Will it be on ,snow all week ?

Pitch is covered, terracing could be the problem.

Will dave be fit going on pauli post on insta he may not.hope he gets well soon

Maybe
No
Yes
No

Unless we have injuries, wholesale changes would be a mistake, continuity is the best thing for any side, especially when we are 3/3.
Horo did have a mare in Perpignan but four changes plus, a possible change at 9 (if Wood is injured ?) would be too many.

Sounds like most of changes will be forced on us - big Dave and wood injured , Finn possibly to miss out possibly horo -

Going to be a test on Friday can’t wait

What's wrong with Fifita?

And Finn, what's wrong with Finn?

I think the poster is making some huge assuptions regarding Finn.

Nothing wrong with Fifita as far as I could tell.

Didn’t see you at game but he was holding wrist after match and then Pauli made a tweet commenting on it - your right re Finn none at disciplinary banned

But if mcb Hirst kirmond and arundel are going to play then at least 2 forwards aren’t in team that played

There’s a photo going round of Fifita in hospital.

its a must win in my eyes with the 5 games we have coming up after this- the best team must be picked- rest players in the next 5 games!!

Another must win???

The bloke an abosolute slave driver and should be coach



That said it is a bit of a must win but nothing to do with points or position in the table - just can't bare Shudds.

Think I read somewhere at the start of the season we were targeting 3 out of our first 4. We will still go for it but can see a few rested, Im happy with that it's a marathon not a sprint.

Up the Trin

Chris Chester said the target was four of the first five. Next two games we are both capable of winning but we'll have to play better than the last two. Suppose these next two games will show whether we have so far been a good team winning while not at our best or whether we're not as good as we'd like to think we are.

Resting players may , unfortunately, put off the ditherers
Difficult one.

Although it's still 3 days off yet, BBC weather not currently forecasting any snow for Thursday or Friday but temps struggling to get above freezing, so a frozen pitch cannot yet be ruled out

I ask again - when we will they be allowed to lose a game?

Wakefield just put a video on with a big cover and heater on the pitch, all being well that should be fine Friday

Big game for us, always felt Huddersfield are one of our bogey teams.. Injuries to our hookers and resting players be interesting to see how we line up. I would line up like this:
Grix
Johnstone
Tupou
MCB (Dont want him to be left vulnerable from Broughys kicks as he is suspect under the highball IMO)
BJB
Miller
Finn
England
Ashurst
Huby
Kirmond
Horo/Arundel
Arona

Hirst
Hampshire
Baldwinson
Pauli Pauli

This is me thinking Fifita wont play due to his ribs

Don't get that team at all Accurst hooker



MCB centre



Arundel S/R when we have Anakin/Batch/Crowther to chose from





My apologies if I'm getting it wrong.

Nah I don't either but could be just a mistake tbh.

I'd have Hampshire cover hooker (could even bring in Hiddlestone? who played in the reserve game the other day who played well) and maybe start Annakin or Batchelor in the back row and maybe stick Horo on the bench. Give Arundel a game in the instead of Lyne.

Not too sure why your shocked at him putting Ashurst at hooker, he's very competent there and has played there a few times for us a few seasons back.

Apparently Crowther might be an option at 9 as well.
