Oh I agree he deserves a chance but IMO his performace levels have been steadily dropping over recent weeks which might go against him getting given that chance.

I disagree that his performance levels have been 'steadily dropping'. He had one or two brilliant games earlier in the season and maybe hasn't hit those heights for a while, but he's been consistently good overall with the exception of a couple of games.

With those games falling in the last month or so, to the point he actually had a poor game against Bradford. He is usually Mr Consistency but he has been below his own high levels recently.

I didn't go to Odsal, so I'll have to take your word for that. He does have the odd bad game like anyone else, I suppose. He'll come good again before the season is out, and I reckon he's still in with a shout for POTY. I also think a change to a more pivotal position would do him the world of good.

I hope to god that Calders is not in on Sat, watched him in under 20,s last week and IMO needs a few more games to get back on track before he goes into 1st team......was very rusty in defence and allowed every ball that was kicked to him bounce before he attemped to catch it......understandable that he is rusty in view of the time he has been injured just think this week is a little to early or he may find himself an easy target.

Wakefield not having Obst on the park is a massive bouns for us that is a fact , but cooke and king will have their say i am sure of it

honestly don't think they will now.

We look better in defence when he went there .. For me Berro was targeted by Bradford he missed a lot of one on one tackles I don't think he is 100% fit he didn't put his shoulder in on the tackle ,

Berro should be nowhere near the halves. Washy and Horne. (if Calders come back i'd consider Whiting and Horne)

I would guess Washy and Horne starting at half back and Whiting on the bench so we could potentially mix and match it a bit.

Does Berro make the bench after been hauled off last week?

1 Whiting
2 Calderwood (if not fit then Hall)
3 Turner
4 Yeaman
5 T. Briscoe
6 Horne (if not fit then Washbrook and Berrigan as utility on bench)
7 Tansey

8 Dowes
9 Houghton
10 Cusack
11 Tickle
12 Manu
13 Fitzgibbon

14 Washbrook
15 Burnett
16 Lauaki
17 Radford

I'd only have him there if Horne isn't back.

Suppose it depends how he has responded in training this week. I think he will rotate with Houghton.

No, no, no, no. Would take away everything Tansey brings to the team.

Whiting on the bench for me.
