He ought to start with whoever is fit and work out the team from there. Playing injured players (I assume 'busted' is somehow meant to make them sound tougher or something?) compounded issues in 2016 and will do this year if it happens again. Regardless of ability or lack of it, the likes of Ormondroyd and Walters should be picked ahead of unfit players. After that juniors, again ahead of players carrying injuries that just need rest. Far better to consciously bin a game if that's what it takes to get players properly fit for the next one. Plus you get to see who out of the fringe players stands up.

Yes give Walters a run again. Instead of walking wounded

Pretty much what he did previously. Which ironically saw him condemned by some of those now most critical about him allegedly using injured players. Who'd be a coach?

Pleased for Lilley, plenty of talent and ability, but needs to be bossing games and assert is authority to make up for his lack of pass.
i would have Walters in over Ferres anyway, effort and heart over laziness. although to be fair i actually thought ferrres went better last week, hopefully starting to at last show his real ability.
Ormanroyd meh, championship experiment again see Yates Baldwinson.

Good knowledge, Baldwinson was at leeds for years as a service area, scholarship and Academy player.
