Think Peter Green slotting in at hooker is the equivalent of Dane slotting in at stand off
But as you say its always an option.

Only just seen this, gutted wood can't play. I'd move QLT to 6, Finigan to FB and mills back on the wing like Ian said. If not bring in Jamie Cottle for FB he did an okay job earlier this season.

He's already played there this season, EB2.

It's times like these we could really use the versatility of someone like Calden Bravo.

Seems as though Batley fans aren't happy about the Eagles weekend off http://www.totalrl.com/forums/index.php ... try2250909

Another great win - solid defence in second half couple of soft tries but onward and upward! Finnigan is a revelation hope we keep him all season ! MOM!

That first half is as good as I've ever seem an eagles team play in all my time watching, and I'm not exaggerating. Really was brilliant. Second half we did why we had to do, defending down that slope is always tough and despite errors and an atrociously inept refereeing display we came out of that adversity with three more points. I thought Vinny was exceptional, Bradfords team must be awesome this year if he can't get in it. Menzie was Menzie as usual, but truly a great team performance.

I expect that we will now lose Hendo for about ten games after being put on report. The only negative of the day really.
