Don't know if this is posted anywhere else but according to bbc Flannery and Eastmond have mumps. Not good.

I'd go for

Lomax
Gardner
Gidley
Gilmour
Meli
Wheeler
Pryce
Graham
Roby
Puletua
Wilkin
Clough
Wellens

Ashurst
Hargreaves
Dixon
Dean

Looks a little nit lightweight but will go for a 24 - 20 win.

Wheeler injured

In that case, Lomax to SH, Wellens to FB, Wilkin to LF, Gilmour to SR and Dean to centre.

Is eastmond defo not playing?

And Cunningham has been named in the 19 man squad so will hopefully be playing

Emmitt's in there, I would give him a bench spot.
If Dean plays I would put him in the centre to allow Gilmour to add his experience to the back row since Flanders isn't playing.

If eastmond's out? There will be a temptation to move Wilkin into the halves, but I'd be tempted to put Lomax at 7 to cause as little distruption to the team structure as possible.

I don't reckon he will be ready yet.

Why does anyone think Wellens would make a good loose forward?

Don't know but it is starting to annoy me!

I dont particuarly, but looking at the players we have out I thought that would be the most balanced line up.

Plus Wellens does have theattributes of a decent LF. Strong, good hands, good in defence.

Any news on Eastmond yet, he defo out, defo in. Is ti pryce and wilkin for 6 + 7

do you think gilmour will be playing at centre tonight??

if so 18/1 for first try with william hill looks a very good price!

especially considering how shiit we are on the fringes

Not sure what team I'd pick if eastmond doesn't play.

If eastmond is out then wilkin would go scrum half and that means gilmour wouldn't be able to plays centre.

Wello
Gardner
Gidley
Gilmour
Pryce
Lomax
Graham
Roby
Tony p
Flannery
Ashurst
Wilkin

KC
Bryn
Clough
?????? 1 of the young lads

If it don't happen for lomax we can either put wilkin there or roby.

I'd go:

Wello
Gardner
Gidley
Dean
Meli
Pryce
Wilkin
Graham
KC
Hargreaves
Gilmour
Flannery
Roby

TP
Clough
Dixon
Lomax

Lomax to spell KC at 9, Roby to play 80 at LF, Clough and TP to prop.

thats the one.

Could be a problem with that? Thought Flannery wasn't playing?

oh yeah, overlooked that....he is a bell end for posting that isnt he.

I think we going to find it tough tonight.

It could be another hull kr type game at home.

we had an almost full strength team for that didnt we, were looking a little light tonight.

forward power tonight. wakey will be reelin from last weeks loss to leeds. lets go at em in the middle, kick it long and turn them, wear them down as quick as we can and slip over for 4 tries in each half... happy days

tp hatrick

Thats our tactic

Lets hope we can continue using broughy's kicking game for some 40/20's in this wind, whilst keeping saints down their end.

Get abit more possesion in attacking 20, lets see what we can do.

need to buck our ideas here or we're in danger of losing it
