With (hopefully) the return to fitness of our recognised playmakers imminent, Brough,Grix, Drew, Latu, Obst, Southernwood and eventually Rooney, what will be the pecking order? I`d go with Drew @ 9, Grix @ 6 and Brough @ 7, with Latu orObst on the bench. Although Ithat may be a bit harsh on Sam given his form before injury. An abundance of riches there, and certainly competition for places, I`m glad it will be JK`s problem, not mine, thoughts?

I'd actually keep Martin as 6, Brough 7, Drew 9 and Obst or Latu as the interchange. Rooney and Grix would be reserve, although Grix can play almost anywhere so he wouldn't have to wait long.

I was assuming that Martin would revert to Centre, as I don`t think we`ll see Halley in the next couple of weeks, which I asume would see Gleeson move onto the wing until Petersen is fit, by which time Halley`s loan spell will be nearly up, although the way Bulls are playing I can see an early recall in the offing anyway.

not sure if people will agree with me on this one but i dont like the idea of having sam and latu o the bench together so i'd go for obst at 6 brought 7 drew 9 grix 13 moving demetriou to 12 and latu on bench thoughts?

I thought I read somewhere on the Trin website that they were going to update everyone early this week regarding injury sittuation??

Lots of unanswered questions for this weekend....How bad was the knock that Drew took, will he be fit? Will Sam/Danny/Leo be fit? How long will Scott and James be out for? Is Luke George fit? Is David Halley fit?

I take it Ryan will be back because it was 'only' sickness etc.....I realise that nobody will know all the answers, but seems the 'treatment room' hasn't been updated for about two weeks or so.........

anyone actually know anything, or are we guessing?

would also be nice to get an update regarding Richard Moore and Jamie Rooney.

From what i gather they only update the treatment room when they are 100% convinced of the time out or assessment of an injury. It could well be with Sam, Scott and James that they are still unsure exactely how long they will be out for.

Probably the same with Danny Brough. He keeps putting his hand up to play but the coaching staff are not 100% convinced.

I'm sure when there is news we will hear about it!

I've heard that he's started running again this week, a long way to go but the first step to a full recovery hopefully :PRAY:

Given our luck (or rather lack of it) with injuries I doubt very much that we will have the luxury of having a clean enough bill of health for all the players to be considered in their preferred positions. Luckily we are blessed with some versatile players like Grix, Martin, JD.

My preference would still be for a Grix - Brough - Drew combination with Obst / Leo-Latu interchange.

Isn't it wonderful to have such an abundance of talent in this area that everyone's opinion is equally valid :D

interesting artice ion rugby League world where JK was commenting a potential England team of the future and he put Scott Grix at 6.

Its an intersting poser for JK as last year IMO the half back pairing were never really resolved. Wouldn't be surprised to see Grix and Brough at 6 and 7. Drew has been great at hooker with Obst and Latu vying for the hooker role off the bench. Possible to put Latu at 13.

I would agree with that combination, but like you say it's nice that several combinations could be easily justified...... :D :D

Nice to hear Richard is starting to do a little bit...........good luck to him, on what will be a long road :CLAP:
