I think you've set me up with a straw man to knock down!
I doubt very much that these are the 20-odd players Rea would pick from scratch but that would be the same for every coach in the world, wouldn't it?
Rea should be getting something different from this squad to what was delivered by Powell. Sadly, his record is little different to Powell's because he's selecting the same players, *in the same roles*. That makes no sense to me.
Equally frustratingly, he seems to be making precisely the same error as Powell by running his better forwards into the ground - Lee, Rodney and Bailey can't play these minutes every round and, like last year, we're starting to see the effects of physical and mental fatigue.
Honestly, RB, it is very difficult to watch the same season twice! I fully expect us to draw Dewsbury at home in the Cup ...
