Re: Leeds next up : Wed Jun 05, 2019 6:12 am  

Has there been any news on the knocks picked up last week? I’d imagine Kirmond will be ruled out through the head knock so Batchelor a straight swap? Ashurst and Randell were said to have picked up knocks?

We should have a few fresh bodies back though too...Fifita, Sau and Caton-Brown...Sau is an interesting one...Jack Croft had a superb debut last week and you’d think now with Bill due back soon and Croft and Kershaw proving they can come in and do a good job that Sau won’t be needed after the loan period is up...it seems harsh on Croft but for this one I’d go with the experience of Sau as I could see Watkins raising his performance with what’s happened in the week...

Brough should be much sharper after the game under his belt last week...Leeds are awful...the team we beat them with last time...if we don’t win with a bit to spare I’d be disappointed!

I don't think it will be easy, Players will need to up their game . I hope our h/b can form a partnership playing behind what should be a better equipped pack. Leeds have to start putting a few results together and an early start by them could result in them finding a bit of long lost form.
Out of the blocks early for trinity , no slow start .

IMO the injury excuses are now running a bit thin where certain players are concerned. We are now not that far off full strength, certainly no worse than you would expect at this point in a season and no worse than most other teams.

Only Brough can use his injury as an excuse for not being up to speed.

Miller, England, Randell and Ashurst have all been very poor since returning and need to step up in a big way as they are all important players. They need to take the pressure off the players, especially the younger ones who have been holding the fort.

That what I think, these players have been hyped and now need to match the hype if we are to get back on track, it can't all be left for big Dave to sort.

No MCB? He was only missing for a stomach bug.
Also Croft to think about.

Glad we have options.

Yeah both close to selection for me, wouldnt be unhappy with either of those in. I just rate Kershaw a bit more in defence and think we need to steady the ship and dont want to rush croft, hes only a bairn!

Leeds have had time to bhild, get fit, no bruises + learn all the new calls/ structure changes. Who will take a full fit Hurrell, he is the special one in their team ???
I have some concern over our fitness & state of mind, I know we can do it but we have to want the win badly.
Is it Kendal again or Child's ?

Re: Leeds next up : Wed Jun 05, 2019 8:30 pm  

A game we need to be winning, not critical to our season but one we should be taking the 2 points from. Been a rocky patch with injuries over the last couple of months but with players coming back and 13 games remaining we need to cement ourself in the top 5.

Yep, we’ve only got Johnstone, Tupou, Kirmond, Arona, Huby, Arundel, Jowitt, and MCB missing, and Brough, Fifita, England, Ashurst,Randell, Batchelor, all with major niggles playing through the pain barrier.

Still, could be worse!
