With wheeldon in the squad, id start him alongside fozzard, think this would do him the world of good.
Think we should be starting Chev and Jake from now on, think Whelham has done good, but I think Chev and Jake are better to have in the team, whoever we're against.
18th Man will be between Rhys and Netherton, IMO'"
I'd go with that. |

| Quote ="blakeysrobin"Load of Bollax. Watts for me needs to start a few games, after all he is the future. Why put Murrell back to standoff? I'anson is a natural in that position. Remember we need to blood these and quick because before we know it we need to rely on homegrown and academy trained players.
I for one would happily swop instant success for a mediocre finish knowing 3 or 4 academy or homegrown youngsters have been suitably battlehardened for future seasons. Think Westerman at Cas.
Newton on a load of money is not earning at the moment and you cant say Cooke on a wedge is playing any better than I'anson would.'"
So if Watts is the future, how come Wheelden isn't? Because he played for Hull?.. I agree they both need game time but let's give Wheelden a run out, after all he is one of our signings we haven't seen yet.
Scott Murrell would play the same game wether he be at 6 or 13. Playing him at 6 would maybe free up the pack to add more weight. |

Whats happening with Mills, is he injured or just out of favour. Seems weird that he's dropped at a time when we have Vella out for weeks.

So your saying Wheeldon hasnt played so he needs to? So does Watts. |

Colbon dropped out today, Cockayne in in his place on the wing. Think ben will be up against Armstrong.

Hows Colbon going for HKR?
Was txtin him after the game last week and he'd said he had pulled his hamstring in the warm up and was struggling all through the game. |

Makes sense to be as Cockayne is one of the best kick returners in Super League. Too add to that, I reckon we can get a lot of joy with our kick chase game because Briscoe/Fox/Cockayne combination is significantly faster than Wellens/Gardner/Armstrong combination. |

How right was I.
Wellens & Gardner are slower than the slug in my garden and should never play for England again.
I certainly think that the crop of Leeds youngsters such as Watkins etc. are far superior to those of Saints and I expect decline to evolve when Cunningham, Long & Gidley retire as they are virtually irreplacable. |

The Peter Fox try was sublime! He was waiting right on the edge of the touchline on the same lining as the post. Gardner was about 15metres infront of him defending. Rovers had a scrum and Dobson placed it into the corner, I even think it was Welham who picked it up and gave it Fox but the pace on Fox compared to Gardner. Wow.
Assuming you wern't there Zod, apologies if you were! |

Went 2 years ago mate and didn't like the way the local plod were putting themselves about.
Anyway, it seems my point about how slow Saint's back 3 are went totally over a lot of people's heads when to me it seemed totally obvious.
It's a total embarressment to English Rugby League fans that Gardner & Wellens were even on the plane to Oz for the world cup.
God help Saints when Gidley, Cunningham & Long retire, Leeds are the model to follow if we are to have long term success IMO.... |

Saints had 9 academy products in their 17 last night, that doesnt include someone like Long who came from Wigan yet has been at Saints what feels like forever!
Leeds I think had 12/13 in their 17 last week which is amazing to think they still looked a pretty classy outfit! Just shows it can be done but it takes time.
In comparison I think Rovers only have Kris Welham as I'Anson was trained at Leeds and Netherton was brought through at Hull. I know with championship winning sides you get purses to be able to put money into your youth set ups however it is something Rovers need to address only problem is it cant be done overnight.

Netherton was brought through at Leeds and Welham was on Hull's acadamy books. |

You'll find Welham was on Hulls Scholarship but has been at Rovers since he was about 16 if i'm not mistaken, so has come through our youth structure not Hulls.
Didnt realise Netherton came through Leeds academy sorry! |

Welham played in Hulls U-18 side on a number of occasions, he also had a spell at Doncaster before he signed for Rovers. So i think he would have been older than 16 when he first signed for Rovers.
Much as i rate Welham, i don't think Rovers can claim he is solely a product of their acadamy structure. |
