It’s not ideal I know but last time we played Catalans 
max was shut out of the game at 6. Wasn’t that the game where he touched the ball very few times all game too? Like a handful maybe. 


Rourke’s main game is individual kick chases isolating the full back and if Tomkins is playing that likely won’t be effective. 


Hood has played 6 quite well last year for us. He at least allows a passing link to utilise Jowitts strengths which I think are Catalans weaknesses. 


It’s  just not ideal at all not having Max at 1 or a 6 available. I do hope that Russel can make it if there’s a chance. 


If Rourke plays I’ll be fully supportive of him and I think he’s been solid. I think he just needs to develop his game on the edges and ball in hand. It’s just an area I think we need to exploit this week.  


Powell will likely go with Rourke at 1 because that’s what he’s done most of season when forced but Hood is an option if Doyle is fit whereas he wasn’t previously. 

Rourke was top draw well played trinity 

I may have missed it but was Pratt injured or just rested for this game ?
I must admit that Hall and LW are making a good partnership and it was obvious that most of the problems for Catalan came down our right.

Yes they are. Both are proving the doubters wrong. They are both SL quality. Walmsley shirks nothing and his tries were top drawer.  
Hall is proving to be a great prospect. 

Superb performance in the first half and thought Hall was excellent but, being hyper-critical, thought he bombed a couple of chances in the second half when the pass to Walmsley could have produced two more tries ??

Pratt is injured said so in hospitality before match .Agree about Hall ,slow start to season but is becoming a class centre .Just hope there is a way we can keep Warmsley begging to look the part.Mr  Powell said that Smith had improved so much he had no worries about been starting booked .One of the best first half of the season ,the ball movement was class .Second half Catalan just slowed the game down  ,and the ref let them get away with it. The rook was a lot slower in the second half ,and we went though the forwards a lot more .But overall a very good performance
