decent teams can mark him out of the game. If he plays stand off he'll have chance to do something with the ball rather than be a sitting duck waiting to get smashed.

Quote: Cherry_Warrior "Can't believe no one has put Taylor starting instead of Flower.

Also can't believe Burke isn't in at loose forward.'"


I think Taylor gives good impact off the bench [more than Mossop or Crosby would anyway] which we desperately need (especially when L.Tomkins comes on...)

Also it was mentioned on here Burke had a death in the family, not sure whether he will be in the squad.

Good debate going on here.
My overriding thought here is that if we do the same as we do every time O'Loughlin is out we will get the same result. Defeat.
We need to change the team around now in order to find a way to win again and for me that means get your best attacking players on the ball more, even if we sacrifice a little defensive steel because of it. Lets go for it rather than just sticking another defender in there and limping out of the competition.

do you think he will play A. Powell or will he be sat out now till next season so he can get more experience in the first team?? really liked the look of him for the past few games when he's played, great try against Hull.

Wane says Thornley is on a drip in hospital with gastroenteritis and Goulding suffered concussion again. Goulding shouldn't play and Thornley highly doubtful.

So Gelling and ? At centre. An interesting possibility is playing Green at centre, in a recent interview he says he was a utility player in Oz so will have players there before.

If Hughes ends up at 4 then Cudjoe will have a field day.

Anyone think he might go with Farrell at centre, like we did in the second half last week?

I'd imagine Gelling would be over that side, staking a claim for the spot for the rest of the playoffs.

Rhodri Lloyd at 3? He played there with London.

A bit out there but I'd go:
RW 34 Burgess
RC 22 Gelling
LC 2 Charnley
LW 5 Richards

Charnley played centre when we loaned him to Hull KR in '10 and Burgess has looked great in the two games he's had, plus he's been tearing it up in the under 19s. Having said all that I'm sure Wane will play Hughes, who I really don't rate as a centre. Another option is Burgess straight in at centre, pretty sure he's played there for the 19s. If nowt else that backline has a hell of a lot of size (bar Charnley) and pace (bar Richards). Plus they all know their way over the line, which Goulding and Thornley aren't known for

Real problem with both centres out. Gelling will come in though Hughes at centre is not a good option. He's hardly played there this year. Maybe he'll put Pat at centre, he went there early 2nd half v Leeds for some reason.
My biggest worry is the pack and the "gameplan".
When we have Faz Tuson and H in the back three we get over run. They are not big enough. Hudds have some big men in their pack and we have to counter that.
Hope beyond hope is that we start an offloading game as Wire do, take them on up the middle, draw the big men in then offload and spin it out wide. Wire have run Hudds ragged with those tactics for years. We should try the same. Will we? No loving chance!
Same old, same old. Same old gameplan will mean same old result.
