Rhys Evans was in our starting 17 prior to his injury & was given the number 2 shirt, since he has been injured Matty Russell has played on the wing and been a revelation. Anthony England could well be in our starting 17 off the bench, Toby King is a up and coming Centre from our 19s. He got his jaw broke against Wigan under 19s a few weeks a go.
It would not surprise me at all if James Roby played this Thursday. |

Will he? He wasn't on Friday. He had a calf injury. |

Evans certainly would be in the 17.
I agree though that your losses are terrible. Whilst they are not as important to us, the equivalents for us would be Ratchford, Myler (out anyway) and Clark. We would struggle with those three out. |

| Quote ="Judder Man"If we are going to lose Walsh next season and when Lomax finally gets back to fitness, maybe as suggested he should be brought back into the halves if young Hewitt is still not ready.
It seems Lomax injuries the majority of the time are as a result of high impacts be it running the ball out or defending against a player at speed.
Maybe we should bring him back into the game as a ball player, he can still wrong foot players at close quarters, at the moment he is still only 25 so we still have a few years to decide on the better options ..........when he becomes available of course.'"
Why don't we just sign another good half for next year if no Walsh? |

Historically, having home grown talent in the halves gives you stability and a good chance of longevity in success. If you look at early Saints, Bradford, Leeds and partially Warrington they have managed more consistency in the silverware department.
Changing you half backs every season with short term overseas players is not ideal, I think Hull KR, Wakefield, Catalans etc for example is not a recipe for success. |

It would just be nice to have two proper halves on the pitch regardless of where they from. |

True, when we eventually get Walsh + Burns playing at the same time is this the first overseas 6 and 7 for Saints. |

I like your optimism in using the word "when". |

It would indeed, it would be amazing if we could keep a halfback pairing for a few years though and finally get some stability |

In a ideal world we should have had eastmond and Gaskell as our halves for 10 years but things happen.
I'd just be happy to get walsh on the field playing with burns for a long spell this year and then next season also.
Burns had carried us really well in the halves this year and he's not been able to play his usual running game. |
