Thought we’d moved to one thread for these to avoid saturation?
All that’s happened is they get posted in two threads rather than one! :lol: :lol:
The initial complaint was it made several threads on the same article. Here he has posted an article in the current thread without starting a new one.

Give the lad a chance.

Thought the emojis gave away the fact I was joking.
Callum knows I’m critically supportive.

Fair do’s just been hard reading some of the knockers he’s had.

Onto Eden, glad he’s extended his deal. Can’t wait to see him back in the side and some of those extreme finishes he pulls out the bag.

Showed what he can do and limped off......again!

Needs to get the hammy sorted before coming back or his 3 years could be money well wasted.

Play Jy. Didn't do too bad in his last outing against Catalan.

Why not give Lo a chance neither Jy or Sticks have been overly impressive, think Lo could do well bringing the ball out of yardage and it's about time we found out if he can hack it at SL level or not.

have to disagree on sticks. he has hardly put a foot wrong and only a winger of edens quality would have displaced him.
agree though we have to rest him now and make sure its fully healed and he's raring to go for the super 8's. I seem to remember Michael owen built his reputation on speed and then had it wrecked by chronic hamstring problems

Clare has done ok, safe under the ball and solid defensively. In attack he can only feed off the inside, and we have yet to get out of second gear. The pitches haven't suited our backs yet.

We saw glimpses on Sunday.
2 tries on the right, Webster and minikin, and a beauty by Eden.
So hopefully once this dam rain goes we will get to see the old cas of 2017.

My thoughts too. Clare does a fairly solid job and hasn't really put a foot wrong, but thats it - he doesn't have the ability to make a half chance into a scoring opportunity. Good squad player though and doesn't let us down when called upon.

Maybe he wouldn't have finished Eden's try, but the debate was about who plays with Eden absent.

Ok, i think jy has the skill needed to finish tries from nothing a lot better than clare but clare is safer under high ball n maybe slightly better defensively so DP has to choose between going defensive with clare or offensive with jy n so far hes chose clare.

for a short term till eden is back would not bother with clare or jy . I think I would go with wardle at centre and shenton on wing worked really well against hull shenton finished is two try's very well and would make that side very strong defensively . we have enough forwards to relies wardle to centre shenton as plenty off pace for wing and can finish well.
