There's no need to worry about Richards outjumping Crookes for the ball. All we have to do is stop them kicking it to him.

Other teams seem to have worked out how to stop him scoring,i believe his last try was at the magic weekend, other people on here making out he scores off every kick are way off the mark on this seasons evidence.

I feel swapping Horne for Shaul would be crazy , match fitness alone should stop any thought of it. Go with the players that got us there. Look what happened when Kear dropped Brough v bulls for some player we had never heard of ?? well the rest is history !

I literally can't remember the last time I saw Richards out jump anyone to score in the corner so I wouldn't let that take that tactic worry you. His form has totally gone due to his age IMO and he needs to try and switch it back on.

I'm coming to the conclusion that, if we win, either Shaul or Crooks will win Lance Todd. Would go with the same squad as the majority, Horne and Green to miss out. Confident that we have the forward muscle to lay the platform for Miller, Holdsworth, Houghton and Heremaia, and then subsequently our backs can do the damage needed. Can't flipping wait!

Big hit on him early on should set the tone then!

Big hit on rat boy or Lockers to make sure they know we're up for it will do me..

Re: Squad Announced : Thu Aug 22, 2013 10:55 pm  

Lockers has a knack of dropping ball second or third tackle and getting penalties for his side so we need to watch ourselves.

^ this, he did this very well at the KC gaining penalties that swung the game in wigans favour late on

Of course you were told this along with the game plan and the advanced tactical substitutions
