Swinton are obviously coming off the back of a good win and so will be in confident mood. We have to suffer the blow of having had Bibey suspended for 1 match, so how does everyone think we will/should line up?

Duffy might be touch and go, so I'd go for-
McAnally
Maden
Littler
Gardiner
Pownall
Brieley
Ridyard
Hopkins
Nicholson
Gallagher
Taylor
Briscoe
Beswick
Worrincy
Clay
Dual
Dual

Is Parker unavailable? You've left him out I think Dave.

Forwards Parker Nico Hopkins Laithwaite Goulden Taylor. On the bench Ostick Twinkle Toes and Briscoe.

Poo forgot about Parker, swap him for Gallagher.

Russell
Pownall
Gardner
Littler
Maden
Riddy
Brierley
Parker
Duffy
Hopkins
Laithwaite
Goulden if fit
Taylor


McNally
Beswick
Gallagher
Worrincy

Assuming Duffy and Goulden are fit and Russell is in the Wigan squad.

McNally
Maden
Gardner
Littler
Pownall
Ridyard
Brierley
Hopkins
Duffy
Parker
Laithwaite
Goulden
Taylor

Beswick
Ostick
Gallagher
Worrincy

1.Macnally
2.Maden
3.Littler .

7.Riddy .
8.Parker .

Hopkins at 11 and 15 we signed another one ?

Russell
Maden
Littler
Gardner
Pownall
Ridyard
McNally
Parker
Beswick
Gallagher
Taylor
Goulden
Briscoe

Subs
Laithwaite
Hopkins
Duffy (Nicholson if no Duffy)
Brierley

If no Russell start McNally at FB and Worrincey on bench, Brierley to H/B

My Medication is to strong , imust cut it down .

McNally
Clay
Maden
Gardner
Pownall

Ridyard
Brierley

Parker
Duffy
Gallagher
Littler
Goulden/Laithwaite (depends if Goulden is back fit or not)
Taylor

Nicolson/Beswick
Hopkins
Ostick
Briscoe/Worrincy

Matts team for me.

One of our Lions fans has suggested the following for the Swinton side on Friday. This side would need little encouragement :

Mort; Reay, Armstrong, Gorski, Higson; Ainscough, Watson; Mills, McConnell, Morrison, Meekin, Wingfield, Cunniffe.

Very interesting selection i think although i would swap Gorski and Cunniffe round.

Looking forward to a great game on Friday

That side would obviously need no introduction to us Leythers and as you point out Riggy, wouldn't need any motivating. There are some talented players in that team. I imagine Steve will be sticking with the team that played so well against Batley? That side contained it's fair share of Leythers too, if not quite 13. Really looking forward to the match. Should be an intriguing battle. Let's hope everyone turns out to give this game the crowd it deserves.

McNally
Pownall, Gardner, Littler, Worrincy
Ridyard, Brierley
Parker, Beswick, Taylor
Laithwaite, Goulden
Hopkins

Gallagher
Briscoe
Nicholson
Ostick

I wouldn't change a thing from Friday. Although Duffy may be left out depending on how he's responded this week.

I think you'd struggle for subs though, only having 13 ex-Leythers in your squad!

I think Russel will be in the 19 for Friday so I dont reckon he will play so i'd go with

1. Mcnally
2. Maden
3. Litler
4. Gardner
5. Pownall
6. Riddy
7. Brierly
8. Parker
9. Duffy
10. Hopkins
11. Goulden
12. Laithwaite
13. Beswick

14. Nico
15. Taylor
16. Gallagher
17. Worrincy

Beswick has to play 13 his kicking game in the first half was class. Hes not a halfback however I think loose would be his ideal position. Try Duffy at 9 and see how it goes!

This.

Think Riddy, Brierley, Duffy and Beswick playing in the main 4 positions would terrify most teams.

No Bibey?

Bibey is banned TV BOY. That is how I started the thread, saying that we would have to contend with his absence, so how did everyone reckon we should line up.

Mental note to ones self. Must pay more attention.

Apparently Russell is NOT in Wigans squad for Fridays game against Saints , so hopefully he will be in our squad for the Swinton game ,Charlie says Centurions 28 v Swinton 14 , but dont tell Marshy





.

shouldn't be in Leighs squad CC. Full Back and wingers are more than covered - good as he may be its no good the guy turning up once a month, not fair on the rest of the squad
