Good to see the 'of course I would'
We have different views on the team but we clearly want the same thing.
Let's hope we are both happy on Sunday.

I asked you last week on another thread what your alternative to BS was, and you failed to respond (as predicted).

I'll ask you again, this time about what team you would send out to do a job at the weekend?

State your opinions rather than just cowardly pointing out easy targets for criticism (with the benefit of hindsight).

He'd leave out a fit again Mikael Simon, who was arguably our best forward last season, and instead of replacing Anderson who imo does not deserve to be dropped with a like for like replacement in Simon, he would replace Anderson with Annakin instead of replacing an out of touch Kirmond.

Let's just be pleased that he's not on the coaching staff.

the problem with leaving Kirmond out. Who as the postional sense to replace him. Molloy hasnt got a clue how to play second row

I don't have a problem with playing kirmond vic, I just used Annakin who has earned the right imo to get into the starting 17 in the context of bojo's post.

Hopefully Annakin will be back in this squad this week (despite his knock on Saturday)
I'd keep Walton in, fetch Anthony Walker & Mikael Simon in too.

We need some aggression to put us on the front foot because I saw absolutely no aggression in attack or defence last week (Other than England)

Anyone know how far Sean Morris is off from being fit?
I'd like to see him given a chance.

I think molloy has got far better positional sense than kirmond. The reason we are conceding so much down our right side is because kirmond has gone walkabout. Watch the widnes game again, our right side is much stronger defensively while molloy is on the field.

At the moment i would have kirmond behind Arona, Tupou,Ashurst,Simon,Molloy, and Annakin in my pecking order. Although playing Walton as rotational back rower given the other options we have there seemed a strange decision to me.

I'd be even more pleased if he stopped writing rubbish!

Bookies are giving us 12 points start. I think that's a good bet with their injuries.

Morris is close to fitness. Match fitness another matter obviously

Still 14 points with Bet365 William Hill
Looks good value unless KR are kidding with their injury situation.

Maybe you'd be better off saving your prayers for the Warrington game

To be fair for us one win would be a decent run.

I'd sacrifice Miller for Hall. Millers been riding his luck in terms of team selection since his display against Warrington and aside from that has done nothing in a WTW shirt. I still think he'd be a decent centre but a 6 he is not. No doubt someone will pop up saying Brian Smith knows better but Miller is the worst halfback we've had for quite some time - Finn isn't far off. Also Gibson should be dropped.

The problem for me is that he clearly has it in him.
I thought he was great against Hull in both games
I don't see him have bad games so much, as just disappear. That needs to be rectified for him to keep his place.

Saying that, I haven't seen anything from Hall against SL opposition apart from Cas away last year and he was full back.
He goes missing far more than Miller does, has no defence and can look uninterested at times.
He has got a long kicking game though, and can open defences down the middle, so would be handy.

Problem is, having it isn't enough for either of them. Doing it is the part we struggle with.

Maybe Smith might be struggling with his selections who knows, but I'll take his selection over somebody what can't remember Miller's contribution against Hull FC but thinks he had a sparkling game against Warrington.

Gibson has been dropped.

I can think of 2 worse ones without having to rack my brains.....Tommy Lee....Jeremy Smith.

It looks promising that Simon is not playing in that game. Neither is Annakin.
You'd think that means they are both in the squad for Rovers.

Hall is still laying though so half backs are the same.

Anakin had to be helped from the field with a nasty looking leg injury last so can't see him playing.

To me Craig Hall has done enough in both friendly games to be considered for 1st team selection, looks like he is not wanted

or he's been considered and decided he is third choice.

Annakin and Simon are in the squad for HKR, with DK missing

Jeremy Smith hardly played which is quite telling so I'll give you that one.

Tommy Lee did alright for a makeshift halfback and considering he played behind a pack a thousand times worse than Miller did last year or this year. Lee was heavily criticised for his defence which I never really got because, unless your a Jose Mourihno type of coach, you don't play someone at halfback for their defence.
