I look at that team and wonder why we can't get a win anywhere surely we should be competitive at the lower end of the table.

Has Arona played 13 at all over the last 2 years?

I noticed that Hall and Taufua swapped places for a period in the HKR match, wondered if they were doing it to orders, or just covering for each other.Think Kersh went well in Cas second team match, could he come into the reckoning.Perhaps Murphy and Hall on left,Taufua and Kershaw on right.Also wondering if Evans has any FB experience.Just throwing up possible combinations for discussion.

No mention of Gaskill in anyones team choices

I'd rather have Batch in the pack. His work rate is immense.
And Croft is starting to get into it.
The try on his side was actually after he came off and was a missed tackle from Batch.

Tanginoa either prop or bench SR for me.

I love the way people want a bit of tinkering to the 'team,' like put him to loose, him off the bench etc,etc, like it makes any difference to us winning or losing?! They are all much of a muchness, that's the whole point of why we are in this mess. Out of about 25-30 players, at their very best, we have (had) about 4 or 5 very good players, the rest are just average, with some of them Championship standard. The table doesn't lie, yes we have had injuries to the better players at various times, but Hull, Salford, Leeds, HKR have had worse runs of injuries this season. Having said all that, we have had about 7 or 8 games where we have been in front, level, or just 1 score behind at half-time, and won none of them, that's without the 5 we have actually won!! Most of the 2nd half performances have been pretty dire.

Given the Shaul signing it looks like we're stuck with Miller in the halves again as he's always selected regardless of form.

It would be nice to see Walker and Bowes have an extended run in the team and I'd like to see more of Evans who IMO was unfortunate to be omitted.

I still laugh at the people who suggested Gaskell could play loose!

Probably the odd game but that doesn’t change the fact that he’s a better 13 than a front row and when he’s at 13 we look a better team

It seems a while since we had Ben down at Belle Vue
Super League

Wakefield Trinity v St Helens

24th July, KO: 15:00

M Com: A. Brown
Referee: B. Thaler
Reserve Referee: M. Mannifield
Touch Judge 1: J. Smith
Touch Judge 2: C. Kendall
In Goal: P. Brooke
In Goal 2: G. Jones
Time Keeper: A. Mills

We might have the best referee in super league on Sunday, just hope he doesn't need to rely on either of the two touch judges.

Especially after last week with that HKR penalty that never found touch!

He'll huff and he'll puff and he'll blow his house down

I'll get my coat......
