God to agree it looks pretty shoddy. That said the only attribute Gaskell has left is a decent pass so Murphy may get a chance.

It’s fair to say Hall has faltered in recent weeks and a rest is not a bad idea.

I’ve lost faith in Croft, a shadow of what he was pre injury.

I’m sure you mentioned attending the fixture versus KR reserves earlier in the year and appreciate it wasn’t against their first team but he looked brilliant with ball in hand, didn’t he? Well I thought so anyway but god knows what has changed.

It is what it is, but I think we're gunna be in for a long afternoon. Maybe the weather will be a leveller.

We have brought in several props, a winger and a fullback maybe we should have been looking at acquiring a centre as well because this was obviously an area we lacked cover.
I bet those in the temporary stand are not so happy with the current weather conditions or have we thought of a contingency plan.

Kershaw on wing and Taufua at centre instead of Gaskell?

So it is Gaskell against Hurrell.

If only you were watching.
Only one winner in that battle so far.

These effing penalties are going to cost us if we don’t smarten up
