| I don't think it will be too hard to guess the team. Thewliss, Wrench, Butler and Robson to miss out. Ashton, Walker, Philbin and Mulhern on the bench.
Providing of course someone doesn't trip over a blade of grass during training and injure their fetlock.

I was wondering about Philbin. Do you think he was given the 13 as an ego thing? I really don't like Hughes and Clark J on the pitch at the same time, but prefer the impact Philbin makes off the bench. Could Robson work as a 13?

they were using him as a middle(when he got on the pitch) last year, size wise he's the same as philbs and clark, so he should fit price's scheme

| I like Robson for a bench spot. With Currie and Hughes able to move into centre and Mamo capable across the backline I don’t see a need for a back on the bench.
Harsh on Ashton (assuming he’s not starting over Lineham) but not worth a passenger

Forecast is it's a bit too cold this weekend.
Or maybe :
"(Steve Price) confirmed in his pre-match press conference this week that Greg Inglis would not feature in Round 1, stating: "He’ll just miss out this week but he’s getting very close. Greg is a real humble, genuine guy. He’s been class since he arrived. He is a natural footballer and is a really good asset for our club." "

That would be my guess. And as Price is nothing but conservative I suspect he will not risk Wrench.

I think Robson could certainly do a job at 13. I think him and Thewliss are getting pretty close to SL standard. Clark doesn't really take the ball up whereas Robson will have a go so he certainly adds more than Clark's defensive contribution. But Robson missed a tackle in the Leigh match that led to the Brierly try and that will not have been lost on Price, so I can't see him squeezing Clark out of his spot yet.

| Doro can count himself to be very unlucky to miss out as he looked much more of a handful than both Robson and Butler last week.

I actually thought Jason Clark looked livelier in the friendly than he did at any point last season. Surprised me a little to be honest. You're right about Thewliss and Robson - both banging on the door now.

I had exactly the same thoughts about Clark, he certainly looked very active. It could be that he has had a really good pre-season or the cynic might think he has a fair bit more competition this year and wanted to catch the eye. Perhaps he is also thinking about staying another year ? He will be 32 in June and I guess he will not get a gig in Oz.

I think it's a bit unfair saying that picking Mamo is conservative it's important that we get off to a strong start so pick your best team there'll be plenty of time and opportunities for the squad to kick in.
Whilst he might be behind King and Inglis in the Centre, Ratchord and Ashton at FB and Lineham and Charnley out wide, he can play in all three positions. I thought he was quick but a bit 'flakey' (based on limited viewing) when at Huddersfield, but he did well last year and I enjoyed watching him, a bit of a character.

Fair enough. I think I meant he knows what he can get from Mamo whereas Wrench is very inexperienced and a bit of a moving feast. Yes, I think Mamo did well last year and his speed is a big advantage particularly in the last quarter. Price made it sound as though he had a really tough choice between the two but I suspect he had already made his mind up before the Leigh game as to who he would pick.

| No matter what he does, unless we have a major injury crisis, we won't see Sita playing this year.
Ratch, Charnley, Mamo, King, Tommy, Austin, Widdop, Hill, Daryl, Coops, Currie, Hughes, Philbin, Subs J.Clark, Ashton, Mulhern, Walker. Miss out - Butler (unlucky), Robson (unlucky), Wrench, Thewlis.
Personally I'd start with JC at 13 and Joe on the bench.

| According to Sky News on the SL round up, we had doubts over Cooper and Hughes.

Based on what I've seen for the last couple of years, I've got major doubts on Jason Clark....and it's not injuries

I'm not sure about robson, I haven't seen anything other than steady. He looks very much like Jason Clark to me but I can't for sure say he has the same defensive attributes despite having the same limited attacking impact. Thewlis on the other ha d
comes in to the side when we have injuries and does brilliantly. He's a serious talent IMO but I feel robson has a long way to go to prove his credentials.

Don’t hang the lad out to dry yet .He come off the bench twice last year at prop, a position he hadn’t played. He started against salford and if you remember hit a line to go through to score but it was ruled forward . Last Friday Leigh attacked down Warringtons right edge and Warrington always went left to attack so if you don’t get any ball and defend all game what can he do.I think he will be a great player with more games under his belt . Doro , thewlis ,Robson, etc all need a run of games then it will prove if they are good enough .

| The Warrington Guardian seem to have joined us in picking / predicting the likely team. They have been a bit more adventurous in going for Wrench at centre in preference to Mamo, and have Robson on the bench instead of Ashton. They also switched Clark and Philbin between the bench with Philbin starting.

| Hope when Inglis does play his performances are better than on the Sky game. Sounded like he knew nothing about our comp. Looked like he had been introduced to the pies as well and I don't mean Wigan.

To be clear, I'm not saying he won't be a good player I just haven't seen anything yet that has made me take note. Saw it early with Toby King and Grix and I see Dean and Thewlis the same. Ultimately I don't understand the calls for robson to be in at this stage, his chance will come and if he takes it (which I hope he does) then he moves closer to his spot and that's the way it should be for me. Same goes with doro, not seen anything special yet but that doesn't mean I won't. Not writing anyone off at this stage.
