Personally think Myler and Lolohea need it for next week. Sutcliffe still isn’t an half, whether the team looked better without Lolohea or not. Got to give it another go.

I know you have a huge downer on Sutcliffe but Lolohea shouldn't be anywhere near a SL side

He's playing a championship side next week, not a super league. It isn't about Sutcliffe as a player. The point is, yes you can say Lolohea isn't going to be the future, but neither is Sutcliffe. But one of them is for only one position, so we have to have a look to make the decision.

He is still playing in a SL side - we are in survival mode and immediate planning should not extend beyond this season and how we are going to avoid relegation. To do that you need your best line up and for me Lolohea isn't part of that.

I have to agree Sal. At this moment in time the best half back pairing we have is Myler and Sutcliffe for me, far from ideal I agree, but this season is now about surviving.
I know its Workington next week and an opportunity to rest or give opportunities to but the half back pairing need to play to get more understanding.
Lolohea cannot play as a front line defender it's an open invitation. The lad does possess some skill but his weaknesses are too visable to everyone.

| Is there any truth in the rumours that the Rhinos have made a £350k bid to Cas for Trueman.

The jury's still out for me with Trueman. Great kicking game but he doesn't strike me as another Iestyn Harris.

Ryan Carr made a reference after the game to having been forced into making a late change to his line-up so maybe it was McLelland he was referring to.

| Phil Clarke was going on about 20 years ago Leeds paid wire 350k for the one man band, Harris (as Mick Morgan used to call him )so why today don’t they pay £500k for Trueman?
I suspect it’s a rumour solely within the confines of his pie encrusted imagination.

Lest we forget that Phil Clarke said on Thursday that Mitch Garbutt was 'in my opinion one of the Top 10 players in Super League, Eddie'.

It has subsequently been revealed that there was a late problem with the paperwork that only came to light on Friday afternoon, after Fev had landed in France. McLelland trained with the team in the week and would have started.

Trueman is nowhere near as good as Harris was then.

| Garbutt is certainly in the top 10 forwards in Super league and for sure Trueman is no where near the class Harris was at the same age

| Nobody is anywhere near how good Harris was in 1997. I include all the current overseas players in SL in that assessment.

And an accurate assessment it is.

| One of the greatest player in the SL era - shame he was ruined in RU - he didn't run across the grass he glided across it. The best body swerve I have seen in a modern player - genius.

| It'd be really interesting to hear his view of what happened. He was never as fast as he sometimes looked - awareness made him get into position faster than most. A bit like Tomkins in his younger days.

And he made it all look so easy as well.

| Cliff Lyons was my favorite effortless player. Didn't have the speed of Harris but if those sort of stats are available from thet era I'll bet his try assist was through the roof

| Iestyn was an unbelievable player. I don't think he was that fast but he was fast enough.
He could break defenders ankles with his swerve and step and he had tremendous vision to open up defences. Just pure class. Serious class.
When the late great Graham Murray, RIP Muzz, got his hands on him and put him to full back it really brought the best out of him.
He was magnificent was Iestyn and it's a shame his return to league was handled the way it was.but it doesn't take away his brilliance in the blue and amber.
Iestyn and Webby was 2 magnificent full backs.
