Todays team

Post by TRICKY DICKY »

From the 18 man squad i take it that brown will be at scrum half and melling at stand off with coyle on the bench.

This team is weaker than the one that played at hull.

Yeah, but I prefer that to risking Newton and Orr when not fully fit. I still think Coyle should start at 6 though - he's a specialist stand-off, Melling isn't, and we looked better against Hull when Coyle came on. And I still think Colborn should start on the wing with aspi in his proper centre position, and Wild at loose forward.

My line up from that squad would be
Rads
Dallas
Vaeliki
Aspi
Colborn

Coyle
Brown

Seuseu
Godwin
Guisset
Hansen
Tickle
Wild

Beswick
Allen
Melling
Hargreaves

Cant argue geoff, but i dont think our coach will see it that way.

This is the perfect game to give that combination a go.

Just cant see it happening.

I thought coyle was fantastic today and the mom award was fully justified.

He is going to be a decent scrum half in years to come.
