If all those are 100% fit I would leave out Smith and Hood for this one.
McShane deserves another go as does Moore and Kirke.

Got to be Smithy dropping out for this one!

As for the other player...possibly McShane or Hood.

I'll go with McShane.

I have been informed that Stevie Ward will start the game on friday night against the Giants, at least it's a chance to see how he handles the game/role from the outset as opposed to coming off the bench last week when the game had gone.

Out of the 17 on duty at Saints there is a good case of leaving out 90% of them, however from 19 named I would leave out Smith and McShane.

The 19 selected says a lot about a Grand Final winning coach and his selection decisions, in contrast to the knee jerk reactions of many wannabe expert internet warriors

McDermott said today on Radio Leeds that Burrow, McGuire and Webb were all rated as 50/50.
McGuire not making the 19 and doubts over the other two could mean Smith makes the final 17.
Sinfield and Ward in the halves I guess.

That's good news IMO.

Burrow, mcguire and sinfield won't be around forever, so it's maybe the right time to start dripfeeding potential new players in this type of mould from the academy.

I'd like to see Ward in the back row at this level I think. His skill set looks more suited to a wide running SR or LF.

Sounds like Steve Ward is starting. Hope he goes with Ward so and Mcshane SH, Sinfield hooker if burrows out
with Hood on the bench.
