Don't know, but he was our best forward by a mile against Widnes, he's worth his weight in gold, so underrated !!.... we are going to miss him massively in this game.
Also mystified why Cook has been left out. Not the most skillful, but wholehearted trier, gives 100% when ever he plays.
Could not fault HIS efforts in the debacle that was Old Trafford - yet I am fearful that Foster will again be in the front row which I hope to high heaven he is not - he seems to do no wrong in DP's estimation.
We have to start and beast the Hull pack which we cannot do with makeweight SR's playing up front

It would be so nice if we'd strengthened with a really powerful prop. Perhaps green will change his attitude.

This full back position is really doing my head in.

Mainly because Ellis isn't as good as Roberts at 6 by any stretch. Neither is Roberts any kop at FB.

id love Jy to really grasp this chance.

I'd rather see Eden at 1 and Roberts in the halves.

For me Ellis and Green/Foster to miss out.

Julian Moors as been breaking no pots , last match V Widnes the lad hardly broke a tackle, lets hope this week he returns to the form he showed early last season

That's what happens when you're asked to play prop and are used basically as a battering ram. He has had all the creativity kicked out of him by the looks of things. Same with Jesse, he was on fire outwide in the early part of the season. Got put to prop and he looked and still does look burnt out. Samoan's are flair players.

Given the comments by DP this week about Roberts and what was said at the meeting, there's absolutely no way he will deviate from that IMO at this moment in time.

I think give Ellis a decent run he will be a lot more consistent and make less errors than Roberts don’t get me wrong the 1 game in 6 when Roberts fire is world level problem is it is few and far between ask your selfs honestly when was the last game where Benny really shon through?

I see Benny is shafted to fullback and for that has become the hated player.. move over Massey!

No hatred honey opinion if Benny could give his 100% and have a consistent game week in week out like I say he’d be up there with the best but I honestly think he drifts in and out and the performance in the super 8s he didn’t really set the world alight for me where as I think Ellis has a more consistent game for me. One of the whole problems for me is for us to take a little bit of control off Gale and share the work more would make us better imo. Just cause someone has an opinion doesn’t make it hatred

Benny of the bench hooker or stand off is were he plays best, the jury is still out on his ability to be a class full back , Daryl as forgot more than i know about the game, he says the lad as every thing about him to play at full back lets hope he shows it this week with a MOM performance

Will say it again

last year our most effective weapon was Milo/Moors off of the bench.

Moors and Milo are devastating against tiring opposition - why have we gone away from this?

Jesse is a SR NOT a Prop.....wasted playing prop get him running wide like the start of last season or coming of off the bench to replace Holmes

Cook and Green starting props

I think the changes made by DP this season has the balance of the team wrong and it has shown in performance

It just feels wrong.

also no mcmeeken he needs to be given a shock by getting dropped

No rain forecast between now and kick off. Bright and breezy on Saturday so the pitch will less of the quagmire than it was against Widnes. Should help to make it a better spectacle.

They also seemed to be confused with their squad with Minichiello and Manu missing originally. Could be a sign and guessing games but I’d put them 50/50 too.
