Be interesting to see if they go Lumb or Edgehill. Edgehill has been solid but lumb from what we’ve seen has the higher ceiling as a winger.

Handley’s taken a lot of stick this year physically. He’s been susceptible to injury having to carry the props all year.

I'd go with Lumb over Edgell, I think he offers more and has more pace.

1. Miller
2. Fusitua
3. Momirovski
4. Newman
5. Lumb
6. Croft
7. Frawley
8. Sangare
9. Ackers
10. Lisone
11. McDonnell
12. Martin
13. O'Connor

14. Bentley
15. Donaldson
16. Goudemand
17. Smith

I think BA will swap O'Connor and Smith.

Will be Edgell on the wing folks, he was training there at yesterday's open training session while Lumb watched on from behind the sticks.

And tbf he’s probably earnt that. Not let anyone down. Lumb can play next week when Fus inevitably breaks down.

Looks like

Miller
Fusi
Momo
Newman
Edgel

Croft
Frawley

Lisone
Ackers
Sangare
McDonnell
Martin
Smith

TNW, Donaldson, Bentley, O'Connor

Love seeing repeat sets early, especially vs bigger teams

Poor drop of a high kick and then clocked off in defence.

Jeez

Well worked try, used to run that type of pairs play 25-30 years ago in my LL days, works a dream when executed well

Dull attack and now the usual wittery is back.

Completely losing our composure with the ball here…

Refs pretty much allowing cats to fall asleep in the ruck.

Feck sake do we get anything from any ref Should be binned for the tackle/holding on croft then a blatant ball steal given as a knock on

Getting rolled in the forwards, not enough muscle. Everything else on the back of that is rushed and compressed. Same old problems, and they all start with having not one front row option that is good enough. We must sign two starting quality props for next season.


Oh and young Edgell is having a mare unfortunately.

The ruck is a fkin disgrace I can't remember it being so badly reffed and that's saying something. Arthur needs to find a way for us to play around it because moore isn't doing anything

Dreadful with the ball, only Miller who looks like he can break a tackle, rest of the 3 quarters look like plodders.

Need much better in the next 40

Agreed, I’m literally screaming at Fusitua who looks like he can’t be d at all. Run onto the frikken ball FGS.

First time he does it and…

Much better energy, and look at the difference.

Arthur has earned his money with that half time team talk. We've negated cats negative lying on tactics by upping out energy and finding some better angles round the ruck. Cleaned up some errors and more push around the ball helping some clinical finishes

What a team talk that must have been. It was like watching two different Leeds teams.

Bit more like it!! Shame we have to wait until we're trailing before we get our act into gear though! 100x better the second half.

Good to see TNW go well with bigger minutes too.
