2 games and £300 fine after pleading guilty

Seems a tad harsh given the things they've let go this year already, but it was dangerous and perhaps worth a ban.

Well he's pleaded guilty so can't argue with it

Shame he'll miss the cup match but a good opportunity for some of our younger forwards

Isn't he back for cup game?

Walker's a good lad to come in and take that "big" 13 spot, his work rate in his appearances so far has been very impressive and would help compensate for Masoe's lack of fitness, but I wonder when we're going to see Savelio given his debut? He never get's mentioned by brown, but those who've seen him are convinced of his star quality.

He will be,Wakefield and Leeds to sit out then back for Hudds.

I'm a big fan of Walker, he showed some great defensive work rate.

If he can build up his go forward then I'd have no problem rotating him in and out as needed.

He was pretty poor when he retuned from injury last year. I can't recall what game but he got took off after several mistakes.

I've been wondering the same, he's a big lad and seems to get great praise, so its time to see how he'll go in the big league

He's only played 1 game in 8 months, and needs to get himself fully match fit, before he's ready to step up. I'm sure he will do in the long term, but he's not ready yet.

He's been out for long long time but was exceptional in his first game back.

Providing he's recovered from a nightmare year he's just had I think he going to be very good player.

wel if we can afford to play Wello for just 15 mins, i think we can do the same with some of our young forwards

I'd give him another few month. He's never played super league, he's played one game since about July and he'd had illness before that as well.

Don't think we should rush him.

no, perhaps not but some of our other young players should be starting to get dripped into the team slowly

When they picked Thompson for the first time, he seemed to come from nowhere to get picked in front of the likes ofWalker, Greenwood and Forster. Perhaps the same could happen with Savelio?

I think Dwyer is ahead of savilio (sp) at moment due to him not playing much rugby for past 12 month.

Didn't he play at hooker during the Whitehaven pre season game?

Played Backrow when I've seen him

But I honestly can't see past Brown using the guys who have experience of first grade like Thompson, Walker, greenwood, Richards, Hand and Forster.

And rightfully so. These guys were blooded last year, and gives us the strength in depth we have. They did a job last year, and deserve a chance to fight for their place in the team. Savelio may end up a world class talent better than all of them, but he should wait for his chance, rushing him through will damage his development, as well as risking us losing other talent (ala Matty smith rushing Kyle forward)

If I were to risk any untried youngster, it'd be charnock.

Walker, Greenwood and Richards are all likely to be thrown in on Sunday. A good test for them.

I'd like to see Charnock given a run but it isn't going to happen just yet.

Is Forster still at London?

I think so, he played last weekend for them.
