| Huby is busted up so there'll be no evening of scores and I don't think Miller will be top of their hit list though he does have "form" in this fixture.
Having said that, they know how to be niggly ******s, its part of their game now.
Brough WILL be pushed over the edge, depends on the ref how that pans out..

| The bookies have Trinity as strong favourites for this one 3/10, giving them 6 points on the handicap. Any win will do, dont care if it's golden point or beat them be 20 but, win we must.
With Leeds having found some form, we too have to get our season up and running and hopefully come through unscathed.
3 props down and only 2 weeks into the season

| Cant see how the bookies have us down as strong favorites, its looks like two very evenly matched sides. Home advantage may be worth something but the absence of Huby, Randall and Kirkmond does I think make this a no handicap match in my opinion, anybodies game

Agreed, although Catalan are usually dire away from home which is probably what they are going with.

| I'll be keeping an eye on the head-tests. Cas fans complained that their forwards went down for concussion assessments at 25 mins in with the replacement subs stripped and ready to go on before they hit the deck. They had their 15 minutes, then half-time, and were okay following the assessments, apparently. 8 interchanges became 10.
Other than that, we need a win to get going. I seem to remember we were similarly low on results early on last year, or was is the year before, so I try not to read too much into it. Sides frequently start well and then fade away too.

| More worried with hooking role ,or lack of it. Let us down big time against St.The player with the best sidestep and one of the fastest off the mark is been piayed at fullback. He is wasted there, should be playing hooker. If it is left as it is,it is going to be along season as forwards do not look fit and edge of defence looks very bad.Glad Jowitt not playing as he would be getting slated for it

| Could do with woody coming off the bench for this one ,playing against a pack with some of the steam taken out of them first, seems a lot more affective in that role.
Just got to sort the defence out wide then and we’re good to go .

| Well while Randall is out I would put Hampshire at hooker and dare I say it Jowitt at FB, or another way is BJB at FB, Tupou on wing and Arundel at centre.
It won't happen, but Woody IMO is better coming off the bench.

Although you are right about Wood being better off the bench, I'm not sure that Hampshire would cope with the defensive responsibilities of playing 9, especially as starting hooker.
Like Wood, he would be far better taking advantage of a tiring defence. Therefore, IF he ends up playing 9 for half of the game, he should be the one used off the bench.

| You could go with Jordan Crowther at hooker to start with, he'll certainly tackle .

| Both Ashurst and Horo comfortable at hooker and probably 2 of the best defenders every time they step on the field.
