but i'd be surprised if Agar did start with Wood over Smith, Sykes over Mellars, and if Matt James got a game. Given that Mathers has lost a shed load of weight, it wouldn't be a shock if Sykes was fullback for this one too.

If Wood doesn't start he must be thinking what he's got to do, from the game time he's had he's looked the most dangerous h/b we've got. Give the kid more game time Agar !!!!

Just because he is in the squad doesn't necessarily mean Matt James will play. Agar will opt to have Walshaw at Prop.



Wish Motu Tony would get another chance to play.

Like the look of putting Washbrook in second row with Aiton at 13. We are shipping in 30+ points a game so we need our best tacklers on the pitch and both these lads can play the full 80. Ellis must play, if Wood has a fault its his defence ( I prefer to see Wildie play ) but other than Ali he has been our only attacking option so I can see him getting selected. No point in Smith playing from the bench, I would put him in the under 20`s for a few weeks and ask him to see if he can score a few tries at that level and get some confidence. Hope Matt James gets a go - point him at the Leeds pack and ask him to ruffle a few feathers. He is a big tough Wakey lad lets see if he could be our much talked about missing prop.

Would hope Mellars is dropped.

He should put Mellars at 5 with Ben as his centre and see how he likes not having the ball passed to him, that might teach him

Rhino's squad for Friday - Main change from London game is McGuire back from injury for Leeds.



1. Brent Webb

2. Ben Jones-Bishop

4. Zak Hardaker

5. Ryan Hall

6. Danny McGuire

7. Rob Burrow

8. Kylie Leuluai

9. Paul McShane

13. Kevin Sinfield

14. Lee Smith

15. Brett Delaney

16. Ryan Bailey

17. Ian Kirke

18. Chris Clarkson

20. Darrell Griffin

24. Liam Hood

Think it should be:-



Sykes

Fox

Collis

Mellars

Cockayne

John

Smith

Amor

Ellis

Raleigh

Kirmond

Aiton

Washbrook



Subs:- Wilkes, James,Walshaw,Wood

The defence out wide needs addressing but I would go with..



1. Mathers

2. Fox

3. Collis

4. Mellars

5. Cockayne

6. John

7. Smith

8. Amor

9. Ellis

10. Raleigh

11. Kirmond

12. Aiton ( strong defender inside mellars) could be dangerous out wide.

13. Washbrook



14. James

15. Wilkes

16. Walshaw

17. Wood (interchange hkr).



I think having Aiton at SR could be a master stroke.

Would like to see this.

Smith out. Wood in.
