Smith and McShane to miss out.

I think thats how we'll line up. Maybe a swap between McGuire and Burrow.

I suspect you're right. I would have gone with Lauitiiti instead of Hauraki or Kirke, though.

Burrow 7, Sinfield 13, McShane bench, Clarkson/Smith out.

Is Ali injured that Kirke & Clarkson are in ahead of him?

Can't really argue that we're not at full strength for this one.

When both fit Weller seems well in front of Ali with the coaches selection.

I can safely presume this will be Ali's last year.

Who needs Columbo when I'm around.

He seems a bit opinionated for me Mac. He either likes you or he doesn't. Cross, Burgess, Clarkson, McShane, Ali, Hardaker, Smith and Burrow don't seem to be the most popular on occasions. Whereas McGuire, Kirke and Hauraki he seems to always play.

Leaving Ali out at this stage is a big mistake by McDumbnut played very well at the KC and at Salford what exactley does he have to do to get in front of turnstyle weller

Not happy at all

I'd suggest that over the last 10+ matches Weller has played, since he had a stint in the reserves, his defence is much improved. Ali is good for impact, for 10 minutes per half, but tires very quickly and his defence is very questionable.

Then there`s Kirke who offers ermm .........

I think you've got it bang on there

I'd like us to go with:

Webb, BJB, Delaney, Watkins, Hall, McGuire, Burrow, Bailey, Buderus, Peacock, JJB, Ablett, Sinfield. Leuluai, McShane, Hauraki, Kirke.

But I think we'll go with:

Webb, Smith, Watkins, Ablett, Hall, Sinfield, McGuire, Leuluai, Buderus, Peacock, JJB, Delaney, Clarkson. Bailey, Burrow, Hauraki, Kirke.

bit of news... Rangi Chase was always going to be playing for castleford this weekend.
