Challenge Cupv Cats : Fri Apr 02, 2021 4:50 pm  

What to do for this game.. The CC could provide a win and give the squad a chance to gain some confidence, with 3 returning from injury do you stick with the same team or attempt to mix it up a little.
New half back partnership
Bring in younger players.
Select a new Centre
Its going to be interesting to see if the club intend to make progress or see it as an unwelcome distraction.

Why would you change the half back partnership after 2 games ? It’s more game time together they need imo . Hopefully Jowitt back at fullback along with Kyle wood and Eddie Battye ..

How about we play fully fit players

We know what Miller brings to the table, play Rocky (IF FULLY FIT)
Arundal in the centre.
I get your point about playing a more settled side, but we have plenty of games coming up against top teams that we will need oirstrongest squad for. The cats game can be used to take a look at other squad members.

he needs to get all the injured players fully fit, I’ve not spoke to Ryan but I can tell a mile off he doesn’t look fit by the way he’s moving and getting about and he hasn’t for 12 months. If we have to throw the cc to get players fit for the sl battle then so be it

Totally agree, get players fit. If we are not to progress in the C C play a mix of established players and squad.
Its another season without a good C C run but I have a feeling we will need a more solid squad for the battles to come.

Haven’t seen enough of bowes to comment but if Kyle wood is fit he has to be in the 17 , if not wood and crowther so far haven’t created a great deal . Personally think crowther would probably edge batchelor in back row . hard to pick team until you know who’s available and I guess some on here with their enigmatic comments either know more or think they know more than me. Catalans are probably a stronger team in terms of available 1-17 than either Leeds or Wigan .

We need to get the ball to Johnston tupo lyne in space we won’t beet Catalan with the give it to Dave or the tj miracle tries
