To throw some of the youngsters into the mix to create some competition for places come the play offs??

It would also be handy to give some players a rest.

I would go for

1. Maden
2. Stanton
3. Blythe
4.alstead
5. Smith
6. Ridyard
7. Paul
8. Meekin
9. Duffy
10. Armitstead
11. Taylor
12. Hopkins
13. Goulden

14. Nicholson
15. Ainscough
16. Hill
17. Morrison

now is definitly not the time to blood youngsters, i'd think we need our strongest squad playing going into the playoffs.

cant see Riddy, Maden and maybe Nanyn playing this weekend. All DC players will play if available, Army to return make the team out of that!!

As much as I think Martin Ridyard should be in there he still looks leggy and carrying an injury.

Thats why he wont play

pownall, ant nic, hopkins all in for me against toulouse, nanyn in the second rows with army

Need pace away from the ruck - play Nicholson
Need pace outwide - play Pownall
Need a running back row - play Hopkins

If they cut it great if not then they have time next year

At the L.I.S.A meeting Millward said there is going to be a change in halfbacks. He won't drop Robbie so the question is who's filling in for Riddy

Anyone but Durbin

Halfbacks will likely be Duffs and Robbie. Nicholson on the bench.

Nanyn second row ?

We cannot leave Bibey out or Donlan imo. Oh that is in regard to the suggested team which has been posted.

As 4th place is now guaranteed, perhaps Robbie could do with a week off to rest - he isn't getting any younger, has had a tough season and will need to be fresh and at his best for the play-offs.

Think Durbin gone, that s what i heard anyway. Duffs 7, Robbie 6, Jock 9 and Ant Nic rotating hooker

Millward said at the LISA meeting that Matty will be eligable for the playoffs as could Mitchell because the time hes spent injured could count towards the percentage he has to meet, if he can prove he was injure(he apparently can), however now Wire are at Wembley, cant see them letting us have him much now.
Whereas unit's looking for a club for next season. We should make him a proirtity signing....

Wouldn't give up on 3rd yet by any means

Barrow have Dewsbury (A), Widnes (H) and Fev (A) remaining. Thats 3 games in 8 days. We could do with them losing at least two of them, but we would probably have to win both ours

Widnes are an exceptionally good side as we have seen when we have played them over the last couple of seasons so I expect them to be ruthless against Sheffield and Barrow.

Can't see Barrow getting even a bonus point from their last 3 games so we will definately finish third.

I expect Fax to win at Fev and eventually we will beat them at Post Office road to then go on and win the final.

Now that should wind a few opposing fans up but they should be aware we Leythers have a great record in forcasting.
