Re: Sam Barlow Hull KR Rumour : Sat Feb 16, 2013 2:12 pm
Interesting to see all our props going so well at the moment ( in my opinion ) & Murrell the preferred No.13, Manning & Divo i reckon are first pick in the second row spots where Sam is going to get in unless someone is unfortunate enough to be kept out through injury or otherwise. Robbo can, i imagine, play anywhere apart from hooker in this pack & Murrell is obviously an option if needs be at 9 or 6 either to re-shape how we play or due to injuries/suspensions/lack of form by others, likewise Tiger at 9 & Ashall senior at 13.I do believe that Sam has been more effective being introduced into games from the bench & his previous form at prop or 13 lends himself to another who can play in alternative positions. On this basis & while ever the grounds are on the heavy side, I feel not only can we cover all forward positions adequately & with experience, we'll take some beating down the middle. Fev's pack coped very well in awful conditions at Dewsbury last sunday on tv & as we know Dews will be a different side this time under Morrison & with several new faces in their side. If we can remain unbeaten or at least beat those main challengers in the top part of the division until the drier, firmer tracks come along we'll be in a great position to challenge for honours.
