Next up... Leigh away.

Grix reporting that Ese'ese could be back and there's a potential debut for Jed Cartwright. Presumably Sam Eseh will play. You'd imagine Charles will be brought back in. Couple of HIAs, I haven't watched the Sky coverage do I don't know if anyone has been ruled out.

What are the chances that in the run up to the game Leigh announce that Lachlan Lam has turned down an offer from Hull and signed a new two year deal with the Leopards. And obviously he'll run the show next week.

Am I right in thinking Jebson came on as 18th man, would mean 3 HIA's I think.

If we can I'd drop Fash, send out a message, last two home games he has played in, he has let the tean down with is stupidity.

Grix didn't sound too confident about Ese Ese coming back so I reckon Eseh will come in, I think Chamberlain, Laidlaw definitely went off with head knocks not sure who else, anyone going to the game make sure to take your boots you might get a game.

We really need Tuesday's battle of the borough to be a battle.

Fingers crossed EseEse is fit, he's probably just got a bad back from carrying the pack all year

I thought it had changed to 2?…agree with Fash being dropped

Yes think it’s two now

Walker
Barron
Carlos
Briscoe
Martin
Trueman
Charles
Ese Ese
Smith
Aydin
Lane
Cartwright
Fash

Chan
Balmforth
Eseh
Gardiner

Degsy's revenge

I’d drop Fash to the Reserves for the next 2 weeks to show we will no longer tolerate his stupid indiscipline. Hopefully it will send out a message to others. Ligi should also return via the Reserves. He’s also let the team down due to his indiscipline.

Perhaps this will help improve the club’s culture going forward.

Fash and Lane banned

Chamberlain and Laidlaw failed hia’s?
Lane and Fash banned, unless we get a few back we will be struggling to put a 17 out.

Fash has really let the club done the last two games he has played.

Really struggling in the game, so I'll do a shoulder charge (why) which is also late. I'd drop him for the game after too. At least Sao has been playing well, Fash has been pretty poor too.

Hopefully Ese Ese, Cartwright will play along with a debut for Eseh.

I'd go with

Walker
Martin
Carlos
Briscoe
Barron
Charles
Trueman
Ese Ese
Smith
Aydin
Ruan
Cartwright
Gardiner

Chan
Balmforth
Jebson
Eseh

I don't think we can afford Balmforth and Moy on the bench.

Season goes from bad to worse. 3 out with bans, 3 failed hia's and christ knows how many injuries. I'll discipline costing us dear this year

Agreed on Fash, if he wasn’t from Hull he’d be getting absolutely berated.

We are banking on Ese and Cartwright being fit, hopefully they are but if not we will really be struggling.

Really down to bare bones now, are there any other academy lads near a debut? But even then aren't there salary cap implications when you give someone a game?

We need Wigan-Leigh to be absolute battle tomorrow night, multiple cards and bans handed out.

I bet they wouldn’t do a separate disciplinary for one game, just do it next Monday as usual.

Oh yeh, we get no luck do we!

Can we just forfeit this one

Realistically our season whilst its "over" is all about saving face after the shambles of a start we had and the unprecedented mid season upheaval we have seen, the main part of that lets be honest is two things.

1. Improve performances and be more competitive (Achieved so far)
2. DO NOT FINISH BOTTOM

Subsequently our biggest game in the coming weeks is in Leeds against the Broncos, we cannot under any circumstances regardless of the rules in place, finish bottom, we would always have that thrown at us. I personally think from the last rounds left to go we have 3 WINNABLE games, Cas away, Leeds at home, London at magic, if we can win two of those we will be fine, i fully expect us to get well beat at Leigh on the weekend given the level of depletion in the squad but if we can have Fash, Lane, EseEse, Cartwright, Chamberlain and Sao all back and ready for the game at Magic weekend i think that's much more important at this stage.

Probably be better taking the 48-0 rather than what the actual result would be

The most serious dilemma is who is going to kick the goals with Lane missing!

Cas is at home and Leeds is away.

Are we going to have another August on slump? Hammering between now and the spend of the season as per usual? Probably be the straw that breaks the camels back for me
