Id start Eorl too, needs to be on for as long as possible

Eden deffo at fullback

Otherwise that's pretty much how I'd run it

For me, Sunday's team looks like:

Murphy

McGillvary Cudjoe Lawrence George

Brough Robinson

O'Donnell (if fit)
Fa'alogo Chan
Mason Moore Crabtree

Fairbank
Patrick
Walker
Lee

For me we need to keep Moore next year, with Lunt as the interchange hooker. Maybe keep Lee for cover in the halves?

Don't think I'd have 3 young forwards to bring on, probably mix it up a bit and start Walker and have Mason to bring on. Don't think 3 young lads would be as bigger impact. Watching Sundays performance, creativity is needed including leadership. An experienced half back is needed so broughy can do his own thing, whilst our experienced half back can lead the team round the park.

I dont think we could go far wrong with the enthusiasm of Fairbank and Patrick. For me it's got to be time to drop Gilmour, he has struggled the last two seasons and Bruno can more than adequately fill the centre spot until Wardle returns (we have really missed Joe! his lines and breaks at the start of the year were second to none). Wouldnt mind seeing Molloy/Cording having a run out at some point if they are fit.

We need to get the team fighting for their place again and fighting for the top 8!

Also who plays stand off in the reserves? Time to give them a shot in the first team?

Has Keiron Purtill come in already does anyone know?

Walker won't be playing he's out injured possibly for the season and is also OOC at the end of the season. Not agreed anything with the club yet and it's looking high unlikely that he will unless the club have a change of heart.

Think they are looking at bringing him in early, nothing confirmed yet though.

will def be intresting to see what andersons team will be! will show prob where he disagreed with nathan brown and also point us to how he wants to go in the future..

is there going to be any news on o'donnell???????????? maybe he fell out with the players when the revolt happened and stuck up for nathan brown... or is it a season ending injury again

i dont think the team was far wrong on sunday apart from murphy moving to full back and dropping gilmore.

hard to pick a team when you dont have all the team fit...o'donnell and wardle would go straight into my team.
molloy is out for the season and looks like walker is too.

but without them id go

Murphy

George
Lawrence (though his tackling stats when in the second row are awesome, wardle back in when fit)
Cudjoe
Mcgillvary

Brough
Brown

Robinson
Ferguson
Chan
Crabtree
Mason
Faiumu

bench-

Fairbank
Patrick
Moore
Faalogo


could improve the team if players were fot i.e o'donnell and wardle but have to go without them for now

crabtree/mason to start us off in the pack with patrick/faalogo to keep the size when interchanging.

i still like kev brown, but could argue to put robinson in place of him and put faiumu at hooker interchanging with moore.


then if form drops or injuries we have the likes of lee, grix, gilmour and eden to come in (jeez just looking at those replacements its clear we lack a prop!)

I'd put Eden at fullback

He is too good to drop I think, especially after the mare Grix had at 1, and the howler Murphy made - his attacking play is so much better than Murphy's

I like Murphy, but he is cover for Eden, George & Gerry - if they are fit they play ahead of him in my opinion.

Eden
George
Bruno
Leroy
Gerry
Brough
Luke
Crabtree
Moore
Mason
Fa'alogo
Chan
Fooey

Patrick
Fairbank
O'Donnel
Lee

Is my team for Sunday, and in all honesty that team can turn over anyone in the league.

I don't see how the howler Murphy made is any worse than the 2 or 3 we are guaranteed from Eden? Up until Sunday's game no one had a bad word to say against Murphy. I really like Eden and his attacking flair but at this moment in time we need to sure up our defence and from what I have seen this season Murphy is our best defensive choice at full back. Eden needs to work on his basics and cutting his error count down a little bit, then he will give the coach no choice.

Murphy showed his short comings at Widnes and for me is a winger or nothing (though after that game some Wakefield fans stuck up for him and obviously they have seen more of him at Full Back), for me Eden is the present and the future and we need to stick with him as the potantial is there and learning from his mistakes is part of his development curve and if we squeeze him out some other club will come in and reap the benefit from what he has done for us so far this season.

Looks like you lot want Kev Brown gone now.

Your peception knows no bounds and I think if he had left in June no tears would have been shed. Think if budgets/salary cap had allowed he would have gone straight away but like Nathan his career at Giants will have a cloud hanging over the end of it and that is a real shame.

correct !

exactly..that is prob the first mistake ive seen murphy make, dropping one ball!!!

i dont think he is fast enough for the wing though, would like to see him have a run at full back, very good in defence and would give the players infront of him more confidence.. i dont think they have confidence in eden.

eden came to us as a winger too...though that was a disaster when he played at widnes!

i dont think we will squeeze eden out, hes just signed up to a new contract...sure he knows hes still got alot of learning to do, when he signed he wouldnt of dreamed he would of started this many games in super league..his time will come again

i dont.

feel sorry for him getting alot of stick when hes not the only one whos lost form.

very good player and will come good again before the season is over i feel.

murphy was a centre at wakey thats where he should be playing here with the injury to waddle . next year we need a 6 first and 2 props depending on who is leaving we may need anouther half back,2nd row or hooker

I agree with That Kevin Brown has been very good for us and i would hate to see that blighted by a poor ending to this season.

Have a lot of time for Brown and wish him all the best.

Me I'd put Grix back into stand off half,I think he could have some potential there if they could organise properly around him.This is the challenge for PA & I don't envy him in that task after what we have witnessed on attack so far this year.Yes we know he'll never be in the same class as someone like Finch,but I don't see a better option just now.Plus Grixy has the second best kicking game in the club.We know he can't tackle a fish supper,but then neither can some other stand offs in SL.

I've kept schtum but I can no longer, like another poster I've thought that we were punching above our weight for a few months and it would become evident at the business end of the season.

Well we're there now and we, or to be more correct, Sir Ken, has dumped the coach.

Everyone seems to have got the taste of blood and now want Kev's.
This brings to mind that old saying ---' Be careful what you wish for, because you might just get it'

He has been good over the years for your team and now getting slated.I think he is lacking confidence at the moment.Been swapping from loosefwd to standoff brings no continuity.Seems like a Scapegoat because leaving, as I feel others have played badly too.

For me Kevin Brown has been a good player, but unfortunately not a good captain. IMO David Faiumu would make a far better fist of the job, experienced player and usually makes a difference when he comes on. Failing that I'd go for Danny Brough a guy who always gives 100%+. BTW When is Chris Thorman coming and what is he going to be doing?

Playing at FB until Eden regains his confidence!
