SAINTS have announced their 19-man squad for Monday's First Utility Super League Round nine clash with Hull FC.

Ricky Bailey and Olly Davies have been called up into the '19' alongside Lewis Charnock.

Paul Wellens (who is pictured here the Steve Prescott Cup) and Joe Greenwood miss out with injuries sustained in the Good Friday derby.

Saints 17 will be chosen from:

2. Tommy Makinson, 3. Jordan Turner, 4. Josh Jones, 5. Adam Swift, 8. Mose Masoe, 9. James Roby, 10. Kyle Amor, 13. Louie McCarthy-Scarsbrook, 14. Alex Walmsley, 15. Mark Flanagan, 16. Lance Hohaia, 18. Luke Thompson, 19. Greg Richards, 22. Matty Dawson, 25. Andre Savelio, 26. Lewis Charnock, 28. Jack Ashworth, 29. Olly Davies, 33. Ricky Bailey.

15. Mark Flanagan
18. Luke Thompson

13. LMS
14. Alex Walmsley
19. Greg Richards
25. Andre Savelio

Go on the young'uns. Whilst we're at it I would be tempted to give Jack Ashworth a go over Dawson but that might be a bit overkill.

I'd swap Bailey and Makinson round. I know Bailey is a natural full back but I'd rather see him play on the wing. Makinson has experience at full back so i'd start him at 1. Bailey would then play on the wing, as it's a bit unusual for someone to make their debut at full back, especially at such a young age, he's only in his 2nd year at u19 level.

I'm sure Turner and Hohaia will be at 6 and 7 too. I think Cunningham has said this somewhere. This will either mean a debut for Ashworth or Jones to centre and a slight reshuffle in the pack.

So whats up with Wilkin then? I must have missed it?

... What's the worst that could happen?

Well on the plus side, we'll have to see at least two of those four young lads play. Shame this one isn't on TV, but I'm looking forward to seeing the reports from people who are there about how the newbies go.

I know its through necessity, but its good to see some more young lads get a run out

Percy was training while the team did the captains run which is good news.

Percival was in Widnes nandos after the match on Friday and he didn't appear to have any issues with the leg.

Eating chicken on good friday !!!!!!

The wings however, proved to be too much for him
