Fair point but we were missing Bullock and Harrison last night who have been very good this season as well as McGuire who will undoubtedly make a difference to our pack. We were also without Drinkwater who has been excellent, Thewlis and Wrench. So that's 5-6 regulars out. Plus we lost Clark early in the game. I don't want a bigger run of injuries than that!
I think our biggest issue is depth in the second row and how it affects our interchanges given Holroyd also appears to be injured. Harrison can slot in there if needed but is of course out for a while.
If Clark is missing next week I really hope Doolan gets a bench spot and we don't try and shoehorn someone else into the interchange hooker role unless we think Walker can do the 80.
Good post. We've achieved 6 from 6 without McGuire pulling on the shirt and having injuries to a number of players. We have a home game against Hull before an intriguing run of three games. It will be more of an informative period for us, whether we can turn out a near full strength 17*, or not. Super start to the campaign, and there's much to like and build on.
*Six games in, "what's our best 17?" is a far more difficult question to answer, than it was at the start of the season. A number of strong claims to a shirt have already been made.
