This side nearly picks itself a choice in the back row and at interchange prop.
McGowan
Blackmore
Myers
Gill
Taufua
Holmes
Lilley
Lawrence
Souter
Doro
Peposhi / Wilson
Fulton
Davies

Ott
Appo
Scurr
Okoro / Roger’s

Looks a stronger side on paper than last week, I’would like to see Davies at 13 even when everyone is fit.
Dare I say this is a must win game, won’t be easy at Swinton though.

I got the impression from EOCs interview that JD wasn’t fit? Hope I’m wrong

I got that impression too. Could be a bit of sculddugery going on there.

Why would you include him in the 21 man squad if he wasn’t fit?
All you would do is give the opposition a boost when they know he’s not going to play.

Maybe he’s having a late fitness test ?

Doesn’t anyone know how baldwinson went in the reserves?

Re: Swinton (a) : Sat May 04, 2024 8:24 am  

From what I’ve read as well as anyone does after 10m out, steady away, probably needs a game at Rochdale given I suspect our next reserves games won’t be for a few weeks

Must win game for me this, otherwise the season will feel like having a massive pin stuck in it.

Having Lawrence back is massive. We know what sort of game it's going to be rough, tough. Swinton aren't going to give us an inch.

Hopefully Davies is fit to play. Having him Fulton and Lawrence as our back row will make a huge difference. Scurr and Holmes will be sharper now they've got a game under their belts after a long lay off. No excuses and EOC certainly looked more bullish than recent weeks, so he's expecting a response too. Time for the talking to stop.

Tough game but one we need to find a way to win if we are serious about top 4 places - especially after two losses. Lose again tomorrow and suddenly our season opening looks very ordinary, we aren’t good enough to slip too far behind the pack chasing Wakey.
