Gaskell and Emmitt to miss out for mine. Clough will be spelled then used as 4th prop imo.

Not a chance Emmitt will miss out.

Jake would maybe have something to prove after leaving the youth setup at Wire a few years ago

I'd go with...

1. Mathers
2. Riley
3. King
4. Atkins
5. Hicks
6. Briers
7. Myler
8. Morley
9. Monaghan
10. Carvell
11. Louis
12. Westwood
13. Grix

Subs:

Clarke
Solomona
Harrison
Wood

Mitchell and Vinnie to miss out. Very good bench.

Thats what i'd go with. Good enough, IMO.

yup, one of dixon/ashurst out and emmit in.
Its not actually to bad a squad, with our lack of centres i was a bit worried, but flannery has been great there this year

Gidley, Soliola, Eastmond, Lomax, Wheeler, Fozzard and Dean out. The last 2 wouldn't be in our 17 to be fair but that's a hell of a lot of class missing from our backs. Not missing any forwards though unless I've missed someone so hopefully we can mix it up front with them.

we used to have a young samoan lad, Maurie something or other....

hope mathers is fit to play. he's a disaster waiting to happen in a big game!

Sorry, just thought of him.

I don't agree, we are going to have big problems in the centres this week IMO.

Flannery has done really well at centre but i worry about him in defence, anything straight at him and he will tackle them all day but it's reading the game outwide in defence he has problems with, briers will be rubbing his hands with flannery and meli in the centre.

Meli is same, i think he will tackle atkins or king all day if it's one on one situation but it's when the wolves move the ball wide with dummy runners and briers missing players out with long balls.

I think fozz would have been good to have in this game as it's going to be a real battle in the middle against wood, mozza, carvell and harrison.

Saints will have to play at there highest level possible this week to win.

Kyle Eastmond is making good progress from an ankle injury, as is Gary Wheeler from his hamstring strain, but the game comes too soon for them to return.

Interesting

Wheeler is a waste of space, never plays and when he does get back he only lasts 3 games them is out for next 6 weeks.
