I think we need to stick with the basis of lads which have played a heavy part in the recent string of results.



1 - Mcnally

2 - Pownall

3 - Litler

4 - Gardner

5 - Maden

6 - Riddy

7 - Duffy

8 - Parker

9 - Beswick

10 - Thornley

11- Goulden

12 - Laithwaite

13 - Taylor (if fit)/Briscoe



14 - Gallagher

15 - Hopkins

16 - Brierly

17 - Henderson (Playing as a reserve back row)

I'd have something similar to that,



1. McNally

2. McGilvary

3. Littler

4. Gardner

5. Maden

6. Ridyard

7. Brierly

8. Parker

9. Duffy

10. Ostick

11. Henderson/Pref laithwaite if available

12. Goulden

13. Beswick



14. Nicholson

15. Hopkins

16. Gallagher

17. Taylor (ease him back, but heard he needs surgery perhaps?)or Henderson/Laithwaite.



Dropped pownall through no fault of his own, i just like the work deano gets through, and feel him and mado will take a lot of work off the forwards on a wet, energy sapping pitch. Gone for mobility in the back row, and nicholson as the impact player at 9, as i reckon most attacking play tonight will come from just off the ruck.

How underrated is Briscoe. One of the first names on the teamsheet for me now, he's solid. I just can't see how people would will be willing to start Henderson/Thornely before a Hopkins or a Briscoe. Bonkers.



1. McNally

2. Maden

3. Littler

4. Gardner

5. Pownall

11. Laithwaite/Briscoe

12. Goulden

13. Gallagher



14. Brierley

15. Hopkins

16. Nico

17. Briscoe/Laithwaite

Wouldnt have both Brierly AND Nico on the bench would rather have an extra forward also Gallagher at loose will not happen.

so I take it Nash is out injured?

14. Nicholson

15. Hopkins

16. Gallagher

17. Brierley

Not sure. Dont think hes been playing to well

Interesting to note that nobody so far has listed Nash or Spencer in their squads.
