lets wait and see what the score is from the real engine driver of the team shall we before we make 3000 hypothetical team choices and then long isnt inured at all huh

Flippin 'eck a month!!!I thought it was Radders..no mention of Tickle upto now

Thought they had till Friday to name squad for Sunday games. I cant remember now !!

Agree totally.

Stick Hall at 6 and have him defending inside Yeaman, Washy at 7 and Turner on the bench as back up to those 2. (We could always stick Washy at hooker if Berro needs a rest)

If Tickle is out, Burnett direct replacement with Fitz doing the kicking.

Shame for Tickle as it sounded like he had a very good game on Friday.

Good for Burnett to get some game time though.

The squad that plays against York today might give us a clearer indication of the team for Sunday.

Hopfully Long is only out for a couple of games, longer and the team will really start to suffer.

I think he said he wanted to play at stand off or loose forward ive never seen him say he could play at 7, I was really impressed with him for Salford playing in the national league at 13 but he was much more a ball runner, back row type player more in the mould of Fitz if anything, in the modern game depending on the team and the system there is not that much difference between 6 and 13 the positions are becoming less specialst and increasingly becoming just a number on a shirt, he could do a job and has played at stand off at various grades and some think it could be his best position but I would be shocked if he has ever played at he just dosnt have the attributes to be a first reciever in my opinion.

First choice would be Wahsy to 13 and Fitz to 12 although Wasy will be needed for the halves if Long doesn't play.

Washy to six, Horne to 7 if Longs out, Burnett for Tickle if he is out and Moa for Radders if he is out with Dowes starting. Brother is it a hamstring injury or a dead leg?

Sports talk last night made me chuckle when someone emailed in about Houghton playing 7.
