Gone for the season if rumours are true.

Will be missed, puts a hell of a shift in each game! How do we move players around for these last 2-3 games?

Leuluai 9, Williams and French in the halves. We’ve been dusted by Saints each time we’ve played them so time to try something different.

Huge blow in these games. He’s perfect for play off rugby and we don’t have anybody in his mould to play at hooker. We have a number of options to think about. I noticed Shorrocks warmed up so guess he’s back in the mix. Maybe we’ll bring Sammut in or we could go with a youngster like Burrouh or Harry Smith.

Personally I’d put Williams and Sammut in the halves with Tommy at 9 and French on the bench

Huge blow losing an 80 minute hooker.

Sammut/Shorrocks are still injured I think.

French at halfback doesn't work atm as well so a tough situation.

That combo looked appalling tonight. No direction whatsoever. Personally I’d bring in either Smith/Bourouh.

I'd go Sammut in the halves. Use French on the wing where he's played really well for us

When Powell went off the organisation went to pieces. Passes to men stood still showed they needed someone to take over but it didn't seem to happen.
Great defence and a lot of hard work out there but at times we do need leadership to organise the attacking structure.
French was the fastest man on the field and we had him playing dummy half last 10 when Salford were out on their feet. What's that all about?

I think French is a quality player and we need to find room for him in the team. If that means on the wing, at least, for now, fine, Obviously, that would mean sacrificing either Marshall or Burgess, but so be it. Crazy thought: what if they'd put Marshall to dummy-half, and French to the wing?

Maybe if French and Williams are given a full weeks training it will be different,you cant expect 2 players that aren't used to playing together to suddenly become a world class partnership

SAMMUT IS A BETTER PLAYER

No, you cant mess about with untried players at half back at this point and you cant move Tommy from 7 because his defence on the right is too important at this stage. Just bring somebody in to replace Powell.

French isn’t a half back for me,if Shorrocks is fit then play him at hooker,just don’t know how you juggle the pack really

Bring Oloughlin into starting line up at six .

Move French to 9 and get him scooting left right and centre

Don’t get me wrong I wasn’t expecting a world class partnership but I think we can all agree we needed better. At this stage of the season is it really wise to start messing around putting a player in at HB who hasn’t played there for years? I’d say not. Similarly I wouldn’t put French at FB instead of Zak. It’s an interesting and divisive issue on where to play French.

I like the lad, he’s got speed to burn in an open field but a small part of me does wonder the sense in signing him. That’s not to say he should go or in anyway saying he shouldn’t have been signed btw.

Partington back for Saints could he play hooker?

It’s boring but I’d go Lockers and have him, Smithies and Partington in the same starting pack. Along with Isa and Farrell (shocking miss on Hastings aside) your solid as a rock in defence and in play off games you need to be that. We can’t afford to be loose against Saints because they’ll play the game at a faster pace than Salford did and I felt we were hanging on at times last night.
