Smiths distribution has been very poor. A lot of wayward passes. If HDN are anything to believe it's to build match fitness for Balmforth.

Anyone else notice that Richie hasn't been at the matches recently? He was when he first joined us.

Apparently Grix said in interview that he and Richie used to be good friends. Think they've had a fall out?

Okunbor back but not in the reserves in an odd one for me

Unless Sutcliffe or Carlos are injured he won't start there, probably on the bench at best.

3 forwards out plus potentially Cartwright will see him plsy in the pack again.

just seems a lot more settled in that position plus i would rather see Carlos given a run in the second row a position i think he could make an impact.
You are likely to be correct though and we will see him on the bench

Settled? Only played 1/2 times in that position for Bradford against part time players, think people are getting a bit carried away by him playing ok in the championship.

Indeed. I'd be doing everything to move him on. If he's digging his heels in, make life difficult. He must know he's not earning whatever he's been paid. Most players that take that sort of stance (and to be clear, I'm not saying he is) do it because they know they're not getting another gig as good as the one they've got.

Regardless of any quota rule changes, they should be used as wisely as possible and include as much quality as possible.

You can’t compare any of those to Ock. They’re proven regulars. There’s something else going on with Walker, but the others have been here years and can play.

Refusing to recall someone from Bradford on loan to play back row is not the same as dropping Sao.
