Massive game which makes or breaks our season, we haven't beat them for a few years home or away (don't really count the game after the cup final), need to treat this game like we did on Friday, they have an awful away record.

I'd bring back Shaul and play Rankin at 6, as he could work well with Sneyd. Paea is for Ellis is the other obvious change and play tomo is the backrow from the bench.

On a side note I have doubled booked (Didn't realise it was a Thursday) and can't go, is it possible to record skygo or can you download the game from skygo as soon as the game has finished?

The gossip factory will go into overdrive if our young full-back doesn't get a game.

its in overdrive already lol

If your not counting the game after Wembley its been over 6 years since we beat them.

It's a larf though, innit?

It's well over 50 years since I attended a match when we beat them!

Good chance for us to maybe get the 6th spot too. Cant see Catalans getting anything at Leeds and Warrington play Cas but might have one eye on the CC semi.

Leeds might have one eye on their semi too

ive spent a lot of time saying id play shaul over rankin. Last few weeks have blown me out the water on that front. So I wouldnt change it now. Hes been great at 1 and without being overly harsh I dont think hes been gash at 6 most times hes played there. Abdul would get the 6gig for me. Brilliant all considered on friday.
also we had the best kicking game we've had for some time. Mainly I think because it was 3pronged(sneyd,abdul,and houghton) &they didnt know how to close it down. Bit easier when its just sneyd. Id look to continue that

Never understood why Houghton doesn't kick more, every time he does tends to be a decent kick into the corner and keeps ball in play

That would be my team but think it will be Abdul at 6 with westy 13 and whiting at 11

I agree with the stuff about Rankin staying at 1. For a while I wanted to see Shaul make it it his own but Rankin was superb last few games

To avoid a long trip to France in the Super 8's, we must avoid finishing 8th.
A win against Wigan will prevent that happening.

If Cats beat Leeds on Sunday by one point, and we lose by one point, our current +3 points advantage would just save us.

Why on earth would you drop abdul? Rankin is not a pivot, he's a runner and a very good dangerous runner at that.

Rankin has been disappointing whilst playing pivot, but that's wish, Horne, Pryce and Abdul, I don't think he has ever played with Sneyd.

Abdul isn't been dropped he would be on the bench like last week.

I think we will be stronger with Shaul, rankin and Sneyd compared to rankin, Abdul and Sneyd.

Only player charged this weekend is Larroyer of Rovers.

No surprise. watts' hit on kelly was superb

Leeds require a win to finish top after the regular season (assuming saints beat kr) so will most probably be going for it

Rankin has been superb at full back these past few weeks. He was immaculate against Rovers. He was much less impressive at half back and it would be a mistake to move him to accommodate Shaul.

Catalans away record must be worse than even Wigan's is it not??? They'll get nowt from Leeds!!!

Plus they will be without Whitehead who was well out last saturday no way he will play.Casty and Pelissier are big doubts
