So, did MCB pick up a knock, or is he the fall guy for that performance.....?

He obviously wasn't the only one that hade a 'mare against Shudds...would have dropped Williams for Milky too, assuming he's fit ??

Nope, he certainly wasn't the only one, hence I feel it's a little unfair if he's the only one to carry the can, but of course we won't know until he picks his 17, and even then there can't be that many changes given the 19 announced. I suppose one way to look at it is, they have a point to prove after that performance, hopefully!

From Chester's post-match interview, I would have put money on Williams being dropped (and I'm not a betting man), so I'm guessing that Milky isn't fully fit yet ?

BJB and CB had mares, BJB far worse in my view. At least CB picked himself up in the 2nd half. I hope BJB has had the counselling he clearly needs after watching his implosion on Fri or we look forward to some more keystone cop moments

Seems strange that it's virtually the same squad give or take one or two.
Anyway, the coach knows best but if I was the coach I'd rattle them up if they cave in again, we don't want a repeat of last seasons shambles!

I'm not sure how many changes that it's sensible to make.
When you take account of injuries and the fact that most of our 19's aren't yet ready for SL, it could only ever be 2 or 3 changes.
Have to say that I'm very surprised that BJB is in there, he looked a broken man on Friday and with Leeds very likely to test him early doors, anything could happen.
Also, I know it's been a long running debate on here for most of the season but, Grix has looked knackered for a few weeks now and Jowitt should get his turn.
Arundell should play, with Lynn moved out onto the wing.

I agree, I also think since MCB got the wing birth after the TJ injury he has been the best of our wingers.
Very harsh on the kid if he is the only one to get dropped.
