Wellens
Pryce
Flannery
Moore
Clough
Wheeler
Lomax
Gaskell
Makinson

Wellens would be full back.
Pryce would be stand off.
Lomax would be scrum half.
Flannery would be second row.
Moore would be interchange.
Clough would be interchange.
Wheeler would be left centre or most probably interchange back.
Gaskell probs 18th/19th man.
Makinson still learning his trade but promising intro to first grade.

So out of the 9 injured, 7 would be in our strongest seventeen.

Still an excellent starting lineup, bench could be were you struggle though.

Thats a good starting line-up but again like Good Friday when Puletua and Jammer are spelled we will be leaking points at a alarming rate. I hope Royce Simmons has come up with a plan on how to spell Jammer and Puletua one at a time.

Isn't it easy?

Just start with one, have the other on the bench and spell them with each other.

Sure, you miss the full A Team impact, but you also avoid the outmuscled spell which sees us leaking the points you refer to.

But would it? Would just one of them be as effective as both of them? Personally, I don't think they would.

Hitting Sam is like a 241. He starts limping round with his had on his hip while his sister starts getting all moody which usually results in a few penalties. Sod Cunningham and Sculthorpe we need Jason Hooper back

OK here is my guess at the team

Armstrong
Gardner, Shenton, Meli, Foster
Wilkin, Eastmond
Perry, Roby, Graham
Soliola,Ashurst, Puletua

Magennis, Elemes, Dixon, Ashe

I would rather go for Hale than Dixon due to Dixons defense but I think Royce will disagree with me. If Perry is still out then both will play. If Eastmond still has a sniffle then we are struggling.

Should be enough to give Hull a game. Hopefully our depth will not get tested much more.

I'd imagine they'd be about half as effective. Or half as ineffective. Or something.

Personally I would start them both and spell them apart. We all know what happenend at Wigan when they where on the Interchange Bench at the same time. That has to be avoided where ever possible in the future.

Looking at the stats Dixons defence is on a par with most of the players in his position;

App Missed Tackles

Wilkin 8 15
Puletua 12 12
Clough 6 2
Soliola 9 22
Flannery 9 11
Moore 10 21
Ashurst 5 2
Magennis, 8 11
Dixon 4 6

Come on, were not all that bad.

At least Radders had TMFMISL hiding behind the rest of his teammates last backend.

Hope you guys have a safe journey to the K.C and lets hope for a cracking game with no more injuries. Hull vs Saints is always a fixture I look forward too.

Perry will be the answer to that. Also at wigan we were down by 2 subs at half time, so that messed up spelling the forwards better.
