Were starting with 3 props? Should be an interesting formation

If of took mcnamara out for his own good and had Connor at halfback, Mcnamaras well out his depth as is Johnstone

Surely would of made more sense with Sao at loose forward and Fash to second Row?

This lineups going to baffle us all again isn't it hahaha

If lovodua is at 6, it'll be the battle of the show and gos between him and Austin all evening. Wonder how many our defence fall for tonight from Austin?

It feels like Hodgson is picking names out of a hat.

Hardly surprising with Carlos, McIntosh, Reynolds, Gale, Scott, (and Hookem) and probably Wynne missing from the backs alone.

Re: Round 5 - Leeds : Thu Mar 10, 2022 6:34 pm  

Don't know what to make of that line up.

Leeds look strong.

Think its going to be a long night.

Leeds 38 - hull 12. Hope I'm wrong

Re: Round 5 - Leeds : Thu Mar 10, 2022 6:37 pm  

Looks as though we're going to use our pack strength hahaha

Well I suppose play to your strengths and hope to bully them with size and aggression

Re: Round 5 - Leeds : Thu Mar 10, 2022 6:57 pm  

Deary me. Can we forfeit the game and take a lesser humiliation? Knowing our luck we'll pick up more injuries and suspensions for the Hudds game.

Re: Round 5 - Leeds : Thu Mar 10, 2022 7:03 pm  

Lovodua in the halves could end up been genius or foolish.
But if nothing else it will be nice to have him on the pitch for the full game. I do also expect to see him still jump in at dummy half quite often if he sees the opportunity for a good scoot. I'm thinking we might see him play a bit of a hybrid of 6 and 9.

None of his selections lately make any sense
What is this love in with Johnstone?
A full back on the wing
A wing at centre
Our best nine option at 6
All because he wont move Connor from full back to 6

At least he has remembered Bowden who can supplement the 10 minutes each half Evans will play
Like Hodgson but as a coach he is alarmingly making too many selection errors

what with two 10 minute each half front rows and Cator playing his first game for months
