Can't see any reason to drop Penny, his defence has improved beyond belief since his first stint. As someone else said the wingers are feeding off scraps, the final pass is just not good enough at the moment...hopefully the timing will improve. Still 10 points from 10 and character by the bag full, that glass looks half full to me!

I don't understand this bashing of the wingers. They are getting little room because defenders are terrified of their pace. Watch Evans' second on Saturday. Richards only has eyes for Lineham, regardless of what the right decision is, and Evans scores a walk in. The week before Atkins gets a try by being one-on-one on the try line as the defence is being forced to stay wide.



Take the pace out of the team you can afford to stay a little tighter in defence and shift out if the ball goes wide, but the way it's going at the moment, the width creates the gaps for Hughes/Currie/Atkins/Evans etc score as they have in the last 2 weeks.

You don't change a winning team unless injury forces the change, certainly not for this game. Daryl Clark to come in for the injured Mitch Dodds only for me. King and Cox proved on Saturday that they can come off the bench and do a good job which will cover the prop forward issue. Either Clark starts or comes on from the bench interchanging with Dwyer. The other bench spot goes to Steph Ratchford. Changes will come soon enough when we get into the busy Easter period. I am sure TS will make a few changes for the Easter Monday game in Ull to try and keep the side fresh for what comes after.

i'd probably go with ratch/dwyer two props at the moment on the bench, as ratch does seem to be tackling alright in the forwards at the moment, unless someone can pop up with a vid showing him missing a load of tackles that wasn't obvious at the weekend.

I don't like it but, Chilly is getting a lot of game time meaning we could go with two props plus Dwyer and Ratchford on the bench. I wouldn't want TS to mess with a winning side (especially against one of the better sides in SL), so Clarke (if fit of course) into the 17 for Dodds.

if we're making changes, ratch drops out for an extra forward

We are absolutely mullered for injuries . Wire by 30.

This...

TS will want to keep a settled side as much as poss.. However the Easter weekend is almost upon us and I think he may make a few changes then.

I don't care about injuries, Daryl Powell always gives the impression that he could get Castleford Panthers Under 13's organised enough to give a SL team a run for their money*.



[size=50* Just to point out that I don't REALLY think that an Under 13's team could compete against a SL tem (except maybe for Wakefield) no matter who coaches them![/size

I don't have much hope. We are ravaged by injuries to key players in key positions. Likely to be without Dorn, Roberts, Millington, Holmes, Moors and of course Shenton. Monaghan also seems to be playing injured, as does McMeekan.

If you can stop the combination of Dorn and Solomona on our left edge you will win by 30. If you can't stop Gale and Solomona, Denny will probably end up with a couple of tries and you'll win by 20.

Yeah you're certainly suffering with injuries. We've been lucky with only Dodds, Wheeler, Bailey, Laithwaite, Harrison, Clark, Westwood and Toby King injured at the moment.

And Ben Evans,
