We move on to a new week, likely to be the same side and the same result

Huddersfield haven't won a home game all season. They'll definitely get their first home win.

Expecting Connor to be back in the team for them and tear us apart

Just wind him up like wire did and watch him explode.

Let’s see if Grix has the Balls either to leave Houghton out or actually spell him before halftime but not holding my breath…Walker and Martinto come back in surely.

Walker
Martin
Sutty
Scott
Briscoe
Trueman
Reynolds
Eseese
Houghton
Fash
Ashworth
Lane
Sao
Subs
Aydin
Smith
Moy
Chan
I'd like to see this with Smith coming on after 20 and moving Danny to 13 or dare I say it spelling him. Moy to maybe spell 9 too.

Beat us in Cup

Lane offered nothing v Cas, barely noticed he was playing...start Jebson and drop Lane to the bench? Wonder at what point we'll recall Okunbor, Pele and tindall and give them another go.

And don't see Ockunbor amd Tindall playing again.

I'd bet none are here next season too.

Erased that from my memory already

Nothing like a game against us to end a long losing streak

Another 30+ points conceded no doubt.
We're an absolute gimme for teams.

Leeds at home could be our best chance with them wanting Rowan gone, mind you I thought we'd beat London and Castleford.

I hope Ese ese is the only quota player left, this would give Cartwright 5 NRL players to sign.

Fingers crossed, I could except Satae if either Sao or Pele go.

Hopefully both, but at least we do get some value from Sao, but he needs to play in the middle.

For this game and presuming everyone is fit from last week, 'd go with.

Walker
Barron
Sutcliffe
Scott
Briscoe
Trueman
Reynolds
Ese Ese
Smith
Fash
Ashworth
Jebson
Houghton

Sao
Aydin
Moy
Chan


Won't happen though, Lane will start and Houghton will be hooker.

At least Swift can't score a bag full

Ok throw common sense out of the window.We nothing to lose so here is a total roll of the dice.
Walker
Tindall
Briscoe
Sutcliffe
Martin
Reynolds
Trueman
Ese
Smith
Sao
Ashworth
Chan
Houghton
Subs
Pele
Aydin
Okunbor
Fash

Cr@p odds at 3/1 for the win
We should be at least double that.
I'd love to back us, but then think, we really are e.

If this coach really does look at form of a player or players rather than experience both Sutcliffe and Houghton should not be in the team

I would bring back Okunbor and play him in the centre for Sutcliffe.or on the wing and move Briscoe to centre
We really need to find some pace in our backs and maybe time to try something a bit different with Tindall,Martin, and Barron all playing

I'd be curious to see that. I'd even forgive a big loss if i could see he was trying something different.

Doing the same thing repeatedly expecting different outcomes is a sign of insanity, as they say.

Martinto? Have we signed an Italian from NRL

Carlos is supposed to be due back by now. As is Mitch.

May as well give Carlos his usual 30 minutes before he gets another 2-3 month rest period.

Reading grixs latest comments regarding houghton, have recent coachs beeen abit too obssessed with defence, the attacks totally stifled by his lack of intensity at the play the ball, yet its totally ignored in preference to houghtons line speed in defence

Yes worrying comment Smith was great for 20, but then he says but Danny was for 60, Smith should be playing more at 9 simple

The narrative from the club is definitely that DH is still first choice hooker. Grix, Cummins and even Pearson are saying that.

I don't know if they genuinely believe that or are perhaps trying to be respectful to the man. Right now I wouldn't be surprised to find out that there's something in his contract saying that if he's fit, he plays. But from the stands it certainly looks like his time as the first choice 80 (60) minute hooker is done. Doesn't mean his overall time is done with us, just that we need to be managing him better that we do to get him at his most effective.

Defence wins games. DH has his weaknesses but kicking, game management and his tackling cannot be overestimated. I would doubt, as someone suggeste, that there is a clause in his contract that he always gets picked. That would be so unprofessional. He is picked by all the coaches because they are wiser than us knowitalls
