I doubt we'd get a commanding lead without Clark playing!

I'm a big fan of Davis myself. Not in grix's league yet mind you!!
But if Danny Walker isn't going to start when we rest Clark, when is he?

I'm with you Moe on both points. Walker needs a run out and based on Thewlis's performance last week the younger lads in the squad can take encouragement that Price will give you a chance and you should try your damnedest to make the most of it.

TBH based on limited viewings of him at Widnes I'm quite surprised how little time Walker's had

aside from the preseason and the first game(leeds i think) walker hasn't shown much.

tbh, i wasn't overly in favour of us signing him, and if he wasn't a warrington lad (i'd don't think i've used that before) i dont think most would be bothered. Its ok to look active and ok in a side that's getting slapped every week.

Think brad dywer at leeds at the moment, they're getting beat but he looks 'busy'.

Maybe Walker was signed because he managed to wind C Hill up, having said that we would have the biggest squad in SL if that was a reason to sign someone.

On the point of resting Austin, if the ruomours about Brown being back soon are to be belived then perhaps soon we may see austin reased for Patton and brown in the halves. I'd only agree with that though if Austin was playing through injury and it was geeting to the point where he may cause substantial damage or if we had secured 2nd position and we were able to rest players with the knowledge that we have the points to be able to drop games.

Have we given up on the idea of competing for 1st? I know certain Saints supporters think the season is done and dusted but there are a fair few games to play yet. 2 against the current leaders to start with.

Dwyer always looks busy. Not always good for players around him.

FYI
Mags still injured
Linnett out with Concussion (big loss for us)
Maria back to Catalans

Garbutt returns (big plus for us)
Quinlan returns (another big plus but match fit?)
Lee returns (meh!)
Lunt returns (would be fantastic if he wasn't permanently worrying about his back/health)

how's linnett been going for you?

Some players need to recharge their batteries and some players need game time. It's a win win while we have a six point advantage.

I hear what you are saying FMC, but, we signed the lad so let's see what he's made of, or why bother when we can play Clark for 80 and (or pre Brown injury) Patton/Davis to fill in. Unless he's seen as a longer term project?

no. Pricey has said so this week.

Danny Walker won’t let you down. In other squads he’d be getting regular game time. He’s got a good work ethic tackles well and is sharp. I was impressed with him at Widnes. He’s by no means Daryl Clarke but who is! Give him a chance guys he’s a prospect!

We play Wakey at home next week & Saints at home the week after. Perhaps SP is resting Daryl this week and Blake next week with both of them to return refreshed against Saints. Makes sense to me.

Excellent until he got his head in the wrong place last week.

Would you really rest players against Wakefield.

If you cant rest players against a team that can't score a point at home against Leeds, then when can you??

I would now...I wouldn't in 2 months.
Full fit there a strong rival.

Heard Chester was out training with them, must be bad.

Think he's playing hooker at the weekend

injuries are killing Wakey at the minute but they've got a solid squad and i wouldn't take them lightly. I'd definately rest Blake soon just for 1 game at least. had his thigh strapped last week so he's carrying a niggle at least. Hull Kr will be a tough game this week for sure.

I'd rather we play Austin but for short minutes. Get a lead and take him off for a whole second half if possible. Or start him on the bench and hopefully don't have to bring him on.

It's a really difficult one because we definitely need him for the semi final and the business end, so will need to rest him or lose him at some point. 6 points isn't insurmountable for the chasing pack though and we also have an outside chance of stealing top spot, which is massive now.

Thanks for the update. Question: is there another KR fans forum? Just surprised given your strong fan base how few posts there are on RLfans?

We have hullkrfans.co.uk; most go on there for the fact that to many threads go well adrift when a number of FC fans give their ‘opinions’.
