Is Hodgson the new Griffin, or is it all about pace?: |

I really enjoy long walks especially when they are taken by people I don't like!:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_8082.jpg |

I expect Ellis to be in, but as I understand it, Faraimo won’t be.
As for my team, I haven’t thought about that yet. Here’s a stab
With Ellis playing limited minutes,Bowden still not up to scratch and possibly Fonua to come in on the bench for more game time my opinion is we need another big forward on the bench which should be Masi.
I like Johnstone but not the game for a lightweight bench especially if Walmsley is back'"
Agree with you Bonaire with regards to Masi over Johnstone if Walmsley is back. I really like Johnstone and what he brings to us if Walmsley is back then I'd like to see Masi on the bench to add some size. However Masi has yet to make an appearance so having him on the bench may be more of a gamble than Johnstone. Also with Johnstone it allows Houghton to go in at loose forward for a period if we need to move players around as can put Griffin back at centre in needed for Fonua but Johnstone does give us more options.
Tough decisions for the coaching staff but at least it makes a change been in that position rather than the 17 picking itself as in previous seasons.
I'd probably go with
1. Shaul
2. Ratu
3. Carlos
4. Fonua or Griffin
5. Swift
6. Connor
7. Sneyd
8. Taylor
9. Houghton
10. Sao
11. Jones
12. Griffin or Savelio
13. Savelio or Ellis
14. Bowden
15. Ellis or Fonua
16. Fash
17. Johnstone or Masi

Looks good, other than I'd get Swift to play in the reserves and do some serious speed work. Griffin ran away from him looking for support more than once. |

Had Faraimo been fit I'd have had him in ahead of Swift only other options would be to leave Griffin at centre and put Fonua on the wing in place of Swift or simply replace Swift with Sanderson. |

Indeed, I don't know enough about Sanderson to comment on swapping him in, I just think Saints will take advantage of Swifts positional play and taking the high ball. |

I'm worried, if we ain't sorted our line speed out and continue down the same road as the last few seasons, with our stand offish defence, saints will put plenty of points on us, just hope we can put plenty on them

Saints beat a poor Salford team then nilled by wire.
Injuries , one eye on the world club challenge , getting use to a new coach.
I reckon we will win, even though it will most likely be raining !

Sanderson put a You Tube link on Twitter today with his highlights. I wonder if that is due to not getting a contract

Are people really suggesting replacing Swift with Sanderson?
