vs. St Helens - Round 12 : Fri May 09, 2014 6:21 am  

After the stunning win against Warrington the Bulls face high flying St Helens. A few injuries have cropped up for the Bulls so will we be able to compete?

17. Lee Gaskell
5. Jamie Foster
34. Joe Arundel
21. Adam Henry
2. Elliot Kear
16. Danny Addy
7. Luke Gale
35. Antonio Kaufusi
9. Matt Diskin
14. Manase Manuokafoa
3. Adrian Purtell
33. Jay Pitts
13. Chev Walker

15. Adam Sidlow
19. Adam O'Brien
24. Alex Mellor
31. Sam Bates

I think Mellor and Bates deserve to keep their place. Both played well against a big Warrington pack!

Agree with that, best we could hope for really.

I love the phrase "a few injuries have cropped up". When have we not had a few injuries?
It's like we get one back and lose someone else for longer!

If George is fit I'd be dropping Henry for him.

edit: Just quickly verified that these are surnames and we haven't started playing Union.

I'm surprised that people are looking to move Gaskell from FB. He's playing some of his best stuff from that position so why change?

You are right he is playing some good stuff from FB... the only reason I would make the switch is because I think Kear can also be dangerous from FB and would prefer Addy in the pack(natural position) moving Gaskell back into what is his natural position.

I don't think it is the line-up Franny will go for but would be something I would like to see given a chance whilst BK is out.

I'd start with Sidlow, but otherwise this.

Have we really got 3 fit props? In one team? At the same time?
What's that all about?

Re: vs. St Helens - Round 12 : Fri May 09, 2014 10:05 am  

possibly 6 props - if you count Bates, Pitts & Walker
