No room for Scott Spaven in your line up or sub.Think Ben Jones will start at eight,Singleton at sub.

I've loads of time for Rob Spicer but, on current form, I'm surprised that he is an automatic unquestioned inclusion in everyone's starting line-up. I think he's been distinctly off the boil this season and his tackling and, in particular, positional play, isn't what we had come to expect from him. I wouldn't be at all surprised to learn that he is still carrying some sort of injury.
Believe what you see, don't see what you believe.

Think Spicer is still trying to get back to full fitness,with Blake back again,they will be someone unhappy in that position .

Sill think that Blake is a shadow of the player he was before last years injury - he seems to have turned into Mike Emmet.

Would agree with BSJ regarding Rob Spicer. He probably is still trying to regain fitness but he may find it on Sunday. I also agree with the comment regarding Spaven, I dont think he brings much to the table. Think Mike Wainwright did enough coming off the bench against Hunslet to give him the number 2 spot. I think playing Liam Hood at 7 would be a good move. He has the pace,craft and distribution skills to play in that position.

My line up would be.

1.Craven
2.Wainwright
3.Esders
4.Faal
5.Buchanan
6.Walker
7.Hood
8.Jones
9.Blake
10.Crossley
11.Barker
12.Spicer
13.Tonks

14.Nicholson
15.Singleton
16.Flanagan
17.Southernwood

I think this will be close, but based on results so far I think we will probably lose by maybe 6.Hope I'm wrong.

Interesting comment about Hood at 7

In my opinion all halfbacks are interchangable anyway
When I want your opinion, I will remove the gaffer tape

Wainwright looked very good when appearing late against hunslet, but think his defence is too weak, particulalry against the high ball. I prefer Greg Scott. I would also stick with jones to start and would give Cain Southernwood a start. still not sure about Rob Spicer, but let's give him another week
