Karl Pryce... jeezey creesey that takes me back.

There nay be a couple of shocks in the opening say squad, couple of players gave more than impressed in the off season and maybe about to be given first dibs.

Bentley injured for this one according to RS.

Really? Peter Smith had Rohan reporting Holroyd, Lisone and Goudemand were all a chance only yesterday. Reckon there will be a few surprises this time next week.

Oh no, where'd you see that? Gannon, McDonnell and Bentley all out?
Martin + an other to start then, wonder if it would be Goudemand if he's fit, or would we risk starting Littlewood on debut?

Can't read the full story. Does it reflect the headline? Calumn Walker is often way off in terms of the facts.

It does. Quote below.

"Tom Holroyd, James Bentley, James McDonnell and Morgan Gannon will all miss the clash next Friday night, with Gannon being given extra time following another concussion suffered in the pre-season friendly against Hull KR.

Smith, however, does not see any long-term issue with Gannon.

“There’s a few that might miss Round One or Two. Tom Holroyd, James Bentley, James McDonnell and Morgan Gannon will miss Round One but that’s the way rugby league is. There is nothing too serious,” Smith told League Express."

Ta. Oh well, I suppose at least it puts Goudemand and Lisone in the frame.

Is Momirovski back yet? Couldn't see him on the training content they posted yesterday.

Supposedly back in time to play Friday

One big difference for me this year will be how much more physical we are. All the signings we’ve made are physically strong. I feel like with a solid pre-season behind us we should be significantly up on condition compared to last year.

We do need luck with injuries to props this year but I’m expecting us to be tougher to play against. In fact I can see us putting a couple of big scores on sides.

This is the best squad the Rhinos have had for a number of years. It would be very disappointing if they don't get close to winning the thing. Can Smith get them to play to their potential regularly?

Should be a very enjoyable/positive season

Peter Smith still saying only Gannon and McDonnell (of the first team lads) ruled out. Good to see Momirovski back and training today. Intriguing to see the squad on Weds.

Sounds like Bentley's definitely in, Goudemand and lisone positive, Holroyd touch and go.

Good news. As for Total RL, from now on if they told me what day it is I'd check.

Seen Holroyd training a fair bit in recent footage, but they won’t risk him if not fully fit. We’ll need him this year.

I reckon we’ll be at full strength pretty much, except I’d have McDonnell in. Good luck to Bentley though.

Bentley looks in great shape.

Betting for this weeks games taken off the Warrington board.
+6 Hull v HKR -6
-14 Leeds v Salford +14
-8 Leigh v Giants +8
-28 Saints v Brincos +28
+14 Cas v Wigan -14
-4 Catalan v Wire +4
I reckon HKR will win by more than 6.
Leigh by more than 8
Saints more than 28
Wigan more than 14
and Catalan more than 4.
Wouldn`t be surprised to see Leeds win by less than 14.

When are the squads released for the game?

RS on you tube has said that Bentley is definitely fit and apart from Gannon McDonnell everyone else is in with a chance.
If that so we should win by 20.

Tomorrow dinner time

Looking forward to seeing Croft and the new ones in action.
Agree with others, saints and Wigan look the 2 favourites again with Catalan but all teams bar Wakey and London have made a final since 2017, so if we get things going properly and key men stay fit we should be in with a genuine shout of a final.
