Never be afraid to change a winning team if you think you can make it stronger. Speaking personally, the only change i would make is Hodgson in for Jordan Cox but i'm sure that Craig Sandercock will give a lot of thought to Craig Hall and Lincoln Withers if they are available. Got to be a good thing surely.

Go on then I’ll say it… Craig Hall isn’t all that, he’s a good back up player, ideal for the inevitable injury crisis, can play 1 – 7 or 13 so ideal for any squad

I thought he looked awful against Salford and just don’t see how he’ll add to our team currently. He’s lost on the wing and the defensively Salter has looked good so why move him out for a player who is arguably weaker in defence at centre. We aren’t lacking in attack so to add another pivot may do more harm than good, keep Hall in reserve for when we pick up a knock or get to a point when we really need to rest someone. A full strength HKR team doesn’t have CH in the 17.

Pariah,burn the witch,off with his head.
Hope you're ready BR.

Just Josh for Jordan the only change in the 17 for me!

Agreed

If and I mean if he plays hall stick him on the bench and that has covered 1to 7 if any injuries

Thaler is the ref........

Drop Horne. Only a backup player and doesn't do that much. As a backup player, Hall offers more.

Dropping Horne is one thing, but still leaves the question as to where would you play Hall - loose?

Horne has done a fine job in spelling Mika in the back row the last 2 games. Clearly Conn can't do 80 mins (which is dissapointing for a 23 year old), but Hall can't do this job and at present GH is a better option than Cox.

As much as I like Hall, he isn't that good that he can just walk back into the team, he will have to bide his time and wait for Burn's inevitable suspension.

It would be brilliant to see him back in action, even if he scores ten tries against us.

Hopefully great news for the lad.

The biggest threat Hall poses right now is halting the progress we're making defensively.

I've read a lot of stuff recently that comes across that the players get credit for our attack but the coach takes the flak for our defence when I tend to see things the other way round; the coach gives the team some superb attacking plays but the players have lacked the capability (until the Salford game) to execute the defensive structures well enough.

Right centre must be the single most hardest position to defend on the pitch because most traffic comes down the right edge, most attacking is one on one and also because he's often the key decision maker of when to shift the slide to the out the back runner for instance. Salter executes all of the above as if he's had years of experience and he therefore should keep his place in the team.

Alex Brown also has scored 4 tries in 2 games and works well in tandem with Salter who Brown gave great credit to Salter for his talking and guidance on the pitch during Warrington home game.

The moment we start to want to put players in the team because of their attack instead of assessing their attack [iand[/i defence, then we'll really struggle to build consistency in the team.

In short I'd bring Hodgson for Cox - other than that, the same team as last week.

It's a 50/50 game which could go either way though I think.

I'll have a heart attack if he scores ten! But in all truth, yes - awful stuff. Great to see him back and hopefully gets the all clear.
