He might have earned a new deal but it's four coaches now that seem a little reluctant to have Balmforth as a regular in the XVII.

Think we can all see just how weak we are in the second row and centre
I also think we should move Pryce to six which is where i see him playing next season and try to find a quality full back with pace and who can tackle for next season.
This would allow Cust to move to nine and give us a running threat from dummy half
Chamberlain is just too bang average for the second row but we need to move Hardaker back to centre.
Will get some criticism for saying this but just dont see anything in Litten as a centre.
Now Fash is back i would play him and Ashworth in the second row until we get Cartwright back.Hardly exciting but offers a bit more go forward.

need to get Hardaker back at centre, Rapana wont play next week at Leigh,  Kirby to come in to cover second row with Fash and Chamberlain.

Will be Briscoe at centre I reckon be more or less same 17 I would imagine 

I think we need to give Litten a chance. He's done OK since coming back from serious injury. Showed that bit of magic albeit with a touch of fortune at Warrington and a great pass to Martin at Magic.


He's got a lot to learn but has vastly experienced players like Briscoe, Hardaker and Rapana to mentor him. He's got a decent frame on him, actually bigger than Hardaker.


People wrote Jez Litten off and letting him go came back to bite us on the backside.
