We don't have a choice in the backs. One of the forwards will be playing there. Not enough numbers. Rather Mariano than Hendo or Morrison. They are needed in pack.

J. Davey & P. Johnson- Miss Out

Only saying Paul Johnson to miss out because I personally think he deserves a rest. If I'm not mistaken, he's played every game this season, including the pre-season games, without a rest.
Anybody know where Griffin is?

Griffin wasn't named in the squad for the Cas game and played so although he isn't in the squad he may still play.

For me Davey and Mccarthy to miss out.

Korkidas & Davey to miss out. Henderson in the centres based purely on the fact that he has plenty of experience playing in that position. Korki to give his injury extra recovery time unless one of the other props isn't 100%.

Griffin wasn't named in the Cas squad yet played 80 mins. Not doing my fantasy team any good, I dropped him following the squad announcement and lost out on 4 conversions and a try

. Have put him back in now.

How we can name a squad for Monday when we haven't assessed injuries from last night yet is beyond me. Think JK will have a clearer idea of his squad come 11am Monday.

lets not get carried away

in reality we probably won't need a goal kicker for monday.....

Harsh, but if we haven't learned how to defend the "3 dummy runners" move, then you may well be right.

Not looking forward to this one - Wigan's style of play and attitude to the game bring out the Duncan Bannatyne in me - "it's not for me; I'm out."

With bungle and zippy

You asked for that!!!

Preferred Pipkins myself.

think bj got an injury in training

We need people with pace in the centres against wigans attack, not slow aussie plodders.

is griffin in the squad? i noticed he was not on friday nights also but played?

wheres griffin? i think hyde or howarth to kick the goals in that matter

www.superleague.co.uk/preview.php?id=6023 morton, gledhill and vievers?

all three are capable of a first team place why is it crazy

Griffin was carrying an arm injury

i mean that they weren't listed on the other 19 man sqaud

Rinaldi, Mariano & Higgins disappeared from the squad.

If those 3 don't play then our team is weakened especially with Rinaldi and Mariano missing out.

It will mean that Wilie will get a longer spell to show what he can do and also Davey who i think has a bright future.

I would presume that Gledhill will come in for Higgins and will get a chance to prove to Kear that he is ready for a 1st team place.

Higgins out due to knee prob in training this morn and mariano out with thumb damage ,Luke George shoulder,should be ok for next week.corky ok for wigan game.

With Davey, Wildie on we need to play as fast a game as possible and play some good expansive rugby ala last 20 vs Cas.

If we go for the forward battle we may come up short. Chips over the line and some fast dummy half runs aplenty on the sunny turf of bv.

I agree. We should go out all guns blazing and throw the ball around because i feel that if we just try and run it up the middle the Wigan pack will have a bit too much for ours.

It was good to see when we opened up and chanced our arm but there's the risk that we can chance our arm too much ala Cas.

I feel we need to take chances in this game and play to our strengths (which isn't in the forwards) not that they don't put in creditable performances mind you

I also cocur, it was nice to see us move the ball about on fri night, don't like the one-man rugby.
