Crossy deserves a chance, fair enough hes made some mistakes getting penalised whilst in possession twice but i feel especially now JP is fit again he could really compliment our pack, but i said a couple of weeks ago, for what ever reason hes well out of faour atm, and i cant see him playing again this season.
burgess is back thats one good thing, but clarky still not selected is a joke, he was playing well and getting better and better every week now he cant get in, which i could understand if we were showing warringtons form, but weve just shipped 40+ in back to back games. Its easy to see that hes worth a place more than weller at the moment, well for everyone except Mc!

But Bluey used to get away with it . If JP,JJB and KS drop out then Cross and Clarkson might just get a game. I can`t see KL playing two games in 3 days either.
yes you can change injured players up to kick off but they need a doctors note supposedly, I can't see a problem with jjb playing sunday as he's the 18th man tonight!

I suppose with your "acumen" and fairness you would say that with the exceptions of Cross, JP, JJB & Buderus the rest of the Leeds forwards are "technically bloody awful" ......Right Kemo Sabi?
Yeah with the exception of Cross?? Yeah I can't let that slide, at all. His technically awfulness is his achilles heel, his weak-spot. All players have them. I have never questioned his fitness or workrate. Just the way he goes about things, it's a little Sloppy Joe for me. if he could get a handle on his aggression and channel it effectively he would be vastly improved and would give himself a better opportunity to make the 17. He had a run at the start of the year to show what he could do, when we were struggling with prop injuries maybe he hasn't done enough?
I know props are props and the whole 'big daft lad' sentiment can be brought up, but he's far from perfect. My ideal props of Kylie, JP, Biff and Bails is the correct combo IMO. You get a bit of everything. They just all need to hit their straps. ALL not just leaving out your 'chosen ones'. I expect more.
Look at the Biff and Clarkson situation. Cross can't find his way into the team with these 2 on the edges, which is a puzzle. But I'd rather see Biff/Clarky than Cross. But in fairness Cross is light years ahead of weller, so go figure!
Saddle up brother.

Ok so yorks have a 2020 game before yes? Can you watch both with one ticket? Penny pinching here. Obviously you can go in the cricket stands before the rugby with a rugby ticket theres nothing to stop it but what about the other way round anyone know? Thanks.

Rhinoms is always one of the most positive optimistic contributers on this forum....so when he laments the present situation one must surely concede it is something that needs to be listened to.
