I've heard Clubb has had a falling out with Lam, along with Clarke and Bullock who all say they should be playing.
Its funny but a starting front row of Bullock, Powell and Singleton, with Clarke and Clubb on the bench to rotate sound great and could provide a good base for the backs.
But what do I know.

Bullock and Singleton's form towards the back end of the season was a key contributor to the late surge we made.

that sort of backs up a response i got from Josie and them all wanting to play. It just makes no sense that we have 4 seasoned props and they arent playing. we are losing games and burning out our young players at the same time. whilst i dont think we would get all 4 playing at the same time, we should see minimum of 2, if not 3 every game with the young lads

It's scary when you think We have 4 props who even if not the best should be rather fresh.
I really hope it isn't a falling out issue as if it is surely someone higher up should be stepping in.

Not that I’m doubting you, but we keep being told Lam isn’t picking the team so surely they’re falling out with the wrong person?

Harry Smith is the only player that Lams been told from above they want him to start every game, I think I posted about that when the rumours of lam not picking the team first popped up.

I have no inside information at all, merely reading posted comments here.
It's interesting the three players who have supposedly had conflict with Lam,
Bullock - Warrington bound?
Clubb - Retiring
Clark - Offered to clubs and constantly out of favour
Harmony within the whole squad seems to be filtering away week in week out of late, sadly!

They have given Bateman a 1 match ban...... are they having an absolute laugh.
Atleast my anger at the match has been redirected.

I really hope if Lam is removed this season, one day, he candidly reveals what his tenure was like under the constraints of the club leadership.
Whether is be Harry Smith or Darren Lockyer, how can any club dictate to your head coach who plays and who doesn't?
If this is common knowledge among players, surely this undermines Lams position?
It's going be fascinating if Peet takes over with a capital F!

KPP looked completely done in Friday it’s time to rest him,so I’ll expect him to be the first name on the team sheet.
Given the grubby nature of Isa swinging arm into Welsby I’d be amazed if he gets away without a lengthy ban so no wonder he’s not named
He was completely “done” at HKR poor lad!
KPP, as well as the others need a rest or if necessary play one or two off the bench for the next few matches
