I have also heard that Will Gardiner will be in the 17 tomorrow, I assume that means Taylor will miss out.

Not necessarily. It could mean Gardiner in for Lovodua and Taylor in for Brown.

I believe it's Thaler.

Think we will be one of several clubs waiting to see the outcome of the new TV deal before we can complete deals and announce them.

With regard to Clifford there may be better halfbacks out there but his style of play really suited us and for that reason will be very difficult to replace.

decent ref is Thaler but i hate him as the video ref

Is McNamara injured, not in the squad and didn't play for the reserves?



I think we need a second hooker, Houghton much more effective when spelled, do hope Dywer is on the bench.

Got a feeling Hoy won't play. The clubs social media keep mentioning Shaul all week. Hoy has been at the test match on Friday, and at a gig with his Dad tonight.

Went to see The Cult who were at Halifax on Wednesday and Scarborough on Thursday. No gig tonight.

Ahh he must have gone after the cricket....nothing to see here!

No Sutty or Dre. Dre big loss today is imagine Fash go 2nd row with Lane

No Dre?? WTF??

Injured mate

I like him, but he can't string a run of games together.

Sutcliffe similar, seems to play 3 then miss a couple.

With Savelio out, I'd would have Staverley on the bench, as he can play prop or backrow, Can't have Sao and Lane playing 80 minutes, who plays in the back from the bench?

Imagine Fash may have his 2nd stint at second row replacing Sao, who I doubt could do 80 mins

Has Sutcliffe been that bad?



Remember him missing 2 or 3 earlier on in the year with a rib injury and the last few weeks with his knee, but he's played more that he's missed

Sao and Lane capable of full 80’s, but granted giving them a rest at some stage would be ideal

Wonder if Savelio was a late call, seems strange to have our two backrowers out and have our only two other backrowers (except Lane) playing for the reserves.



Could Gardener or Brown do a spell there.

Just looked, this will be the 5th game he has missed, not as bad as I thought. Just seems to get niggles, same at Leeds.

Already underdogs with the bookies, now 2 of our best drop out. So that's Griffin, Savelio; Sutcliffe all missing, Taylor not match fit, and if they are claiming Coote as an absentee we'll have Evans. Lordy.

I doubt it and it would be a big ask for either of them. It would have been a big call but it’s a shame Gardiner isn’t starting because he strengths are way more suited to starting games and than coming off the bench hoping to make an impact

Shaul to hooker, Houghton to backrow?

Have you been hacked by bonaire?

Just trying to lighten the mood
