I thought King was awesome yesterday and Burke had his best games in a long while. For me the pack picks itself - I would bring in Luckley to the bench, not seen enough from Sita yet, he needs to make more impact if he is starting. Thought Addy was hard working again, massive improvement on last year.
If Ackers is doing 80 mins we need at least 3 forwards on the bench v Hull. Play either Sarge or Cross, having a centre on the bench is a waste of a Subs spot, for me it is Sarge as he and Burgess have played together for years. I'd go with:
Brierley
Sio
Lafai
Sarge
Burgess
Croft
Syned
King
Ackers
Burke
Wright
Greenwood
Taylor
Addy
Luckley
Sita
Lannon/Wells
We need to be solid in the forwards v Hull and missing Gale will cause them issue in attack.

Id say so, why change a winning team/squad, unless of course there are injury concerns, they'll be without gale leading them around the pitch but I think Connor is back, let's see if we can make it 3/3, another tough away game though

Feels harsh on Cross who hasn’t let anyone down but I’d go for Sarge if he’s fully fit (had a warm down session on his own at the end of yesterday)
I think Luckley had more impact at Cas than Gerard did yesterday (solid as Gerard was) so I’d bring him back for Hull.
I’m not convinced by Sita but not sure I’d leave him out for any help f the other choices. Maybe Wells?

I prefer Cross to Lafai and Ormondroyd or Wells to Akuola

I thought Cross was excellent against Cas but pretty anonymous yesterday. Lafai been very good in both games, better yesterday than at Cas. I think he gets the nod out of the two
Nice problem to have though. Cross surprisingly good (Rowley has praised him several times too), Lafai hit the ground running too, Sarginson back and Watkins still to come back. Can’t think of another time we’ve been so well served for centres in the SL era. Maybe in the Gregory days?

Maybe Lafai in the second row eventually, he’s big enough and plays wide.

According to Total RL, Lafai has the most tackle busts so far. JJR, you wouldn’t be just saying something to be controversial?

Is Lafai not allowed to make tackle busts in the second row?😉

Nice problems to have. I remember us having the same conversation about wingers last year, but injuries happen - we barely saw Budgie at all it was a good job we had so many. They will all get their chance over the season

The person who’s impressed me this year is Burgess; thought at first we had another Wigan cast off, but he’s back to a good level. Speed with basics.
Probably now the best pair of wingers in the League and Williams, who I really like, can’t get on the pitch.

Ref is Hicks
GRIFFITHS who reffed us last week is dropped. I must admit I hadn’t a clue what was going on with him, v v tough conditions but I think he lost it

Thanks god it is not Griffiths, Hull are there for the taking, the pressure is very much on them.
