| Repetitive selection madness.
People still naming Okunbor in the starting line ups, most are as bad as clueless tony.
Smith is fixated on his belief he cannot field more than 2 young lads at a time, currently Stavely and Martin. Its this strange stubborness thats holding us back.
We d look alot better with Balmforth and Jebson in there. Rather than continuing with woefully out of form players and square pegs in round holes.
Cannot be bothered to watch while hes in charge, speaks in riddles

| Unless any of the posters on here have any inside knowledge I’d suggest leaving selection to the people being paid to do it.
Despite the expert insights displayed on here, there have to be solid reasons certain players are not getting picked, and those reasons do not have to be explained to anyone other than the players.

Might as well pack the forum up then if only people who are paid by the club can have an opinion on things

| The thing that puzzles me (well one of the things!) is that I'm pretty certain the other week that Smith said that he was after trying out different combinations (think it was when explaining why Hoy was dropped) but I can see Hoy at FB again with Smith and Brown in the halves and Houghton at hooker.

Tinkering Tony in disguise
Appreciate your imput Tony but whats the solid reason you dont pick Balmforth yet are prepared play Houghton on one good leg even though every week you pull him off with a suspected hamstring strain and then use anyone available on the field to slot in at nine despite having two nines at halfback.
I suspect its a cunning plan to confuse the opposition and appreciate you dont have to explain this to fans but may be if you did inform the players of your brainwaves we may see more structure on the pitch rather than seeing a prop or second row forward taking the ball on the the fifth tackle from a makeshift nine

| It's certainly baffling why Houghton gets picked every week and plays till exhaustion yet Balmforth can't even get in the squad?

Please don’t question the ones who are paid to make these decisions

The point I was trying (badly) to make was that, in my opinion, I’m glad the experts on here aren’t in charge.

I don’t know why TS doesn’t pick Balmforth, but I suspect it’s to do with him not being fully fit.
It is only an opinion though and not one I’ll repeat ad nauseam like some on this forum
