Whilst the Batley game is obviously a tough one, it does offer us the best opportunity of a home win this season, after having Leigh and Featherstone down here. A win will restore some confidence and reassure us that even though our away form has been poor, we're still able to compete and beat teams at home.
I can't help but think about the Eagles game just three days after this one. If we have a physically demanding game against Batley, we're going to be knackered for Wednesday. Some squad rotation is going to be necessary. It's a really tough call for PC from a selection point of view but I think I'd have wanted to put my best team out on Sunday and then deal with Wednesday afterwards.
Personally, I'd have picked Brett Waller and Lee Waterman for the Batley game as I think they could be key players in helping to get us the two points.
