Anyway, back on topic. I don't expect Carlos, Ligi or Savelio to play so i would expect the 17 to be,

Hoy,
Mcintosh
Scott
Sutcliffe
Swift
Mcnamara
Clifford
Satae
Dwyer/Houghton
Taylor
Griffin
Lane
Fash

Evans
Brown
Dwyer/Houghton
Lovodua/Cator

If Carlos, Ligi and Dre are not 100% fit then so early in the season and with cover for all 3 then no brainer they shouldn't be in the 17 for Cas. As Bonaire said if the 17 that plays on Sunday plays well and wins then they will have to wait to get their opportunity.

I'm guessing Ligi's dead leg must have been a nasty one if he's still only 50/50.

Yep pretty much the team I'd go with and think Dwyer has earned the starting spot. Evans & Brown are obvious choices for the bench with Ligi likely not risked and for me, with Dre also missing I think Cator gets the next spot on the bench. Then it's a choice of Lovodua or Houghton, I'd rather see Lovodua get the spot as he offers more but think Smith may go for Houghton.

Never really accepted this idea that you can't change a winning team. If you believe you can improve the side with the options available to you then you do it.

Very fair point. I think that is one of the positives of having good results/performances in the pre season matches. Particularly Scott, Griffin and Taylor, all of which cover the three who are 50/50. Personally would rest those who are doubtful for the Leeds match with it been a quick turnaround.

I don't even know where to start with this twaddle

Looks good to me and I'd go for Dwyer starting given that he's been a stand out in pre-season.

Hopefully Tuimavave, Savelio and Sao come into contention for the Leeds game - given the short turnaround a couple of changes would be an option even if we win on Sunday.

Shurrup you snowflake

I'd have all 3 in my starting line up if they're fit.

We've only got a 5 day turnaround to the Leeds game though, so that might have some bearing

For me, I would be massively targeting the Cas three quarters. Fonua, Mamo, Faraimo are not great with their decision making. I'd be throwing all kinds of shape at them

Slap on the wrist for Westerman

For me this sums up today's world

Many ex superstars have done this over years but today's world gets caught on a mobile camera and punished

Majority of people weren't offended when seeing the video more laughing

Yet still apparently "bad"



This world is laughable no wonder majority fell for lock down look abit daft now

But surely cas won't play him

As be basically won't hear the end of it

The twaddle above said sackable

Clearly not sackable they haven't sacked him



Modern world ...."covid", energy bills, petrol prices,

Guess what only 2 years down the line

You all fell for covid I didn't

The government are and was laughing at you

Remember what I've always said about Connor and Houghton

That guy loved Connor guess what happened





Houghton was the best apparently .....cause he could tackle



Down the pecking order already !

Says it all

Bet you go through tin foil like I don't know what.

Is this guy any less likeable. He’s a walking conspiracy theory.

What are you going to do if Houghton plays on Sunday. The reality is friendlies don’t transpire to who plays this weekend. My gut tells me Houghton will be in the 17 and what will you do then.

Probably Claim smith is an idiot who doesn’t understand rugby.

Has someone confiscated your crayons this morning?

He’s exactly the sort of person the (ignore) button was created for and I use it for him



Only get to see the rubbish he spouts when someone quotes him
