Is Manu injured?

tbh m8 i forget about him cant believe i forget a player in manu but i did but actually looking at the team i put out could he be rested to allow players like turner ect getting game time

according to humberside sport bullitin, no obst and gleeson a doubt

injuries or a tactical thing with Obst?

hasn't recoverd from side strain against salford

He had a slight injury against Salford didn't he? Maybe a precaution to not play him against Widnes?

westerman and horne in the halves then. thought joe did well in that role last week

Means no kicking game to speak of though.

tbf i still think hornes' short kicking game is top notch

long kicking game leave to houghton, seems to find the gaps better

Phelps

did you see his short kick against salford?

Obst could be out next week as well, not clear yet, Yeamo fine and Gleeson having late fitness test.

Wouldn't pick Gleeson then. If he's not 100% then he shouldn't play and get him fit for next week, Turner is a more than adequate replacement, especially at that level. It's games like this that Danny Nicklas would have had his chance to show what he can do, shame really.
