Anscough is rumoured to have been seen in A&E on Sunday night having his hand stitched up. With Carmont and Bailey both facing "a race against time" to be fit for Friday, I hope Ainscough's injury isn't too serious, otherwise it could be an interesting selection on Friday.

He won't get picked anyway, Carmont will most probably be back

With all 3 out i think we should be able to cope with:

Phelps
Roberts
Gleeson
Pryce
Richards

I haven't seen Pryce since he came back from injury, but have been impressed with his performances in the reserves before it. I think he has the skill and potential to go far. He needs to get fitter and put more effort in and he will be a not only a blockbuster but a creator as well.

I know it is all very well in theory and it is a big step from reserves to Super League, but I live in hope.

S.Tomkins
Roberts
Gleeson
Phelps
Richards
Pryce
Leuluai/Smith

Pryce has so much ability but IMO still lacks fitness and enthusiasm. At Warrington on Saturday he scored a great try from short range and made another, but for much of the game he was his usual "laid back" self. Will he ever get to the pace of a game I really don't know if he has that in him. If he doesn't it's a shame because no doubt he has the talent and size.

in relation to this, do you not think that all that time in reserves and the added buzz of a cup match might bring it out in him. I'll be honest, i don't have a clue but we can live in hope eh?

Surely he'd be stiched up by the medical team in house?

Can't think why he wouldn't be really

I think it was an accident not related to rugby, and on Sunday night, although not ideal at any time, would be the only place to go.
