Not a bad choice, though I do like Larroyer, and I think Hutchy will come into his own now he has scored to give him a bit of confidence, and the firm grounds will suit us.

Few injuries and suspensions brings the few changes but should still be strong enough to put Rochdale to one side

Was it one bench appearance for Workington? I hope he has a point to prove, because he's a better player than we have seen so far - although he hasn't been given much game time.

I'm sure we'll get firm grounds eventually but it will be pishking down all this weekend

Another solid performance v Rochdale and another big plus in the goal difference.

Very impressed with Patrick today. He really did look as though he wanted to prove a point!

I was in a bizarre position of being impressed with both Patrick and Richards individually yesterday, but felt the team dipped overall when they came on. May have been because we seemed to have Lovett playing at 13 for a spell till Evans went off, which he doesn't have the size for. Or maybe Hood's influence is increasing and performance is dipping when he goes off.

Either way, looks like we need another prop now VaiVai is injured, and Hansen seems to have reverted back to playing second row.

DB said he was in the process of bringing a couple of middles in due to Vai Vai being out for quite some time.

Cmon Derek, talk English ,middles are them things polo's don't have, arnt they?

You should know Ian, you're worth a mint.
