a break from the league which is a bonus as the past few weeks have been terrible!

sunday eve and on sky this one, only £10 in so no excuses for some to get down and cheer the lads on

hopefully gaskell will be back for this one against his former club too and our attack will improve... mcintosh to make up for last week too?!

cant see a win but a drop goal without bentham reffing this time would be nice

I can’t see many attending this one regardless of the price. Saints currently unbeaten, giants playing badly.
Wardle and Gaskell back would be nice.
I have a feeling we won’t see Gaskell though.

Could have Gaskell, English, Joe Wardle, Seb, Ferguson and Jake Warlde back. Line up is going to be interesting.

If all back I think I'd go:

Darnell
Jerry
Turner
Wardle/Innes
Uate
Gaskell
Frawley
Matagi
Leeming
Clough
Wardle
Mellor
Murphy

Taai
English
O Brien
Seb/Ferguson

I can see us giving them a scare for the first half and then getting well beaten in the 2nd half.

Really is about time Uate steps up this week. If he has another poor performance then he should be dropped for a few weeks. Have no doubt Naiqama will have a field day on the right for St Helens.

not sure they would throw ferguson straight in after such a lay off.

jake wardle

Bruno will be out with a ban.

Might have to be given Seb might not be fit and Bruno is suspended. Suppose Roberts and Hewitt are still in the mix.

You always laugh at Jake but if hes fit he will probably play. He wasn't right during the Easter weekend and you could tell that.

Quite deservedly, in an ideal world he should be banned for as long as his victim Tinny Arona is out of the game, and in case your wondering that's the rest of the season.

Muppet

Yep.

yeh rare for him, even to give a penalty away!

joe wardle, murphy and mellor id say they will go with then... murphy loose forward

yeh roberts and hewitt will be before fergy... prob give fergy some mins in the hull kr match

shame no reserves anymore for these players coming back from injury but that will change next season.

yeh got to laugh to predict jake wardle will play a game with his record

Yep that's exactly what I thought as well Waterloo Whinger , there was no need for the reckless tackle at all.

Which reckless tackle was this? I only ask because the RFL have not released any minutes of their decisions this week- so you must obviously have been present? Or you are just making assumptions....

Have a look at the RFL disciplinary hearing minutes Bruno got one match ban for dangerous contact with Kirmond

Muppet

He won’t be back- now he knows he’s made himself look sooooooo ridiculously stupid he will stay away....






I warned em on their board they were making massive assumptions but they were too busy taking part in their Mass waving of pitchforks.

Been told Jake is fit and should play on Sunday.

Uate having an op so out for a while

Yeah heard Uate out for 2 months. At this stage, wont be a loss in any way shape or form. But hopefully he gets sorted, gets fit and comes back to show what he can do. Heard Seb is still out too but Gaskell, Jake & Fergie are fit. We will line up like:

Darnell
Jerry
Turner
Wardle
I Senior
Gaskell
Frawley
Matagi
Leeming
Clough
Mellor
Wardle
Murphy

Taai
English
O Brien
Ferguson/Roberts/Hewitt

Is it the right game to bring someone back who hasn't played for a year?

Good. We won’t miss what he’s offered so far, and hopefully this will make him better and we will get a positive contribution from him after. In the meantime our youngsters get more experience.

Other than defensive implications, I'd rather have Russell in the team over Frawley from what I've seen this year

not been right all season, looks like they have finally bitten the bullet to try get him right

senior to take over maybe

I would play the reserves. Sooner we are out of the cup the better. Survival is the only goal for the season .
Then a clear out of the dead wood and nurse the sick lame and injured for next season

That’s the spirit

Yea, shouldn't risk Sicknote Gaskell in this one, or he will be missing the week after for sure

I disagree. Our season is over with regards to top 5. We won't get relegated. This is our only hope of success.

Squad update:

Dale "just another week" Ferguson is still a week off. (Heard that about 10 times)

Jake Wardle still a week off

Darnell
Jerry
Turner
Innes
Louis
Gaskell
Frawley
Matagi
Leeming
Clough
Mellor
Wardle
Murphy

Taai
O Brien
English
Roberts/Hewitt

Or will we see Gaskell at centre and Russell in the halves?
