how does he get big games? dreadful

A church came with a pretty decent rep from Oz. Hindsight is a fine thing!!

No bans from llast week

seem to remember achurch came with no reputation as nobody had heard of him!

possibly had has many sl players do well without reputations as those that failed with reputations then there was vickery

Trying to imagine a Leeds - HKR final with Ryan Hall playing against us….

I reckon I’m 40% for a Leeds win against Saints. I reckon we will match them down the middle this time.

If Kendall is ref then our chances are certainly reduced. How he has got the semi final I will never know.

Same squad as last week, so no Gale.

I could see Mellor and/or King coming in this week.

Myler
Briscoe Newman Briscoe Handley
Lui Leeming
Thompson Dwyer Prior
Martin Donaldson
Tetevano

Hurrell Oledzki Holroyd Smith

Broadbent, Gannon, Vuniyayawa, Mellor

Either that or Hurrell starts with Mellor on the bench.

I expect at least one of them will play this week

I would change Donaldson for Mellor if he is fit

I would also change Thompson and start with Holroyd and then King on the bench instead of Thompson. I know King has a mistake in him but he can bang in D and is difficult to handle. Thompson is more of a steady away player but doesn’t even do big minutes. Rather put all our big men in and try and dominate them up front. When was the last time anybody did that to Saints? If we could then I think we have a shout. If we can only keep it on par in the middle then they will expose us out wide , especially if Lomax is playing

It all depends who's fit enough doesn't it? Hurrell and King look like they're struggling to me. Big call to put Mellor back in to this game straight from injury lay-off, but again if he's fit I think he might beef us up a bit in that back row.

Agree we need to attempt to challenge them down the middle, I guess as with every game. I can't see us defending Saints to nil and we are going to have to score some points against them.

Gannon might come in for Thompson, with Donaldson moving to be bench and Oledzki starting too.
