I was thinking about this a couple of days ago. If Havard and Isa get back for the play offs, what do we do? I think the form of Mago and Nsemba in particular, make you think we maybe just bring one back but in Isa and Havard, you probably have the two naturally fittest forwards in the club (after Faz), so those concerns aren’t really there. I think Havard and Dupree for Shorrocks and Nsemba would probably be the two changes I’d make for a big knock out game (if we had the choice).

If Havard comes back and is fit, then he gets in the match day squad imo

Mago, Dupree, Havard and Powell is as good of a bench as I can remember.

Speaking of Powell, I felt a lot more comfortable with him on the bench Vs what I would have done with Cust in there. I think he's playing a big part in tightening up our defence.

Yes I agree - Smithies can always move to 2nd row if there's an injury mid game.

Minus Isa and Cooper, Powell had to come in, if only for experience. He looks refreshed though but maybe we’re just refreshed as fans. Powell is a punchbag when things go wrong and gets little praise when they go right. It isn’t flashy what he’s doing but it’s effective in this current team.

The good news about last night, apart from winning, was that Smithies and O’Neill got a good rest. They have both been excellent over the last few weeks and having them fresh for the run in will be good.

Agree with all of this except I’d put Nsemba in and take Mago out. I think it gives us a more balanced squad as Smithies and KPP could cover as prop if required.

I was just looking at the SL stats. French is top for try assists, and top for tackle busts too, so he must be doing something right. Plus, 16 tries, of course.

Yes,but isnt a stand off

They came in the cherry and Whites lounge after the game .
Thats one of the reasons I love RL as the players talk to the fans and most are great with the fans.

I won the quiz (surprised me as well)

I know who you are now Jason, you sit next to the bar. I will make a point of coming and having a chat with you at the Castleford game.

Sorry Zig,I am away that weekend (tried to get out of it ).
But next home game ,playoffs will let you know where we are in the cherry & Whites Lounge for sure.
Yes we sit at the table nearest the bar.

Have a good one, see you soon.

Definately have a pint with you Zig.

Cheers,definately will have a pint with you Zig.
