He won't be as fit as he was as i don't think he's played a full game for 2 seasons.
as you say playing longer makes you fitter. I also agree with you S-O, a waste of his talent.

But isn't that also something for a player to aim to do outside of the club? If he isn't fit enough to do 80, then why should he play the full 80?

Play him from the start ... then if he flags, take him off.
If he flags, tell him to get fitter, tell him he is a key player.
If he's not prepared to do that ... he's a Mark Castle and will be offloaded.
But I think he would do it.

Waterman is a try machine who would run through a brick wall, like Leafy would.
So has to be lined up 15 metres out as much as possible.

I do think he has problem ankle though.

With regards the team dons89 has posted earlier there are 5 players from Hull included. I am sure you can have 5 players on loan/dual reg but with a max of 4 dualreg, so if the team is correct is one of the players on loan.

Yep, that's right weighman. If the team is right, then one must be on loan.

Is that team correct though?

Can you pay at the gate today?

Barring injuries why shouldn't he be fit enough for 80 mins
I thought that was the whole point of training, so theoretically none of the squad are fit enough for 80 mins unless they
do EXTRA training, strange

Not sure myself.
I can't find anything on website.
Usually something is noted somewhere if you can.

I'm no coaching expert but coaches probably feel the game opens up as it progresses. In the early stages it is more forward muscle and less about the pace of the backs, but as time passes, speed and mobility becomes more important.

Lee has speed and mobility as well as strength. By bringing him off the bench, he is probably more able to exploit some tired legs making his speed count for more than it may do in the first 20 minutes.

Just a thought...

I've no doubt that Lee would give 100% regardless of when or for how long he played. He's that type of player.

I believe so

Looks like Dons89 was correct about the 17, the official site says we have 5 dual reg players.

He looks to be connected.

Apart from Feka, we had next to no forward power.
We were outbossed in the forwards and that was the only difference today.
Fev had nobody special ...
That was a game we could have won, but didn't.

We have not won in at least our last eight games.
If it wasn't for the Hull lads we'd be shiite.
Too many lightweights for me.
Which in no way is meant to imply the lads aren't doing all they can.
Just lacking enough class and size.

good effort from the lads today. i do agree with S/O about the forward power but i was pleased with the defence today a massive improvement on last week. Confident about Workington next week that we can get a result
