Is Walmsley injured, rested or what?.

He’s been carrying a few niggles for about four weeks now, so seems a great opportunity to rest him. Olpherts and McGillvary will kill them out of backfield.

Pleased with how we line up today - really interested to see how Booth goes, and glad to see Powell partner Lino with Kay. Can’t be certain Gale will be fit even for the big games so be great to have a rehearsed, solid backup pairing.

Not sure what role Rodwell and Pitts will play. Can’t see Rodwell being as effective as a wide-running back rower, so assume we’ll either play really tight and direct with him, or Pitts will move out there in good ball. Would love to be proved wrong with Rodwell though, maybe he can do it all.

I'm interested to see how Booth goes in the centre.
He has talent. Just need to see where best to deploy it.

I'm sure Rodwell can do a good job at SR but his talents seem to lend more to a middle.
Could end up being a Gareth Ellis type though.

Rodwell doing well at SR. Certainly puts the hits in defence, just wish players would learn to back him up because he will almost certainty break the line again.

Surprised not to see Crofty or Joe Law at centre. Been playing well in reserves.

Noah Booth did well at centre. Completion rate was shocking especially in the second half. But they couldn’t really get through our defence in the middle.

Another win and again most trys by the forwards. We still looked poor at times with the ball in hand. Ball retention also poor. We also gave away many penalties but having said that, the ref came out with quite a few strange calls.
But we keep winning comfortably and that's all that matters

Good day out to Whitehaven today. It's been a long time since I was last up there.
Thoroughly enjoyed it. Team played OK with lots of 50/50 decisions and penalties going the way of the home side but some dumb mistakes really disrupted our flow. But the bottom line is we beat another team by over 20 points away from home so nothing to moan about really. The Championship tour moves on.
Finally well played Whitehaven who gave us a game
