So Anderson confirmed that he will be available for the Leeds game! Would you bring him back in or keep this winning team the same? Big decision for our coaching team!

Shame he wasn't ready to play v Hull

I'd not want him in the semis out of match condition

Barring injuries there is no reason to change the team, They are playing some of the best Football they have played all season, and they are winning. Even last night when they were not at their best and went behind at one point, they still threw the ball about, scored some nice try's and came up with the goods.

I have nothing against Ferris at all, It's a valid argument to say you should always play your top players in the big important games , Ferris has missed a lot of Rugby this time and to be honest he wasn't particularly great last time he came back. Wardle in the centre would not be weakening the side, though Conner is playing well, The point is would Ferris be any improvement on Wardle in the second row, or would Lawrence get the chop just when he is improving his go forward to compliment his great defence.

Big decision Mr Anderson, you could be proved right or wrong whichever way you go. This is the biggest game of our season, We beat Leeds and we have that all important home draw for the semi, Which ever team we get it will be a titanic struggle, they are all great sides, and the semi's are always said to be harder than the final. Win it and you have a 50/50 chance of lifting the greatest prise in the game.

Any Silverware is nice to win, I'd love to see K Davy lift some more, but I agree with DG this is the one that matters, Do whatever it takes to beat Leeds, Myself I would go with the same side but I'm not Mr Anderson

wardle back to centre, ferres in 2nd row

unless they play him at loose

shame he didnt get the hull game under his belt though


big decision for anderson to make

maybe have him on the bench but as i said previously it would be a massive call to disrupt a winning team to accommodate a guy who has had very little (positive)impact on the season.

yes he's a class act on his day but it would be unfair to drop any of the guys who have done the business for us the last few weeks.

be harsh on connor that?
i thought he was superb last night, on what grounds would you drop him?

Presumably because he has a bigger rep than Conner.

Giving this a lot of thought

Id say give Wardle and Taai a rest
Brett at 2nd row for Wardle and Bailey at 13 for Taai

Make sure that then Ferres has some match fitness back and Wardle and Taai are fully refreshed for the semi final - which is far far more important than the final 8s game.

Not sure I agree with that. The last 8's game is massive, win and we get a semi at home, and certainly would not swap Taai for Bailey. They don't need a rest there's only 3 games to play before they get a big rest.

Not for me, can't see a place for him just now... Wardle is playing well at 2nd row, Connor & Murphy are starting to gel and ukuma is on fire ....he will have to be patient for me, like others have said he hasn't had such a good season and would be wholly unfair on the guys who have got us into this position now.

He has to play. IF he doesn't and one of the back rowers gets injured then we will have to play Ferres in the semi-final with no games for ages under his belt. Rest one of the other lads for Leeds and then we have even more competition for places in the final two games.

I keep trying to emphasise this to people! To our club a home semi final is MASSIVE! It could be the difference between giving Koppy and Jerry a contract or not!
