Hard to say what to do in the backs until Custs timescale is known but obviously someone has to come in for Cartwright. Either Balmforth or Hutchinson. Hopefully Aydin is back as I thought Ashworth and Watts were poor off the bench, be tempted to give Eseh a go regardless.
I thought the same about Watts and ashworth although most seemed to disagree. If we go with those 4 I'd be tempted to start one of them and start with Knight on the bench although personally I wouldn't play Watts as he'll probably get sent off against his former club
We lost all go forward when the starters went off, massive upturn when they came back on. Seem to remember Watts missing tackles and that daft ball steal. Ashworth put in a needless late hit too. Can also see Watts been too up for it against Cas. To be fair losing Cust and Cartwright didn’t help us. Considering Watts hadn’t played a SL game until Friday night he did a job. When you take both Ese ese & Knight off we are naturally going to lose a little go forward. Think we are also missing the work rate of Aydin.
The good thing is we have a coach in Cartwright were anything that is not good enough is not lost on him and will be worked on as we have seen since game 1.
Cas is another test on our journey in that we now face a team that was ranked as a struggler like ourselves at the season start, but we have put some performances together and surprised a fair few. We’ve not gone in as favourites to any game as yet but against Cas we will be seen as favourites.
We’ve managed to get a result at Wakey after the emotions of beating Wigan in the CC, now the test is not taking Cas lightly and doing the job there.
How many times have we seen games we should have won then put in a shocking performance.
Hopefully complacency will not be an issue at all.
its also the fact that even with the most hardened professional the thought of what's coming the following will perhaps weigh heavy on their minds.
