I hope 20 has been left vacant because we are signing another player...........
it's probably just the number Danny Sculthorpe would have had if he wasn't loan out to cas

Think Millwards new start involves number changes as well as the heart of the team disappearing. NO i did notice calderwood in his leeds shirt, obviously the whole squad hasnt been together yet. Think its harsh giving hock a starting number over tickle, since he hasnt played all season!
It's pretty clear from how the numbers how IM sees his starting 13 - seu seu is obviously behind Feca in the pecking order. Agree with you entirely over the Hock squad number thing - Tickle should have got the number and Hock should have been 15, even if Danny will not be first choice if they are both fit.

Does anyone else feel that Danny Tickle has been a bit hard done by? Surely our best and most consistent player of last season should have deserved a first team shirt in the second row before Fletcher and Hock?
I totally agree. How he hasn't retained his jersey on the standout performances from last season is unbelievable. Undeniably our most consitent players all year and never failed to impress. I think he has been really hard done by.

I'm not so sure myself. If IM was goming to start with Tickle he would have the number 12 shirt on his back from the off. I am sure he will play a big part in the squad, but i still think he should have been the first man to be given a starting shirt on last seasons performance. I think you will find that Fletcher and Hock will be his first choice second row.

Has anyone thought who will be the goal kicker if Tickle is not selected in the initial strating line-up?

I also have noticed that number 20 hasn't been allocated to any player, can't help wondering if another signing is to be made before the start of the season even if Mr Millward says he's not allowed anymore shopping money.

Tickle will play in ever game, maybe from the bench. Fletcher is a right sided runner as is Danny T. Hock is a left sided runner. O'Loughlin is a right sided runner. I would suggest Tickle and Fletcher will interchange. To have 3 right sided backrowers would unbalance the team.
You should be happy that we may have people like Danny on the bench
Colbon seems to be missing from established players. McClorrum and Coyle are young. There are plenty of centres from the academy and I would suggest if Brownie does not buck up they may overtake him in the pecking order.

Do you actually read anything Superleague
The players numberred 1-13 are IM's initially preferred starting line up and mark my words Hock and Fletcher will not interchange. Hock will play a full 80 unless Handen interchanges with him.
Team balance is everything
