Obvious move is Fages replaces Roby and Turner goes to centre with Burns at 6 but there lies the problem, where's Burns what's up?

Well, Burns hasn't made the squad and Charnock isn't there, so one can only assume he'll go Fages at Hooker and stick with Turner at 5/8. That would surely mean Wellington playing centre.

The other option would be to put Turner back to centre and play Wilkin at #6; but shouldn't we be trying to nurture a consistent halfback partnership.

Turner to centre in place of Peyroux.

Fages to stand off in place of Turner.

Knowles to hooker in place of Roby

Heard that's what were going with.

I'd go with this, we should be wanting a consistent half back partnership. Keep the Walsh/Turner combo.

No! Jones and Flanagan is more than enough

Hope we don't play both Knowles and Wellington in the 13, its obvious Fages needs to play on a pitch he's very familiar with and I would have him replacement for Roby. If Wellington gets a shot and he finds the jump to this level too much then we can go Wilkin to hooker Fages to stand off and Turner to centre, none of these strangers to these adjusted positions.
Don't know what other position Burns can play as per KC's statement, centre or hooker perhaps but we have cover in these positions.
Hope its another wet boggy game, our forwards can slog it out for another win.

Sau isn't playing.

Turner to centre seems the sane option. Surprised Dawson didn't make the line up, is he injured

Never thought I'd say this but it's a shame JT has to move back to the centre as I thought he did great at stand off. He's a runner and this allows Walsh to play his usual game.

I think Walsh likes to be the main man, the organiser, the ball player and that means he suits having a running stand off and Turner provides this.

I'm never confident going into a game but having seen that Salford squad surely we must come away with 2 points. I like Lui but that Salford pack is shocking imo

I'm not convinced he will move Turner. Wouldn't surprise me to see Wellington come in.

Two of them was in the best pack ever to play super league last year
