There was something mentioned a couple of weeks ago saying he was actually going to be out slightly longer - injury not healing as well as it should or something...

New target I believe is the final game before the league split.

He was targeting the Hull cup game but a set back in his recovery set him back 2-3 weeks

Saints looked tired yesterday, plus they only have a few days turn around before Friday game. So everything points at Leeds to do the business. So expect a Saints win!

If Garbutt is fit and ready then think we could see:

Peacock
Aiton
Leuluai
Ward
Ablett
Cuthbertson

Burrow
Delaney
Singleton
Garbutt

With Keinhorst dropping out even though he's played well. That's if McGuire's fit. If he's not then we'd start Burrow and run Keinhorst on a 4 forward bench because I couldn't see Robbie Ward getting much game time.

I agree the big Saints forwards at times looked very tired with the exception of the inform Wilkins and big Mose who were both dangerous. We should aim to run their forwards around a bit in the heat - Burrow could be just the man for the job..

I would give Garbutt a run as we need to be getting over the gain line and making them tackle. Should be a cracker.

Should be a great game. Saints have a very good record at our place in recent times and will really fancy their chances. We will have to be at our best to take the points

Looks all set to be a sell-out.
Very few seated tickets left.
If you need a ticket don't leave it till the last minute.
Should be a cracker.

Joe Greenwood cited so could well miss the game.
We've no disciplinary issues this week.

Would go with:

1. Hardaker
27. Handley
3. Watkins
4. Moon
5. Hall
13. Sinfield
6. McGuire / 7. Burrow
8. Leuluai
9. Aiton
30. Garbutt
12. Ablett
14. Ward
19. Singleton

7. Burrow / 24. Ward
10. Peacock
15. Delaney
17. Cuthbertson

Hardaker
Handley
Watkins
Moon
Hall
Sinfield
Mags
JP
Aiton
Singleton
S.Ward
Ablett
Cuthbertson

Kylie
Garbutt
Delaney
Burrow

The most farcical thing ever. Anyone would think he was playing Leeds at the weekend. If he gets banned for that the game has gone mad, it was ridiculous that he's even been referred for it. The spin is due to momentum and at no point does he turn the ankle, he ensures it's facing in it's natural direction at all times. If that is worth a ban, any tackle around the legs must also be a ban. To make it worse they also told Luke Walsh off, when he was receiving far worse treatment from the Widnes player kneeling on the leg he broke last year.

The disciplinary is an utter farce currently. James Green of Hull KR gets a 1 match ban for a deliberate and totally premeditated attack to Travis Burn's head using a banned technique that resulted in a broken cheekbone, and Greenwood is down for 2-3 games for tackling someone by the ankle.

He'll be fine if gets himself the same brief as Sneyd

Even as a Leeds fan I hope he doesn't get banned because like you said it would be farcical. Hull fans trying to blow it up just because their guy got banned the other week.

The Sneyd tackle is one of the worse tackles I've seen this year - IMO it's much more deliberate than the tackle that Chase copped a 7 match ban for.

There was nothing in the Greenwood challenge in comparison to Sneyd's career ending attempt and to think he could cop for 3 games sat in the stands just about sums up the inconsistencies at Red Hall.
