Phelps although no world beater is still better than the alternatives currently available within on squad.

I dont think Phelps offers anything Ainscough couldnt. Ainscough could offer more in some areas.

What does Bailey offer that Mossop wouldnt? Mossop is miles better in attack and he is solid in defence.

Going even Further, what does Coley offer that Prescott or O'Carroll wouldnt.

What does Mathers offer tha Veivers couldnt?

That list may continue further if we carry on playing as we are.

Exactly - What does this team do for us:

Mathers
Roberts
Phelps
Carmont
Richards
Smith
Leuluai
Fielden
Riddell
Coley
Bailey
Hock
O'Loughlin

Feka
Tomkins (J)
Prescott
McIlorum

That this one couldnt:

Richards
Roberts
Goulding
Carmont
Ainscough
Tomkins (S)
Smith
Fielden
Leuluai
Prescott
Hansen
Tomkins (J)
O'Loughlin

Feka
Hock
McIlorum
O'Carroll

IMO the 2nd team is better and yet we still see players like Bailey, Coley, Phelps and Mathers playing dire every week and we have players like Tomkins, McIlorum, Ainscough, O'Carroll, Mossop, Farrell running riot in the academys every week not being tested, we've got the players there so why dont we use them?

because noble is loosing his grip on reality, he has just been on the superleague show claiming we should have a salary cap waver to target one ru player per club, he reckons there arnt enough uk players!

Vievers is nowhere near ready for first team rugby.

What would you do if Phelps, Roberts and Richards are all injured? I wouldn't want to throw him in there but if we are put in that situation then we'd probably have to. Either that or play a few players out of position.
