Burrow's wife said last week that he had a grade 2 tear on his quad. I know he is a physio himself, but I would guess he won't be back until the Huddersfield game.

Yeah, rethinking:

1. Hardaker
2. Briscoe
3. Watkins
4. Moon
5. Hall
13. Sinfield
6. McGuire
8. Leuluai
24. Ward R
30. Garbutt
16. Achurch
20. Keinhorst
14. Ward S

15. Delaney
17. Cuthbertson
19. Singeton
29. Lilley

Playing ward at loose forward might help with the lack of ball players with Sinfield playing 9?

Hardaker
Briscoe Watkins Moon Hall
Golding McGuire
Garbutt Sinfield Peacock
Ablett Ward
Cuthbertson

Singleton Leuluai Delaney Keinhorst/Achurch/Burrow

Sadly, I think Robbie Ward has played his last game for Leeds as I'm surprised he wasn't in the squad last week.

Strongest team possible for the next 2 imo,get this top spot sewn up and rest half the team at Hudds in the last game.

Totally agree. We need to get back to winning ways. It will be tough over in France so we need to send the strongest team we can.

Not only that, but let's be honest, Wigan drawing level will only breed panic, it is just natural. With two further tough games to come, a win this week would remove any pressure.

Hardaker shouldn't be a doubt, he was okay enough to run round playing football tonight.

Running on it was probably never a problem, more the landing on the ground with it when tackling/being tackled.

With the type of injury is was, I'd assume the main issue would be running, stretching the skin causing it to tear back open, strapping it would have protected it enough in a tackle, plus if it was still bad enough to keep him out I doubt even he'd be silly enough to run round with legs faffing at all heights.

If Hardaker and Watkins are fit I'd go

1 - Hardaker
2 - Briscoe
3 - Watkins
4 - Keinhorst
5 - Hall
6 - Moon
7 - McGuire
8 - Garbutt
9 - Sinfield
10 - Peacock
11 - Ward
12 - Ablett
13 - Cuthbertson

14 - Leuluai
15 - Singleton
16 - Achurch
17 - Delaney (tempted to put Lilley but would he get more than 7/8 mins?, rather rotate the forwards more in that case)

Whilst not bashing Golding like Worlds Apart, I think the suggestion on the other thread that he play 6 is a big ask of him to come in and do at this point of the year. Moon has experience, maybe not loads at HB but in terms of first team games and big games.

The simple solution is to play Sinfield at six and Robbie Ward at nine. Gets your best player back in his proper position.

Won't happen though.

Hardakers back but still no Burrow or watkins. Could be a tough ask but much will depend if the dragons have already clocked off. Theyre never easy at home though

And is it their last game of the season at home?
Might want to finish with some glory in front of their fans.
