That does ring bell, whether it's still in operation I'm unsure.

I think now it's just a case of taking a cognitive test during the week, whereby you have to beat or at least match your previous score from the beginning of the season. I think?

I'm sure it was used earlier in the season with Deacon (longer than two weeks in his case).

*In fact I was actually told that the accidental hit Deacon got to the head could have been life threatening.

Marsh was a useful fullback at one time. Don't know if he's played there recently.

Richards to FB, Goulding on the wing, easy.

We lose the threat from fullback then.

Roberts for me.

Goulding was all over the show a couple of times defensively yesterday, and we lose the threat of Pat outwide.

We lose the threat from full back whoever goes there, pat can still move to wing in attack.

Like a couple have said, I'd stick Roberts there. Apart from the 2 bombs against Huddersfield (His last game at fullback) I thought he did quite well.

Was Goulding really that bad? He slipped off a couple of tackles early on and misread the very last play when it didn't really matter. He also had a hand in 2 tries and saved a likely try when they had an easy overlap.
Bearing in mind that the player given man of the match kicked woefully and was at fault for two tries it would seem little harsh to criticise Goulding.

i thought goulding played quite well yesterday at centre.

Roberts to FB. That way you only have one swap required.

He mis-reads too much for me. He was hopelessly out of position towards the end of the 1st half, and if it wasn't for a shocking pass from Bradford we'd have gone in level.

Not got a problem with him offensively, I think he's solid enough, but I have absolutely zero confidence in him when anyone attacks down his wing. That said, he was done a slight dis-service by not having Carmont as his Centre.

If you're referring to the incident when Platt threw the ball behind Ah Van who was then dumped into touch it was Goulding who helped avoid a try in that instance rather than being at fault. There was an easy overlap and I think it was Hoffman or Finch who came too far inside but Goulding had to put pressure on Platt, which he did and forced him to rush the pass and a try was avoided. If it's not the same incident then apologies, I can't quite remember the whole of the game.

It's hard to say without having watched the u20's because I've no idea what kind of form Roberts is in. I see he played at 6 at the weekend with Russell at 1. Should we take anything from this? Will Madge have any say on where players play in the 20's with a view to their long term progression or will it all be down to what Fletcher thinks is the best strategy to win the game? What I mean is if Roberts was the reserve fb, and Russell his back up, would they not have played Roberts at 1 with a view to him being so close to getting a first team game there, and presumably nowhere near a game at 6? Or is it more to do with just getting the best team they can out?
