Harrison & Laithwaite/Curry to miss out.

Play Higham at Loose Forward with Grix in the 2nd Row, with either Curry or Laithwaite on the bench.

Looking at that I would go with

Russell
Monaghan bridge Atkins Evans
Ratchford myler
Hill higham asotasi
Laithewaite currie
Grix

England Harrison wood Dwyer

Give Waterhouse and Monaghan a rest I think will be his plan so that's the team I can see playing. Should be good enough to get the job done

This. Would definitely start integrating Dwyer into the team ready for Monaghans pending departure. Is O'Brien finished do we reckon?

with Westwood out injured would you also leave out another workhorse at the same time?

England and Higham/Monaghan to miss out for me. Don't see the point in naming Dwyer in the squad otherwise.

He as a point.

Good chance Dwyer will play.
Wane at Wigan already said on Monday that he will be resting players before the Easter weekend.
Smith must be thinking likewise.

Russell
Evans
Bridge
Atkins
Monas
Ratch
Myler
Hill
Higham
Wood
Waterhouse
Currie
Grix

Dwyer
Asotasi
Laithwaite
Harrison

Time to give Dwyer a long-overdue chance, I think he'll seize it. With Benny out we're gonna have to share the load so Currie back in with hopefully a return to form. I'd prefer not to bring Harrison straight back but I'm still to be convinced by England, though I concede he has to play at some point to convince people.

Interesting point - if Westwood and Monas don't play - who's captain?

Waterhouse will play.
He and Benny have been in great form for me this year.
We need at least one of them.

It would be great if Dwyer played but people often underestimate Monas's defensive tackling.

Harrison on the bench with Woody.

Probably England to miss out

I'd be tempted to rest Hill ahead of next week and play England if he's fit and lets see what he's got in case we have to call upon his services because of Easter.

England played well v Leeds.

You can't rest Hill and Westwood together, they're the two players who have carried the forwards this season with their work rate and metres, at least 1 needs to play. I'd leave out Monas and Asotasi with Harrison and England coming off the bench with Currie and Dwyer

Forget leaving Asotasi out, the Freemasons or the illuminati would have Smiths head on a stick.

I hope O'Brien isn't finished as he hasn't done anything wrong. Id like to see him given a chance to play some more games and I think we need to have the ability to rotate the 3 pivots at the club (Ratch, Myler & O'Brien) one of them isn't going to be available at some point. Myler seems to be the one of the 3 that isn't playing well for me.

Hope Dwyer is rotated in the team he's looked sharp and ready for some time now or we will be in the same position with the hooker role next year as we have been this with the 6/7.

If GOB has any ambition of being a full time player I think he needs to look elsewhere unfortunately.

I have been a big Fan of GOB, I have always thought he would be good enough, But! following the Wigan game I watched fulltime and that unfortunately made me realise " I know nothing" that's why we are fans and not coaches!
I now think although I would love to see him hold down a regular spot he will end up elsewhere.
As has been stated previously if he was or would be good enough he would have been given the goal kicking duties as he is by far the best we have.

Same could be said for Myler.

Myler has been the best of a bad bunch this season at half back. I'm not sure O'Brien has a future at half back with us unfortunately, he's had chances but never shown that star quality for me. He has a SL future, but not sure it will be with us.

That's pretty much my feelings on Myler. To be honest I think the only one that does have a future is Ratchford, by virtue of his versatility. I can see Myler going back to Salford or elsewhere, GOB moving on and us bringing in one (or even two) fresh half-backs from overseas.

Evans
Atkins
Bridge
Monaghan
Mick Monas
Myler
Hill
Higham
Asotasi
Waterhouse
Currie
Harrison

Dwyer
England
Wood
Laithwaite

MAJOR high back signing for the 2015 season. This year we were left short because of Lee's unplanned retirement.

I'm just happy there's no Riley names in the squad!

Agreed. I'm sure Simon Moran knows that by now and is already preping.

I'd be willing to bet that last year when Myler was the stand-out scrum-half in the league you was saying how good he was.

Not me.
I've always thought we might struggle to accommodate him as a hb.
