Re: Hardaker
You know, this bringing on Escare as Leeds used to do with Burrows to run at tired defences I understand. Only problem is that Burrows was a halfback and Escare a full back. How much Escare could really run at a "tired" defence is anyone's guess

Yes I bloody know transfer fees do not count on the salary cap for those illiterates that need it explaining to them because they assume everyone is as thick as they are

Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

Re: Hardaker
We looked better at Salford when Zak was at right centre. Also when Hankinson was right 2nd row it looked a sizeable force. Escare offers pace and that unpredictability to opposition defences.
For too long our attack has been predictable going down our left side. The winning try v Salford was what can happen when we have a real attacking threat on our right.
Interesting to see how Lam goes tonight as at some point I'd have thought he'd want to try something out prior to the Wire cup game.

Didn’t he kick a concrete decorative ball & broke his foot?, just after he’d had his knee repaired again!

Morgan should be used as Rhinos used Burrows. Bring him on when the opposition is tired with 15minutes to go in each half. He has speed and could open defences up.
What position?
That way you suddenly end up with a dangerous right and left edge vs a tired defence
Fullback often receives the ball outwide as 3rd receiver so it isn't a like for like comparison.
