Whilst a win would be “nice” it is not vital and so WP might want to look at who will be here next year.
Then those areas can be addressed over the close season.
Mr Woolf will be doing the same.

It would be nice to show off the Academy by naming the following team
With Kershaw rested
Batchelor injured
Tom Johnstone injured

It would be some statement to be able to field that team

Jowitt (Academy Product)
Murphy (Academy Product)
Croft (Academy Product)
Hall (Academy Product)
Evans (Johnstone)
Lino
Gaskill
Aydin (Academy Product)
Bowes (Academy Product)
Shaw (Academy Product)
Ashurst (Batchelor)
Windrow (Academy Product)
Crowther (Academy Product)

Kay (Academy Product)
Walker
Battye
Butler

I could be wrong but doesn’t the prize money increase the higher up the table you finish.

It does, strongest team for the win for me

Yes same here. Lets not forget dugout gate. They will have the league leaders hub cap ready for the presentation if they win. Lets beat them and then give them a dug out chair as a momento

I hope Croft gets another game as I think he's steadily improved with each appearance this year after his long layoff. He's built up a hell of a physique and is way ahead of the young lad he was when he went out on loans.

Brilliant from Prince Buster........,.........,"give then a dug out chair as a momento"

The reason I left him out is he’s just returned from injury and there’s no need to risk him on a short turnaround when he may be a bit sore etc. Plus it’s an idea opportunity to see Bowes get a extended run.

Kay would be straight in vs Hudds.

That’s not true, why not read the original thread. Plenty doubting after the Toulouse debacle. Opinions are one thing PT but re-writing history is not on. I fully accept what I wrote and stand by it but so did others. Suggest you show fairness to all shades of opinion.

Personally hope your belief in the bloke pays off, I’m not into cutting my nose off to spite my face. Right or wrong what I said at the time was valid and you know it.

Vastly improved player, I’d chose him above Gaskell and Lyne on current form.

I’d love to know the five players currently in front of him, Deary me. He’s better than Gaskell and playing better than Lyne was before injury and Taufu is a winger mainly. On form he’s number 2 to a fair mind.

I would point out that it is difficult to ascertain Croft’s full ability because the recent games have been up against weakened teams which to be fair is the only reason he got into the squad for us. This could also be the argument for the impact Gaskell has seen at centre.

Oh no! Tom Grant ref. Thats put a damper on things

You think Minns is better than Gaskell? Wow.

Anyway, you didn't say 'at the time' you said "Poching can't coach"

What's sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander.
