Did anyone get a good look at the tackle for which Flower was put on report?

What was wrong with Smithies?

One point I maybe miss read was why was Bibby constantly flying out in defence? Marshall shone last week with Hank inside but he appeared to struggle more today alongside Bibby.
Another point I'd make, is why was bibby even playing, what is Lam doing to Hank?
He had a good game (1st this season) at H'field then dropped out???

I find it really strange with the team selection after last weeks performance, if he is talking about rotation of players I'm confused, why is Hankinson not getting a fair crack?

Because Lam didnt drop bibby last week, he had a bereavement.

Hankinson and bibby are like picking between a green and red grape.... both are solid Centres one has pace the other can kick.
These are two reasons not to trust people.
1. We don't know them.
2. We do know them.

Hankinson played well v Huddersfield, Bibby was terrible against HKR.
Surely Lam will select Hankinson for the Salford game.
Same could be said for Tommy, poor game yesterday and hooked after kicking out on the full being replaced by Smith who was excellent. The respective kicking games between TL and Smith is like night and day!
Again, will Lam select Smith to start over TL?

2 match penalty notice for Flower

Interestingly, Sam Tomkins has also picked up a 2 week ban - I'm assuming that means he won't be playing against us on the 22nd?

He came in late from the side and very low with quite a bit of force.
It didn't look good from where we were sat.
“Usually the fans that abuse players like Sam have never done anything of any note themselves. They’re nobodies, whose greatest claim to fame is abusing someone who has, and these so-called ‘Eddie the Experts’ pretend to their mates that they have."

The question for me is why did the club give Hankinson the no 3 shirt?

He did well in the majority of his limited appearances last year maybe the no 3 is justified as well as a new contract

Yet for some reason Lam isnt giving Hank the much needed game time, yet he is rotating or resting others, Just find it strange as to what is going on

Can only assume that Hastings is having an influence when it comes to having Bibby outside him maybe?
