Great squad for the first game, I've no idea how Peet will pick 4 to miss out on the team of 17.

I've picked 4, but I've changed my mind a few times.

Miski, KPP, ISA,, Partington.

Team of

Field, Marshall, Hardaker, Thorley, Bibby, Cust, Smith, Mago, Powell, Singleton, Bateman, Faz, Shorrocks.
Tommy, Smithies, Byrne, Ellis.

Isa for Byrne and KPP for Bibby perhaps?

No way KPP misses out, the kid is on fire

Field, Marshall, Hardaker, Thorley, Miski, Cust, Smith, Mago, Powell, Singleton, Bateman, Faz, Shorrocks.
Tommy, KPP, Isa, Ellis.

I wouldn’t be surprised to see Smith missing out of the 17 all together.

He’s done well pre-season but he’s coming off the back of a big operation and a season which looked like it battered his confidence.

A game away at Hull KR to start the season is bound to be a bruising encounter and i think Peet will be looking to ease him in both from a recovery and confidence point of view.

He’s going to be needed this season so i trust Peet and the assistants to handle him in the right way.
