Halsall maybe given another chance on the wing - had a decent run against Saints and his defence seemed to stand up well.
Big worry is the props, what's Lam's thinking only picking 3 v the big Wolves pack, and with more rain forecast for Friday. Beginning to get very concerned over his tactics !
Your guess is as good as mine! Unless the props missing are injured or have Covid, could be a big mis judgment by Lam similar to the Leeds game.
If the club stated who had coronavirus then we would know the answer to the second part!

can anyone tell me why footballers who test positive are named but in Rugby it is a secret and we have to guess who it is.
Do you think your Doctor should publish your medical records?

Why do we need to know who has the covid virus, what purpose does it serve?

So we can judge them, of course!

Exactly! Back to the original post I made.

The reason we as fans want to know who has covid and who hasn't is so we know who is unavailable and who has been left out of the squad by the coach for other reasons

The obvious answer as to why it would be better to know who has covid is so that we can gauge the quality of our team against the opposition,nothing worse than the match being televised and a number of your best players are missing.l hope that this does clear up this point as some on here seem not bothered what team we put out.

When the squad is released you can gauge it can’t you? Knowing who has COVID, who has injury and who is out of favour doesn’t have any bearing. The squad is the squad and that’s the quality available for the match.

On the counter argument go to the rumour mill and someone's posted that there's been a "falling out" between Lam and Flower hence why Flower isn't being selected
If it was announced he was one of the players told to self isolate that would put that rumour to bed - yes or no?
As for squad announcements, well Lam is his own man and it is fair to say that some of his squad selections have been bizarre to say the least during his tenure

So because there’s a rumour about Lam and Flower falling out, which is private, the club should announce who has COVID ?
