With half a team!

Ratch is back!

Strongest possible side next week please. That just shows what a strong squad we have at the moment.

when all fit who will miss out...

Only one overseas player

Very impressed with todays result.

Couldn't get the commentary at work and then had to collect my car which meant getting updates on the blackberry whilst driving (safely)

Fans getting giddy early on about Hudds and Catalans and it turns out being the same two as usual.

This constantly resting players thing seems to be working so far. I must admit I was a bit concerned when I saw the selection today though. Second in the league, just one point behind the Pies.

Catalan will overtake us if they win their game in hand.

I doubt we'll ever have a fully fit squad - there will always be someone injured given the nature of the game.
The thing that has impressed me has been how the club have developed the youngsters over the last few years and now they're really pushing for places - be it Currie, Dwyer, Evans or Williams.
TS's 'rotation' policy works because of the strength in depth but he doesn't underestimate the opposition.
He has confidence that whatever team he puts out can win, so with all due respect to Wakey, the team for them is/was different to the team for Catalan.
It's a particular benefit for the ''older players'' who get much needed rest.
It's a difficult blance but he seems to manage it.

Good win.

But I do worry about the strength of the teams in this league and the comp as a whole. Its becoming very predictable and somewhat boring.

The RFL need to ditch the license system and possibly change how the cap works because they are clearly not working.

2nd in the League with Wigan, The Giants, Catalan, Hull & Leeds all to play at the HJ
