Good to see Kris Welham back in the elite squad with Liam Watts once again in the Knights and now joined by Josh Hodgson and Scott Taylor.

Well done lads!

Ian Henderson in the Elite squad though? What's that about, I'd much rather have seen Danny Houghton in there.

If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

What on earth is Macca doing selecting Peacock and Morley????????

Same old same old.

Will he ever learn!

On Welham, Yeaman and Briscoe, I'm afraid their club form doesn't merit selection.

It's a farce naming a squad 14-15wks in advance, when we're only 5 games into a season.

Good to see for Hodgson & Taylor getting calls, Welham's earned his place, Watts has a bit to do.

How could you not pick Ryan Atkins? Best centre in SL.

To be fair I would pick Josh Hodgson in the first team over Briscoe, Big head and Welham on this season's performance. A big call but he is looking as good as Roby, same sort of build, speed, position and distribution. Next year he will be first choice England squad.

Peter Gentle was rejected by Hull KR as their new head coach due to his lack of ambition.
