Fair enough, if that's the case. I thought it sounded like something more cloak and dagger was being suggested.

I like cloak and dagger, a bit of mystery and controversy. I'll work on a rumour :wink:

And Walsh if he doesn't improve? Could we end up with SMD, Lomax, Burns and Walsh all outside the 17? Enough cap spend there to sign a proper player.


How would that free up cap space ? they all still need to be paid.

Injuries will play large part in how our season goes. We've seemed to have gone for depth over quality in our recruitment but I really fear for us if big Alex or Robes get injured.

I think having Vea injury free this year will definitely improve our pack. He's been very good in the games he's played. I'd play LMS in the other 2nd row with Wilkin at 13.

We can be bold enough to make a stand and do battle for our views and beliefs. But we must strive to be mature enough not to resort to unnecessary personal attacks upon people with opposing views.

Re: starting 17 : Fri Nov 13, 2015 12:24 pm  
I think if you start with Tasi and Amor, then you have to be looking at the second row to provide that punch.
Vea gives us this in spades and LMS can do it too.

We'll see as the season goes on, but I think the pack is more than capable

Tasi Roby Amor
Vea LMS
Wilkin

With Walmsley, Savelio, Greenwood and (another forward or Fages) on the bench.
That is a large pack.
Also as we seem to be insistant on running with a large bench and no one to cover Roby, then I would be looking to rest Roby 5 mins either half of half time, push Wilkin up to dummy half.
He can tackle, he can pass a ball. I think he played hooker earlier in his career and it would be similar to what Leeds did on occasions with Sinfield.

As for the backs assuming they are all fit

I'd like Roby to play the same role as England. ive always thought two quality hookers was the best tactic for any team.

I agree. When we had Cunningham starting and Robes off the bench we looked a great side. Cunningham was awesome for his defence in the opening exchanges and Robes came on then and caused havoc with his pace and awareness
