Well that sounds like why there's been a few changes in the backline.

Milf on the bench adds an extra forward at least.

I mean maybe, or maybe he plans on running out a backline ofYeah right I forgot Kevvie throwing darts again
Oates
Cobbo
Mead
Coates
Because Farnworth has the runs
If it was due to Farnworth why wouldn’t he just name Cobbo on the extended bench incase Farnworth was unfit

It's getting easy now mate
In all seriousness I'd say that's why Mead was in the extended squad , I really do believe alot of it is to give players game time atm.

Pretty bad way to give game time. A top 6 team with Manu and Tedesco in their backs against a backline with 2 19 year olds an out of position Mead. Coates getting game time for what?It's getting easy now mate

Poor coaching.
That being said I am keen for Milford to come off the bench but it’ll shit me to tears when he comes on at 36-8 with 12 minutes to go and Kelly gets benched for no reason.

With no Herbie we will lose alot of meters, he is basically second to Haas in that metric, I would move Cobbo to Herbies position(since he has a similar frame to Herbie maybe we could get lucky there) and then just leave Arthurs in his perferred position.
and given that there would be even more reason to drop Coates for Mead, there is already one position change that's unfortunate, Mead would help atleast solidify the defence on the left.

Poor coaching? You have no clue why the changes have happened but because you think it's the wrong thing to do, well it must be poor coaching. I don't think isaako has been good enough to hold a spot and Cobbo for arthars isn't a big head scratcher considering the kids ability. Why not test him out against quality? It's not as if winning this game is going to change much, but it might give Cobbo some much needed experience .

Meade comes in from the reserves for Herbie. Bench remains unchanged. I don't see Milford in the picture.
Kevin Walters:
“Herbie had a bit of trouble today at training. He didn’t finish and he has been a bit unwell this week so we will see how he pulls up tomorrow. Whether he plays or not, we will make a bigger decision on who we will carry on the bench. Herbie is a bit unstable on that leg of his, we thought he would be OK but he didn’t finish training so it’s thrown a little spanner in the works but nothing we can’t overcome.”

“thrown a little spanner in the works”. Dunno mate, doesn’t sound like a pre-planned master stroke to me.

Milford won’t put in 100% effort, he’s already got a contract somewhere else. Definitely wouldn’t bring him back in.

Pretty sure Cobbo and Coates were pre planned, obviously Mead was just cover .
