Yep, Lunt starts for me as well.

I know Dwyer has had his knockers but a 25-30 minutes spell against a tiring Catalan side he can do some damage.

Starting with a new 9 and 6 is a bit of a gamble, but it would be interesting to see if it improves our shape. We just need to get Newman and Hurrell into space with Walker up into the line in good ball - most sides would worry with that.

Good to hear a strong confident attitude from Lui, something along the lines of ‘if the pack takes us forward we will take care of the rest’

Over to the the pack then.....

Re: SL RD 20 | Catalan Dragons (H) : Thu Jun 27, 2019 3:56 pm  

Walker
Briscoe
Newman
Hurrell
Handley
Lui
Myler
Seumanufagai
Lunt
Oledski
Ferres
Smith
Merrin

Dwyer
Cuthbertson
Albert
Sutcliffe

Ferres has been poor but sadly we need him unless we have any returning from injury. Having our 2nd rows as Smith, Donaldson and Sutcliffe, they will be seriously out muscled by Catalans big forwards

Re: SL RD 20 | Catalan Dragons (H) : Thu Jun 27, 2019 5:32 pm  

Hope we go with

Walker
T.Briscoe
Newman
Hurrell
Handley/(L.Briscoe if Handley isn't fit)
Lui
Myler
Seamanufagai
Lunt
Singleton
Smith
Sutcliffe
Merrin

Subs

Cuthbertson
Dwyer
Oldezki
Donaldson

No Doubt Ferres will play and I sort of agree with a previous poster he is bigger than Smith, Sutcliffe, Donaldson but he has little effort and is shocking every week but he'll probably play in back row with Smith missing out I reckon.

We need to make some gambles we are so poor and been same old same old, so we have to roll the dice.

Elvis comeback might be a better bet.

They are both experienced players so it shouldn’t be too much of an issue. The rest of the team needs to learn to play off them quickly.

KR looking good here and Parcell going well linking with McGuire and Drinkwater
