She does actually believe the rubbish she writes. Sad but true, but everyone is entitled to their opinion.

Fair play - you're better than I've given you credit for.

I'll be honest, I do enjoy the suspense of seeing with what she will come out with next. The main reason I enjoy taking her on.

I think Brown might go with:
Makinson
Gardner
Jones
Turner
Meli
Hohaia
Wilkin
LMS
Speakman
Laffranchi
Soliola
Manu
Wellens

Flanagan
Perry
Walmsley
Puletua

You too should start your own private forum , you suit each other.

You do realise it's unlikely to make any sense don't you?

I recall the arguments at the beginning of last season where she insisted Lance was a stand off (regardless of the facts) .. then slowly changed her mind

Looks like Gaskell has played his last game for us,surprised at that.
Ill be glad when Swifts fit I like the look of him a lot more than Ashe.
Hope he doesnt stick Wello back at fullback,ideal game to try him out with the forwards.

All views are welcome, even mad cap conspiracy theorist.

So long as it meets the AUP, you could suggest that Saints pick a line up made up of marshmellows for all I care.

They would have performed better against hudds

Ashe or Makinson fullback for me with Speakman at 9. That would make sense although IIRC Ashe has played Stand Off a few times so Hohaia could go 9 with Speakman coming off the bench. I like how unpredictable we are this year.

Long may she continue to entertain us all

Dont forget Jordan Hand was not in the 19 last week yet played. Still a chance for someone like Percival IMO.

This is the team I think we will see

1 wellens
2 Gardner
3 jones
4 turner
5 meli
6 hohaia
7 Wilkin
8 perry
9 speakman
10 laffranchi
11 Manu
12 puletua
13 Flanagan


14 Ashe
15 wamsley
16 clough
17 Lms

17

I think Wello will be in his new role in the back row.

If Makinson gets a run at #1, he could have a field day against struggling Salford.

Heard Lance H may not play and Wello may get some time at 9 !!

Given the weather forecast, nobody may play!

If lance doesn't play and Gaskell not being in the squad then something gone on if lee can't get in the team when lance lomax and wheeler are all out than they as to be something going on

If lance doesn't play and wheeler, swift and Lomax are all injured, he has to play Gaskell, doesn't he? I guess he could sill pick turner....

you might not be far off, the forcast for the next 24 hrs is not good!

Is this week 8?

Isn't this the point that Brown said he wanted to be up to speed and have the team running at full tilt?

Cant do much about injuries though. I think Brown probably knows his best 17 now, he just cant get them on the field

we're joint 2nd, which after our start is just remarkable

Lewis 'Dougie' Charnock is in the team, no?

Been getting a lot of congrats from family and friends either way.

Sorry if it's already been mentioned. I didn't realise it was a five page thread.

He's my mates brother and a few of them have been congratulating him for getting into the first team. If you have him on Twitter, you'll see what I mean.

I'm a little confused as to what the

is for
