Hope they're this bad next weekend. Totally different team away from home, always look like they could ship tries for fun.

The new rules certainly don’t suit the likes of Moa, Casty, Bousquet and Kasiano.

Is Sam Tomkins still banned for next week ? And I think Micky Mac will be out next week with failing the head test

I certainly hope the guys have retained their fitness, because players are getting found out with this new ruling.
The cats getting a stint in first and nearly a week rest I feel will benefit them more than us. They will have gotten the feel for the new intensity.

Yes, still banned. Not that he ever has a good game against us.

Aye, Think he’ll start with Eden and maybe bring Hodgson on last 20/30 minutes! He’s fast and his feet against a tired Catalans team back end of the game would cause a threat, an ideal time to put such a young lad in? Wealth of options for wing if we stay injury free this week. Tony

I think we’ll start with Clare at fullback, he’s performed well so far this season, hopefully new rules will suit us against a big Catalans side!

The only Catalans player who looked to have any life in his was Mourgue.

Hodgeson
Olpherts
Peanut
Shenton
Clare
Trueman
Richardson
Watts
McShane
Millington
Blair
Mckmeeken
Massey

Milner
Smith
Holmes
Cook?

I doubt that’s how it will be. But that’s how I’d go. A team with Eden or Clare at fullback is not good enough to win superleague imo.

But a team with an untried 17 year old, in such a weird season, at full back is???

Anybody thinking Hodgson will be starting full back next week is delusional.

Powell, since he's been at Cas has always relied on experienced players unless his back has been to the wall.

Look at his track record.

This is a big game for us.

No place for experiments .!!!!!!!

One mistake from Eden and he will crumble, Evalds needs to be brought in!

under the new "6 again" rule and having seen hodgson. depending on how things are going i'd think about putting him to dummy half for the last 20 minutes. he would destroy a tiring team.

Maybe not. But it is a maybe. He might end up being the answer. But I don’t believe Eden or Clare at fullback will be.

I think iwould go with an untried Hodgson before Eden he as a good turn of foot but to his downfall he is suspect to the high ball and too many brain farts
