It will be a very tough game, 6-8 points in it either way.

Me too

Reports (denied by Bradford) of them combining with the football club in a new stadium this morning. (in the Metro freesheets)

Wouldnt have Brett Kearney, Jamie Langley or Olivier Elima then?

Can you explain to me how Langley or Elima are going to get into our back row of Tickle, Manu, Fitzgibbon & Westerman?
As for Kearney, I'd rather have Phelps at FB and Horne at 6, so, no thanks.
Lynch & Diskin are all I would take.

Kearney is a miles better FB than Phelps.

From the squad I'd take lynch, Scruton and Raynor (short term).

Jefferies is average but a better 7 than Obst.

Happy with our hookers.

As you have said Langley and Elima are no better than our current backrow fowards.

They have some very good young fowards playing that i would happily take as replacements fo lauaki or Fitz for next year in Donaldon, Burgess and Whitehead.

Raynor?????????

Currentley still a better winger than Sharp, Lyne or Whiting.

Or not saying I would sign him, but he would get into our current 13.

I thought about Langley and Elima but would take Fitzgibbon over Langley every day of the week. I'd also take Manu, Westerman and Tickle over Elima, I really rate Elima but Manu is better, Tickle is good and has the goal kicking and Westerman is a threat with ball in hand which is important for our blunt attack.

I don't really rate Kearney.

I'm not sure I'd take Raynor, he's a decent player but he isn't worth the trouble he brings. Jefferies isn't better than Obst IMO, I'd suggest Wakefield fans would much rather have Jefferies over Obst.. anyway I was talking about fully fit 17s and would have Long over Jefferies everyday.

would have Raynor back in a flash mate as well

Looks a shadow of the player he was and a bit lardy too imo

forgiven of all sins just for the hit on Tompkins

Phelps over Kearney? come on man wake up. I take it you not seen much of kearney then? hes better than most FBs in superleague. Hodgson, Tomkins are the only ones id put infront of him. Langley and Elima are miles better than westerman and tickle. Tickle... sure he can kick but apart from that nothing special. Langley is more of a battering ram than a LF anyway. Manu i agree with you he is better than both by a long shot. Id sign him up today!!!!!! Bulls also have probably the youngest pack in SL at moment aswell. Whitehead, Olbison Donaldson, Burgess all around 20 years old. Scruton, Hargreaves are mid 20s.

Why are you comparing him to Tickle then? Looking at the stats, which although isn't perfect is probably the most accurate gauge assuming no of us watch Hull and Bradford every week, I'd take Tickle over Elima and Langley - only downside to Tickle is a disappointing amount of missed tackles. Westerman also comes up pretty well against Elima; superleague.co.uk/statistics_pla ... eason=2011 .
