Am guessing that the players rested against dewsbury will be available for selection next week and a lot of the team selection is pretty much nailed on, I think but could be wrong that griffin is available, suspect none of the guys given a chance yesterday will force there way in. For me the interesting one is Doyle v Kay
Personally think we ll line up something like this :
Jowitt Jerry m Pratt Thornley Walmsley Lino Gale Bowden Hood Atoni Ashurst Griffin Pitt’s
Bain Uele Kay Rodwell
Doyle and olpherts - both of whom I wouldn’t be dissapointed if selected

Yes he’s going for an assessment under hia protocol , but be suprised if he doesn’t play
Feels like it’ll be between Doyle, Kay and Bain for two of those three bench spots. Kay offers more cover if someone goes down injured. Doyle obviously a more natural replacement for Hood (and Hood could potentially fill in at half if Gale tweaks his groin). And Bain could be really effective coming on in the middle, but hasn’t really been part of ‘the journey’.
Suspect it’ll be Bain who misses out. Doyle to come on with Rodwell and Uele 25 mins in. Kay to come on in the middle for a bit if all goes to plan. Or if Griffin’s still out, Bain will get a bench spot too with Rodwell starting in the second row.

Me too, Doyle Deff to spell Hood, Uele and Rodwell for impact and Kaye for vesitilaby. Not nice, but in some respects good you have to leave someone like Bain out.

Exactly but only because of the number of games. That said, if Griffin isn’t fit then Bain would come straight in.
In truth I’d be happy for either or any of the team to get a go. Not one player who’s pulled on the shirt this year has put in anything other than a shift.

It's a case of deja vu. Back in 1979 our then no. 11, Bill Ashurst, was 50/50 whether he played or not. They played him but his injury showed with a very below par performance.
