1. Finn ( if fit) to start at hooker. Kyle Wood to come off bench after 30 mins then he is more effective.
2. Kirmond dropped. He is past it and become a liability giving stupid penalties away.
3. Scott Grix to be captain. He is already the most vocal and can see what's going wrong from his position at full back so give him the authority.
4. Bachelor to come off bench instead of Kirmond but don't leave it until the 2nd half.
5.Walker to be replaced by either Hirst or Annakin. Walker has done OK but they need a chance to show what they can do.
6.Most importantly stop kicking the ball dead. It was the single most important reason why we got hammered by Leeds. A tap from the 25 plus the extra tackle puts most sides under pressure and this rule change is having a big influence on a lot of games.

Yes. I think changes needed but not wholesale changes.

Think Kirmo will get a ban, so would just bring either Batch or Jordy in.

Still not 100% convinced about Walker, so if fit, would bring in Hirst.

I think Tupou is playing quite well, though still has no passing game, and TJ getting little service. Not convinced about Gibson or MCB in defence, how about Finn coning back into the halves, with Miller dropping into the centres. Ive always thought he has the attibutea needed as a centre.

if we want to score points it as to be MAX for grix

I'm with the Grix as Captain Brigade

Reunite Arundel and Johnstone, they worked really well together early last season and with Tupou, Johnstones not getting any quality ball in open play.

The Miller/Williams partnership just isn't controlling the game well enough and we're struggling for points, one thing Leigh will do is score points so we have to have more control and a fluent attacking shape if we're going to outscore them.

I'd forget interchanging the Hooker and leave Wood on to do the job for 80 minutes, he's fit enough. He will tire but a tired natural Hooker will still do a better job than a makeshift one being provided by a player out of position.

Ashurst picks himself and I'd mix up Hadley's defence with Batchelor's line running, even using Batch as a wide running loose forward to rest Sio if needed.

Interchange, Arona strictly as a Front row.

Toss up whether to leave Miller out completely for this one or go with Hirst but I've gone for Millers versatility over Hirst size because this is a must win match.

Thought Sio looked poor and the pack did not have enough grunt with the ruck area dominated by Leeds so Sio would be nowhere near the 17 in my opinion. Arona was one of the best forwards on the pitch against Leeds so should keep the 13 shirt...hopefully we'll go with some real size and fresh legs off the bench...Ashurst can cover dummy half for 15 minute break for Wood.

Salford winning, Hudds getting a point, big game on Thursday

Garry Scofield has said he is going to rip into and motivate our forwards on Radio Yorkshire tomorrow

They need it !

Sio is a wet pitch tackling loose forward.
His skills are limited and on a pitch like Leeds had no value.

Scoffield also said that Finn would be best halfback partner for Miller and get the best out of him.

Can't see him getting a ban I thought he was unlucky getting 10 mins to be honest. But I do agree in dropping him he was back to his usual self, hands on hips and saying nothing when Leeds scored we need a leader on the pitch and he doesn't offer anything a captain should.

Jowitt in for Grix, Finn to starting hooker and Crowther in at loose with Arona propping from the bench. I'm not sure what Sio offers and Walker isn't Super League standard. If Kirmond is to play I'd star himt as you need more impact off the bench.

Wtf game are you watching?
Grix has been top drawer.
Wood has gone well.
Arona is no prop and proved his position is loose.
Walker has had limited game time and Crowther is still learning
Kirmond is on sympathy time, good player 3 years ago but playing 'jabbed up' has done him no favours. He played when he shouldn't have done but squad frailties forced it.
Walker could be a solid squad member and Sio is a dirty rough tough, grimy conditions player.

Agree with the loose bit
