I'm concerned about Lynch tbh. With the amount of work he's having to do at the moment in the absence of the other senior props I worry about him getting burned out for later in the season.

He's played 60 minutes or more throughout his career, hasn't he?

Too right. Championship teams have made the semis in the past. A team like us should never give up on the chance to get to Wembley.
The odds are against us, but we can definitely win on Sunday.

Rovers tonked huddersfield with a poorer team than the one we will put out. If the kids have stormers then we may well progress. Saints have brought kids in and they havent looked out of place. If we sneak through and get a decent draw then our injury luck must change soon and we could have a fresh almost fully fit squad by the quarters. If the kids have shockers then were dooooooomed

Yeah, but in the last 3 years at Bradford he hasn't had to go past the 1st week in September.

Agreed. I think it will be more competitive than some say.

spot on. You don't play them and then they never improve. Hope Lyne gets a game, as it is clear that Sharp and Turner have come on leaps and bounds. Why not him?

The fact that he's struggling to make an impact in the under20's suggests that he hasn't come on leaps and bounds.

Wakefield winning 12-6 at Headingley, Burrow and McShane off injured. Crikey.

Never????

and apparentely Bailey kicked Co**head in the head whilst he was on the floor!

Two thugs who should both be in prison!

On report, I read. What a surprise. Had it been the other way round Cockayne would have likely got a red.

Washy at standoff, Aiton at loose man. Good old fubar.

12-12 now after 45 minutes. Half time Agar team talk still delivers.

18-12 now to Leeds!

24-12 now, Agar still as inspirational as ever

Good to see agar keep his 100% record against the rhinos

Quite amusing that someone started an 'Agar in' thread on the Wakey board just before it all went tits up.

Gentle getting all available bodies on the pitch tomorrow.

We have a weak bench but the starting 13 is still pretty strong. Hopefully our defence can continue being strong and we will be in with a chance.

We're fortunate to have 4 80 minute players in the pack (Lynch, Houghton, Tickle, Manu). They all need to have massive games tomorrow.

going to be a tough game tomorrow, can't believe there are two Saturday TV games and no Sunday game, the CC will die on it's if that continues, Feath v Cas, come on, hardly going to be entertaining.

Good luck to the FC tomorrow, we'll need it I think.

And, may I add, on the last day that the BBC has Grand National coverage #pointlessliscencefee

Having not read the full thread I dont know if anyone has mentioned this but if Wade id out I would think about putting Sharp there with Lyne on the wing.

So our injury list now is:

Westerman
Heremaia
O'Meley
O'Carroll
Bowden
Aspinwall
Yeaman
Horne

Then Wade is a doubt, Sharp cant be 100% and Tickle took a bang last week. Crazy.

Our starting 13 is good enough, put together with Moa off the bench, who will want to make up for some lost time, and some smart interchanges, which we know Gentle is good at, I think it could be a close game.

In Gentle We Trust.

It's a massive effort that is required for this game for sure. We're playing Huddersfield who are a good team with some decent players but hardly full of all time greats. If we stick to our structures and cut down the errors then there's no reason why we can't be in the hat for the next round.
