Re: fullback. Leeds won the title in 2017 with Jack Walker at full back, Wigan won in 2016 with Dan Sarginson. I don't think Dufty will be the reason we lose a GF if we get there but he may be the reason we win one.

Re : "Challenging in at least one final" - Personally I am only interested in one final, the GF.


This, we need the right player as captain and acting as a captain on the field, backed up by two or three others who make sure nobody presses a panic button.

Oh hell is Drinkwater going to become the next Mata'utia on the forum? BTW I'd love it if Hayes stepped up and played every game.

I'd rather have Wrench at centre than Mata'utia and Ratchford.

Drinkwater's best attribute has always been his kicking game, which has been awful for too long in the P&B. Players should earn the shirt, Smiffy, but there's been too many poor performance by too many players over a number of years. If SB promotes a system of meritocracy, then we'll have laid the first stone of a good foundation for the future.

Totally agree. Let the young guns prove their worth at training and on the pitch & step up & we'll all be happy.
But let us show respect to our older lads too. Seems fair doesn't it.

Yes, but only if they walk the walk and set the standard and an example to our younger squad members and our academy.

Nice to see a new pair of eyes looking at the situation. It should be seen as an opportunity for all to show their worth.
It makes the early season selections great fun.

There was the perceived (rightly or wrongly) correlation of Drinkwater's decline in form/attitude around the time of McGuiregate. I think when we were 8/8 no-one was complaining. Then we got a taste of reality from Saints and Wigan and it all went downhill.
