He does need to work on his conditioning. He wasn't in good shape against Warrington or Hull. Hard work is what Gary needs, not wrapping in cotton wool.

He has worked hard on it, and seems all the better for it. We'll know for sure by next Friday, it'll be a record if he's recovered from an injury in just a week.

Obviously it's wise not to risk a player with his record of injuries.
I'm sure he will play plenty of games this year.
Interesting battle between him and lance for a spot in the team.
Wouldn't mind seeing wheeler come in as a replacement hooker.

If Wheeler is fit it should be Lance as replacement hooker.

Just be interested to see what wheeler could do there that's all.
I hate watching lance at hooker. Just looks so slow with his passing etc..
I didn't want to see lance play again with some of his lacklustre performances but he didn't look bad the other night, but I don't think any player would have looked bad with that team performance.
For someone who has been left out so much you would hope he would play his best rugby whenever he gets a chance. We shall see.
