I think this weekend will be a struggle for us. Does anyone have news on how long Rhys and Nick will be out for? Is Mick Vella back?

It seems that JM's tactics against Huddersfield was to tire out their big forwards, that seems evident from the team selected. Obviously that did not work. Now without two of our best props we appear forced into similar tactics against Harlequins, can we pull it off this time?

according to the mail

Vella back this week
fozzard not as bad as originally thought 1 month
lovegrove 8 weeks

Vella, Mikali, Wheeldon, Mills, Watts plus others that can fill in if needed. We are still not too bad off, even though they will be a loss to us.

I'll only be out this weekend due to financial reasons but back at Craven for the visit of the Catalan Dragons. Thank you for your concern.

I'd put Mills over Watts, but only for this game as he used to play for them, otherwise Watts would be ahead of Mills IMO. Anyone seen him play this season and if so would they agree?

The incentive is there if they play well & results go our way they can go third behind the Giants & saints(if we dont we drop to 7,8th)

We had the incentive to go 2nd on Monday and look what happened



Cant see us getting anything this weekend simply because we always struggle down there(hope i'm wrong though

)

Have faith in the team! they will put a few past them.

Mills was one of the better players against Harlequins last year I think.

What do you base that on???

that watts could make an indentation at least in a wet paper bag and at least ripple the skin off custard

Mills has showed up alot better than Watts in the Reserves this year, Watts' chance will come next year i reckon.

That I've always been impressed with Watts performances, and very rarely impresssed with Mills, but like I say, haven't seen much of either this season.
