York Acorn (H) - Challenge Cup Rd3 : Thu Mar 09, 2023 8:49 am  

What are we expecting here? I’d like to see some people get gametime, and I’d like to see some members of the squad like Appo and Arundel get some more time on the pitch to get them fitter for the rest of the season. For me:

Flanagan Jr
Foggin-Johnston
Arundel
Myers
Adams
Lawford
Patton
Foster
Roby
Rodgers
England
Wallace
Appo

Jowitt
Baldwinson
Green
Butler (if fit to give him some gametime before Sheff)

Ah. Did not know that. What happened? Play Appo there. Baldwinson to 13. Johnson to bench.

England has a broken thumb.

I’d have Scurr in, get him some game time

Re: York Acorn (H) - Challenge Cup : Thu Mar 09, 2023 11:33 am  

Scurr needs to play to get some game time. Johnson for the same reason.

I suspect Lawford, Flanagan Jr and Myers will be in the team.

DFJ will play instead of Tindall, who I imagine Leeds won't want to be cup-tied.

Beyond that - well, we haven't got a massive squad, and we won't be able to rest all that many.

Myers should definitely come in. I'd rest Gill. Arundal needs to play as we don't have another back up centre. Not sure who Adams is? Academy?

If rest a few as its been a tough few weeks and we've a crucial few fixtures coming up after the Cup against teams around us hoping to get in the play-offs. Give players chance to rest knocks and others some needed game time.

Looking at the weather today, I'd be suprised if we get the game on. Freezing temperatures all weekend which isn't going to shift the snow. It's warmer on Sunday but I'm doubtful it'll clear in time.

Yeah mate. Adams is academy. Not sure how good he is. But can afford to have a kid on the wing.

I’d maybe think about playing Camden from the bench too.
