He won’t sadly. Refusing to play unless 100%, when is any professional Rugby League player ever 100%. Should have been moved on not given a 4 year deal.

Any proof of this allegation?

No reason not to believe it where I’ve got it from. Missed more pre season sessions than any other player that wasn’t coming off a long term injury.

Ellam liked my comment and insinuated similar about desire so I guess he’s heard similar.

He'll know he's on his way at the end of the season and will be retiring anyway so he'll probably toss it off all season if it's true.

Intrigued who was the other young player besides Martin who had a solid game vs Saints last season?

And why doesnt he start in any fans starting line ups

He may of been injured recently, but baffles me why hes not mentioned.

Blood some youngsters eh we may start seeing some improvement in the long term

He picked up a calf injury just before the Wigan game. Not sure why they are saying its unspecified.

If he doesn't get a new deal he won't be retiring.

No idea, past caring to be honest if/when he does come back it’s not as if he’s going to string any games together.

We've appealed Saos ban but nobody else's.
Probably ban him for 5 games now for having the temerity to question it.

I could name half a dozen lineups and not be particularly happy with any of them. However, I think what I'd like to see is:

Walker
Martin
Sutcliffe
Litten
McIntosh
Hoy
Smith
J Brown
F Brown
Ashworth
Okunbor
Scott
Gardiner

Diakhate
Staveley (As a prop)
Jebson
Balmforth

I don't particularly like Litten at centre, but he didn't do too much wrong against Rovers and I'd rather use Scott in the pack tbh. Also, I know Lane will play, but I've just had enough of him. I'd rather see the youngsters get a shot.

My expectations for this season were fairly modest but even I didn't expect to be writing off fixtures by round 2.

Sorry but that is a shocking team. It could be a cricket score. Think Smiths recruitment has been terrible even with all fit it’s not looking good.
