The ptb's are a farce.

It seems that rather than speed the game up and make it more exciting the powers that be want to slow it down to the slowest referee's pace. 

Just as they did when they took the tap penalty out!!!

Any news on Lewis Hall's injury?

So we have JJ, Hall and Owens long term out injured. Ince and Sumner will be back soon to play. Need a hooker but probably try Lyons interchange with Fozzard and with Fleming going fullback he will play Max Roberts in the centre. This proves we need some more depth in the squad and a centre is a must and Doolan to be signed for the interchange hooker.

I see Zac Bardsley Rowe gone to London on loan for a few weeks. I feel we will manage for now but any further injuries we will need some dual or loan players. Sumner and Ince are back but we are fine with Butt and Williams at the moment. A shame they can not play centre or fullback.

If it came to it to get Ince in the team ...butt has played FB before in the past ...not that it'll ever come to it as Owens can drop as many as he likes because he's untouchable...god knows what cam brown is thinking ...he's the only one that's fit and not been given any mins since the wire game ..

Over rated is Jack Owens he is too slow and drops a lot of balls especially up and under. The halfbacks that play Widnes know his weaknesses and must love it. Jack is picking up more injuries now too which are niggles with older age. Fleming, Brown and Butt for Fullback? An opportunity for someone to cement there place and keep Jack out. We have enough Captains and playing him for that is not a reason for me.

Well if these injuries are true - got to use Cameron brown at fb

keep the rest of the back line the same, lannon in at 13 and Reilly at 10 

interchange hooker ?

pretty thin on the bench though

Need an interchange hooker until JJ is back. I do think he will try Lyons and I presume they have not given Doolan a contract?

@berkeleyviking Cameron Brown dropped high kicks in the Warrimgton game so doubt he will be picked at full back. Fleming played ok there on Sunday so perhaps he will stay there. Lloyd covered well at centre once or twice last year but with Hall out he is needed at second row. Perhaps get a loanee in to cover at centre?
