Some difficult decisions to have, but it’s a nice position to be in. I have a feeling Trueman will slot back in to 6 with Lino going back to 7. They are a lot better defensive duo at 6/7 than Russell and Lino. 

Their biggest threat was Hanley I thought, he looked dangerous on that edge and ran a stunning line to score.  Thought Scott did a great job on Tesi Niu, who is an absolute unit. I can’t see them competing at 50% again so we’re in for a battle again.  Atoni in for Cozza for me too. 


If Matty Russell doesn’t play as it looked like he was struggling at the end I’d like see what Neil tchamambe have a pop on the wing. Being going well in the reserves, although didn’t play today, Walmsley did. 

Totally agree with that! It appears that who ever pulls the shirt on will bust a gut and not let the team down. Prime example is Cozza. He has stepped in a few times in big games and done a good job fitting in seemlessly. 

No room for Trueman then.

I expect a much stronger challenge from Leigh this time around, they won't need much motivation to come to BV and get the win.
It would be nice to get a win at home though, so our lads should be motivated by that too! 

If we do manage a win though, it would be even nicer if their coach Lam came out and gave us some credit this week as there wasn't much coming our way last week.

Think the key to the win on Friday was our completion rate that I believe was 88 % , Leigh completed at around 65 % . It looked on Friday that we had learned to be a bit more conservative with our approach. We saw our centres stepping back inside rather that pass to wingers when there was nothing on and putting them in danger of getting shoved into touch.  We saw a more direct game approach from our marvellous pack that in my opinion is a match for any pack in the League, we ground out sets, we respected possession, we didn't force silly offloads. In fact our first 20 minutes was the best 20 minutes we have played. Contrast this to the losses against KR, Saints and Hull where we completed sets at 60 odd % . 
SL matches are a war of attrition, a battle for territory and demand patience, we were patient on Friday ( except for the silly Ciaus offload ) , we were tough and won the battle for territory and the attrition war. In short we were magnificent. 
Plenty to work on : left edge defence struggled against a brilliant slick Leigh right edge attack. Think as Pratt and Ollie Russel play more together that will improve. Kicking game was better but its those kicks from say half way which need to be deeper. Plus the bench was wrong on Friday : decide on your best four props for that match put two on the bench with a hooker and a second row, the three bench props on Friday meant in my opinion that we couldn't get the best use of the bench, I know that Storton and Nikatimo are injured so doesn't help and Croft may have been injured so that could very well be the reason. 
Don't think I have ever been happier as a Trinity fan, the effort from our boys is fabulous to see.
