Strange that Houghton was nearly fit last week (According to Radford and Pearson), but still not right this week.



Imagine that squad minus Taylor and Manu for the week after.

RFL might as well scrap the naming of squads as it's a totally pointless exercise.

Agreed.



Would it be worth putting Griffin on the bench and use him in the forwards? Just a thought

Not sure his defence is good enough for the backrow, Carlos could do a spell there though, but the backs for once look strong and I don't see the need to be moving people about, time to trust in the young kids, they haven't let us down so far.

Agree re the backs as think we look much better with Connor in the backs than Griffin, just think his size and ability to gain metres might be an option for him to be on the bench to be used as a forward.

I would consider him on the wing, big lad more pace than micheals and help the forwards out,

Definitely not as fast as Michaels.

I agree with Chris might be worth having him on the bench and playing him as a second row with a view to the Widnes game as we look to be really lightweight for that game and he has something to prove.

Wont get back into the centre on current form of Connor and Tuimavave.

Griffin is faster than Michaels, I've never seen Michaels score a try or make a 50 metre break without getting caught whilst Griffin has.



Saying that thought Michaels had a decent game on Sunday including a massive part in the winning try, so keeps his place for now.

Worrying that houghton still isn't back. Let's hope he hasn't done any more damage in training this week. They can't expect washbrook to play the full 80 again so need someone to spell him. I can see us losing this one given the massive effort on sunday and the injuries and suspension we have
