Yes I did.
Damming, because he evaded answering the key question.

| Turns out we don’t need him on the field anyhow.
Looking forward to having him as backup if we get an injury in round 8

| I think by round 4/5 there will have been some forwards carrying knocks so Dudson can step in, and maybe a similar thing by round 8 so McGuire can step in.
If they are all fit though.... not sure how that would play out.

Correct, I heard March which I know gives a bit of leeway on a definite date, but the way that time is whizzing by it'll be here before we know it.
Looking at last night's pack performance, and we know all about injuries and suspensions, but the competition to get in the 17 should be hot

| It's interesting how injuries and suspensions were mentioned for Leeds last night, but no mention of Dudson, Philbin, McGuire, Wrench and Russell for us. All of whom would have been in the squad. That said, I'm glad Thewlis had the chance to get that wing spot.

I don't necessarily disagree but which 5 would have missed put. Holroyd, Hayes and Whitehead presumably. Wrench ahead of Thewlis? I'm not sure Philbin makes it...yet.

Last night on Sky they was saying Bullock would likely of missed out had Dudson and McGuire been available, the way Bullock played last night can’t see how he gets dropped even ahead of Philbin.

| It's funny how we play the game of who plays if all are fit. In reality it very rarely happens. My main thoughts are who plays at right second row next week if we have no Nicholson.

I’m think they would have been in a first choice ‘squad’, but my point was about how Sky seemed to mention injuries for Leeds only. They were missing a couple of big guns and a couple of strike players. As were we.
I would have expected Powell of all people to at least raise our case a bit

The club have confirmed he won't.
Best not to let it drag on. The referee said he thought he heard it, Amone admitted hearing it under questioning, and Charnley (who was the player who complained to Griffiths on the field that he hadn't taken action on it) insisted he heard it.
The precedent has been set, so as long as every other incident is reported and punished in the same manner then that's fine. Whether this happens of course remains to be seen, but let's hope so.

A good point. I’d slot Holroyd in there and keep Harrison at 13.

| I would leave Harrison at 13, he had a good game there against Leeds. We may see Matautia in the second row against Huddersfield with Minikin playing at centre, assuming that Nicholson is unable to play, with Holdroyd getting a bench spot.

Great, when we play Leigh what are the odds on Maguire going looking for Charnley for dobbing him in, especially when Charnley leg traps him Has any player ever missed all matches bar 1 due to suspension?

Well, we know McGuire is a fiery character. He’s also a very good player. It’s up to the player and Powell to work on controlling that aggression. Otherwise he’ll be a very expensive assistant coach.

Powell needs to announce to the media that McGuire is injured for the Leigh Away game (Unless he is already suspended for that fixture owing to another indiscretion!!! )

I disagree, I think maguire needs to be a leader and a professional, get the game won against Leigh no matter what charnley or any other leigh player gets up to and avoid getting needlessly suspended again. He can hit hard within the letter of the law if he wants to play on the edge but he doesnt need to get carried away.

The problem is that if he “plays on the edge”, even the right side of the “edge” he comes with a reputation and is likely to pay the price.
For the record I do not think he shouldn’t play against Leigh, my point was slightly tongue in cheek. I do wonder how he didn't just claim that he said “you’re FANTASTIC” in a sarcastic manner when asked what he said…

If we are worried about him going over the top everytime he plays then what's the point in having him? I don't think be has come over to sit in the stands, I think he'll be fine personally. In retrospect I wish Steve price had got a 7 game ban for his indiscretion live on sky.
I agree with you on the comment, he is adamant he didn't say it but doesn't come with a suggestion as to what he may have actually said! It's a bit fishy isn't it.

| All a bit ridiculous for something that happened in the confines of the pitch to which none of the paying public were able to hear. These lads are playing a sport where serious injury or maiming is only one wrong move away.
