Kearney and Sammut is a much better half back combination than Sammut and Addy. It's whether we sacrifice the half back pairing and bring Addy into scrum half, or move Blythe to the wing and stick Whitehead at centre, to keep the half back pairing the same.

Also, just seen that Cas have signed Gareth O'Brien on a 1 month loan deal to cover for Rangi Chase.

I did wonder if we should've been in for O'Brien with our lack of cover at halfback.



I'd be surprised if we get Pryce on loan for Friday, more likely it'll be Blythe on the wing and Walker in the centre.

Franny asked me if I'd play, but sadly I'll be the worse for wear after attending a wake.

What? Thought he was just concussed? That's a bit of a nightmare.

If the dual reg with Dewsbury works both ways, I would ask Karl Pryce to come back for a week or two in a shot.



We all complained about his short comings,but think hard, does elliot kear offer anything any better.



Karl might not be the hardest worker but his try scoring record his as good as anybody in the league



To do that over so many games is not a fluke

No, he picked up a leg injury in the same tackle.

Just noticed it's the same 19 man squad as last week with Platt included. He's being given time to show he's fit. If not fit it will mean either Murphy or Donaldson in the 17.

I watched Donaldson play for Dewsbury last week and was impressed. Played a full 80 minutes and he must have made over 35 tackles.

By the way,in the preview on the Bulls website I notice that Foster is averaging almost 15 points a game over his 50 game career. That figure includes 40 tries in 50 games.

Hope Platt is fit, then we can keep the same shape and not have to move players around too much. Cas got any injuries or suspensions, other than Chase?

Keith Mason still not fit. Kirk Dixon hasn't played yet but is in the squad this weekend. Gareth O'Brian is drafted in to replace the suspended Chase.

One final post from me before I disappear again:



This will be only Steve Ganson's second Super League appearance at Odsal in over four years (work that one out).



Right, see you all on Saturday! #OdsalBounce #LetsRockTheHouseDown

Surely it can't be connected with us being on TV Mick?



I know a lot of Bulls fans detest Ganson after Millennium Tragic. but in fairness Ganson was guided by the Clown. And, unlike the Clown, Ganson came out and acknowledged the screw-up. I always reckoned it took a big man to do that.



I must admit, I find it hard to hold a grudge against Ganson in the light of the above. And IMO he IS light years ahead of the rest of our supposed professional referees.
