Wonder if the club are looking to bring in a middle or 2.if these guys are out for a while we are really thin in middle department esp with vangana been out for long period.it may not matter now but ky and caleb doing big stints could come into effect come the end of the season and the playoffs

Is Sam Eseh still at Leeds? That dual reg with Wigan would've come in handy right now.

It certainly would come in handy. Hopefully some loan for a forward can be sorted this week.

We had a good relationship with Hudds last season too so hopefully there’s some prop not getting game time who could be an option for us.

We have Rodwell Uele and Shaw.
Two of them do 60 minutes one does 40.
They still get good rests.

With Pitts at 13 we should still be strong enough.

Missing Hood and Doyle is a bigger miss. They take a lot of the defensive work in the middle.
Someone should spell Harvey....Kay being the obvious one but then who plays half back.
If Max then Booth to Fullzback.

Needs to be well drilled to make all that work.

If Hood’s calf is fine then Kay stay at 6 but if not then as you say Jowitt will have to go to 6 and Booth to fullback.

The back line should be good, the second row forwards should be good too and loose.

Happy for Smith to keep his shirt. Played pretty well vs Batley.

I wonder when Vagana will make his return, he seems to have been out for ages now. It was a wrist injury, wasn't it? Surely he's close because we definitely could use him just to freshen up the props a bit.

I seem to remember a injury update saying Vagana was due back early September, he might just make a couple of games before playoffs start.

Wow, that's some time off he's had to have, I thought I remember it being 3 months but I could be wrong. Does anyone remember what the actual injury was?

Yes he did his thumb and they said 12 weeks or more.

I’m sure it was his wrist but the timeline is about right with him back around or before the playoffs.

Boothroyd in the injury update 3 weeks ago Crowther said he was 6-8 weeks and half way through that. We are at the 6 week mark I believe this weekend so maybe there’s an outside chance for him to play a short stint but I guess we will see with the team.

That was Mc Meeken,
Vagana dislocated his wrist and damaged his ligaments

Doyle has had a rib injury but the club have not put a timeline on his return as yet
