That said. Great chance for Cas now to gather some momentum and maybe a few get in the eye come end of season.
Maybe Percival and Ratchford in the centre??

Maybe mate but same applies. I'm not having Ratchford as an international centre. Pick 2 proper centres it ain't hard. Maybe Connor might play there ? Widdop and Williams halves lomax full back?

That said there's only 1 result I'm interested in that weekend 8)

Don't think Ratchford will play centre. I'm seeing him as FB with Percival and Bateman as centres. Widdop and Connor as halves, though I'm firmly expecting it to be Williams.

When I saw the team I jumped for joy
No cas players and 3 Wigan players.
My work mate thought I was nuts.

Ryan Hall has continued to be an outstanding international winger. He's safe, carries well from the back, and a strong finisher.

That’s why unless our philosophy changes we will never bridge the gap between our Antipodean opponents.

Do the Aussies/NZ have a coach 12 thousand miles away relying on coaches at the lower end of the division to advise them? Do they go on past performances or have no problem in blooding youngsters or form players who are ripping it up in the NRL?

Until we adopt the same mindset and realise that some of our more ‘experienced’ players are no longer playing at clubs at the top of our league and are no longer playing games with the same intensity as they have been in recent seasons then maybe we could move forwards.

Ryan Hall is an excellent wing man. It's as simple as that.

I wouldn't say excellent anymore. Maybe in past. Should of put Charnley in for me. Hate the kid but he is one of best we have.

Hall as been a fantastic player but how old will he be come the next world cup? Shouldn't we be looking to bring younger lads through who will be in their prime come 2021.

Which is England's probing playing purple out of position. Ratchford and Bateman aren't centres but they keep getting games somewhere in the team.

Shaul is the next fullback option at the moment, Percival the best centre.

Every time I think hall is passed it, he does something amazing. A prop with speed and can jump. He's still a shoe in for me.
