Cooper Joins immediately

[Stanfax]

Absolutely. Poor start but pretty lively afterwards.

Anyone got the overall forward stats?

Cooper and Havard starting together surely must be an upcoming plan to get us on the front foot.

Hopefully Cooper coming gives Ellis a kick up the backside because he looks like he can’t break through a wet paper bag.

Ellis meters surprises me. Maybe I was a little harsh but never seems to make runs that stand out.

I think the consistent metre gainers and best props we have are Harvard and cooper.
So here’s a question, would have them two paired together or with others?
I’m not sure which would be best but I’d maybe have Harvard with Mago, and Ellis with cooper

Start with Harvard with Mago and bring Ellis, Cooper and Byrne on from the bench

That’s because a lot of those stats are guessed at. When we played Salford away the other week sky and the super league website had a 50 metre difference between each other on French meters. I’m convinced they just give up and generate a number. Ellis made 70 meters max

I’d go with that medlocke. Byrne interchanging with Mago as his fitness doesn’t seem great

[lucky 13]

I always think Ellis makes decent yards good solid player and I think there's more in him with a certain amount of something to prove. I do think we should role with a full out big bench and play to a strength. When we have Faz Batty and Smithies that gives us cover for centre and second row ... Ellis can always go 13 or Havard. Cust, French and Field also gives us cover for half fullback and hooker. Not sure anyone could match Havard, Byrne, Ellis, Singo Cooper and Mago down the middle on rotation.
I also think bust teams there and then it creates space for our halves and three very dangerous players out back in Marshy Bev and Jai. We have to play to our strengths. KPP also adds to that from centre.
