[Sir Jekyll Stocking]

What about when the two dual reg lads arrive?!!! They both looked pretty handy to me on Sunday. Don't forgetting the return of Mr. Flanagan sometime in late March either! As you say, Harrison is going to have plenty of selection headaches in 2011.

It's a nice headache for him to have! Really looking forward to GF return.

My selection for Sunday (fwiw)

1. Preece
2. Reittie
3. Walton
4. Maun
5. Brown
6. Mennell
7. Moore
8. Smith
9. Handforth
10. Toothill
11. Bretherton
12. Manning
13. Toohey / Lindsey

14. Lythes
15. Potter
16. Martin
17. Lindsey / Toohey

I don't think Hesketh is firing on all cylinders yet (possibly carrying injury?). Give him a rest.

Didn't Hesketh have an operation recently. I am not exactly sure but I think he was not picked for the original Dewsbury match. He seems to be a bit bigger than last season, so maybe he is a bit unfit and recovering from an injury. despite that I thought he was ok against Huddersfield.


I would go for

1. Preece
2. Rettie
3. Williams
4. Maun
5. Brown
6. Handforth
7. Moore
8. Smith
9. Lythes
10. Hesketh
11. Bretherton
12. Walton
13. Manning

14. Toohey
15. Toothill
16. Martin
17. Mennell

Rather pleasingly I am struggling to get everyone in, thinking particularly of Potter, who has had a really decent couple of games and Lindsey. Problems ahead selection wise for Karl Harrison I think

The one thing I'm certain of (and it'd be a big luxury) after watching the two games, is start with Handforth & Mennell and have Moore coming on as an impact player from the bench.

Personally I would keep Moore on as much as possible purely down to his kicking game, and rotate Mennell and Handforth. Still as you say, quite a luxury either way.
