Although guessing with Walker out, Moy goes to FB, hopefully Carlos is Ok and I'd play him at 6.
I'd switch off so haven't seen Balmforths sin bin, but hopefully it won't get a ban, seemed to be ignoring late hits in the Rovers game yesterday, which is frustrating for fans who want consistency.
Moy Barron Chamberlain Briscoe Martin Carlos (Harman) Charles Ese Ese Smith Sao Lane Cartwright Aydin
Fash Balmforth (another young hooker) Ruan Ashworth/Gardiner
Not going to be pretty
There were some late tackles, then there was Balmforths very late tackle, pointless doing it, I'd be surprised if he doesn't get a game or two ban, I'm not in any way saying that it was a bad tackle by the way, just stupidly late.
I'd say in regards to Balmforth, I agree it was stupid effort however in all honesty it was probably borne out of pure frustration more than anything else. It doesn't make it right but certainly understandable from a young player given the appalling effort on the day and being sat on the bench until the game had ultimately gone before the Grix as the coach decided to put him on.
I really enjoy long walks especially when they are taken by people I don't like!

It was so late that the next game was almost ready to kick-off by the time he made it!! I'll give the lad some slack and put it down to frustration more than anything at the end of another long 80 minutes for us, but I'll be surprised if he doesn't pick up a one game ban later today.

Better get Norris McWhirter on the blower for this one. Records will be tumbling all over the place.
Youngest ever Super League starting 13? Most missed tackles in a game? Least meters made in a game? Lowest average meter gain in a game (Fash might already have this one)? Least play the balls in the opposition half in a game?
The list could be endless.
There might be a few of us wishing we were already bottom and hadn't beat them last month by the end of this one!
