Do you reckon there's room for a bench hooker these days with the interchange reduction and the fatigue added by the six again rule? I think we need to be looking to move to four forwards on the bench, with one of the second rowers able to cover centre to allow for backs reshuffling in case of in-game injuries.
Or did you mean more Leuluai being a reserve who comes into the team at hooker when Powell is rested or injured?
I’d start TL on the bench with Havard/Partington at Loose and look to bring TL on at loose or Hooker with Powell to loose when forwards start to tire towards the end of the first half. Both have filled in there before and are more than capable of playing a SOL type role.
French
Manfredi
Hardaker
Gildart
Marshall/Bibby
Field
Hastings
Bullock
Powell
Partington
Farrell
Bateman
Havard
TL
Singleton
Burgess (You never know)/Greenwood (as a prop)
Isa
Hank, Clubb, Smithies, Byrne, Clarke, Shorrocks, Smith, Borough, Pierce-Paul, Halsall, Rushton, Kilner
I’m more than happy with that as a squad, we are Burgess getting fit or 1 prop away from an outstanding squad.
