This team should be picked vs Bradford.

1. L Smith (Solid, Can take high balls, Helps the forwards when tired and is a great goal kicker)
2. Riley (Has more pace than Owen, try scoring ability and willing to take drives in the our own half makes a fair few meter's, only problem is morale is down which leads to errors)
3. Lyne (Arundel shows nothing in attack, Lyne Holds more Pace and Strength)
4. Tupou
5. Johnstone (Feel that he holds more ability than Owen)
6. Miller (Been excellent since B Smith came to the club)
7. T Smith (Feel that he had the best game of his season against Salford feel like if we get behind him he can only improve i.e his kicking game and slowness at times)
8. Scruton (Has a big engine which means he can last a fair bit of time in a game, Strong Runner, Defence can lack sometimes but overall a good forward)
9. Moore (Played an average game, Needs to stop scooting when we are on momentum stops the quickness of the attack as another forward steps in the ruck)
10. Anderson (Same as Scruton really but needs to work his tackling game as he cant be getting pushed off by a winger)
11. Ashurst (Just a good second row who gives it all)
12. Molloy (Had a blinder last game defence and attack gives it 110% everytime!)
13. Washbrook (Gives it his all every game no matter what)

Bench (The players I have chosen on the bench are all players which can make an impact everytime they come on)

14. Godniet
15. Mullally
16. Lauitiuti
17. Simon

Oh Chissett. What have you done! What have you done!

You know the next one won't miss it

I'm not a massive Owen fan but he was right in front of me when he made the big tackle on BJB and I was very impressed.
He's done enough to make me think he should keep his place.
I understand the point about Johnstone. I like his attack but Smith seems to have gone off him after the Hull KR game so he clearly has some things to work on. We really need his speed though. I think I'd play him against Hull KR just to track Dixon.

If I had to drop a hooker to accommodate Godinet it would be Moore. He brings a lot to the defence in the middle but he makes some poor decisions too.
And Walker had a great game against Salford so I wouldn't drop him either. I think I'd leave Ali out for now. (much as I love him) and go with the more structured team.

well well well Mr Wayo

I have just seen Bradford getting 8 start. I agree with your comments, this has got to be the bet of the season

Ben Thaler is the ref.

Only reason why I feel owen should miss this is because just to give him an extra week to get him fully ready I felt he was targeted alot by the opposition due to the time he has missed also I feel that Tupou's experience could help get Johnstone over easy.

I agree with what you are saying but Moore and Sio had lacklustre games for me there was far too much dummy half runs by our hookers which left us with slow play the balls due to forwards jumping in trying to get the ball way and some occasions it led to errors for example Scruton knocking on.

The final part I completely agree with.

Put simply, this is one of our most important games in years.
No place for a moaner and groaner. We need to give full support to the 17 selected and become the 18th man for the team.
Let's just get behind and bring them home with a wet sail and 2 valuable Middle 8 points.
UP THE TRIN.

This. Get as many down to the game as possible it's essential that it feels like a home game for Trinity! I've managed to get 7 down with tickets already booked and paid for. One extra supporter for every regular will make all the difference.

I'm desperate for us to win this one it's almost worth more than just 2 points with it being one of only 3 home games.

Give us a shout for me and wife,we are on hols in ibiza try and find a bar to show the game,come on Trin,let's smash Bulls and get the pride back into the badge ........soz,holiday mode

No ALI or Godinet = No Class , No Jowitt , Crowther , Johnston = no Pride

Are those 3 the only ones with pride?

I'm sure that's what people thought about the Salford game an all. Don't think this group has what it takes to roll their sleeves up for the full 80 despite treating the regular season as a pre season.

They will have to roll their sleeves up for the full 80. two points are a must.

It's slightly debatable.

Pride to play for the club, no doubt, maybe you could chuck Annakin in there too. A few more may have professional pride such as Washbrook but after this seasons exploits the majority have shown they have neither.
