Same squad,so possibly same 17..have to defend better and kick better in general play.Eastmond doesn't seem to like the big 2 units from Dewsbury
but our defence was better early doors with them in the team and do Jobe and the 2 kids have any attacking threat ?

I haven't a clue what to expect performance wise from us we can go from conceding really soft tries to scoring long range ones which look great. I watched the Fev game against Hunslet and i think it is fair to say they got the 2 points without playing very well so i would expect a improvement from them come friday night. Team wise for us if Crooks is fit i would pick him instead of Graham bring Joufrett back in the halfs put Woody to fullback Nofoaluma on the wing give Salty the night off and if fit Dixon would be in my pack too.

Crooks not in squad but what on earth did Brad Graham do wrong to get dropped,particularly from the centres..?

Would agree 100% with those comments- don't really expect Crookes to be fit this week, and sadly don't also expect any of the other perfectly sensible suggestions to be acted on. Also have no idea why we signed Halafihi - a very average hooker, yet to feature in a squad, and who will surely only get a game in the event of injury to O'brien or Inman.

Crooks is in the squad and it is just a guess by me that i think he is fit to play.


As for Brad graham i was referring to Charlie being left out this week and i was  picking a side from the announced squad for this week's game and taking performances from the Widnes game inter account. So i thought both Tibbs and Johnson should be kept together on the left and put Crooks back in on our right side which is our weak side. I would have no problem with Brad Graham being on the bench for friday.

I have no idea why we signed Halafihi either it is clear to me that we need to strengthen at centre and prop first and foremost but we seem to be signing in every other position other than those.
