Injuries or rested?

Wello?

No Lance

Did Wheeler make the 19??????

No, despite being fit and available.

Maybe Wilkins punishment for getting banned is having to play in the halves again?

Reliability is a real issue here . Wheels needs to play 6 on the bounce for Bradford or dual reg before we consider him again I am bemused why posters appear indignant that he is not included. He made his debut in 08 and has barely played 50 games. If your car was that reliable you would have sold it long ago . He doesn't deserve to walk back into team without proving fitness over a sustained period in games. Not disputing his ability.

I'd imagine he will play over Easter. Would be silly to get someone injured or just spent before the Leeds game.

What I don't get is dropping Lance or having an injured Lance and not picking Wheeler. We only have 2 people who can play a six role. One is injury prone the other lacks consistent ability.

If Lance is out or a doubt , then surely Wheeler is the obvious choice.

I really hope that this decision is down to Hohaia being injured and not a sign that Brown is going to start his stupid tinkering games again. We cannot afford to start messing around with our halfbacks. That is an area in which we need consistency.

Always enjoyed a bit o tinkering. You little tinker.

Over the next 2 weeks he'll get a game no doubt. 4 games in just over two weeks means we'll have to rotate players

He also needs to fix his defence which is why he struggles to get a start. He has real attacking threat but too often a turn style in defence

The rest roby comment was from one person. I think he's on is own with that thought. As he is with the wilkin comment.

I think the only thing saints lack is a good replacement hooker for Roby. I think that is very important in the next year or so as far as signings go.

Carneys announced a 5yr extension today. So that idea goes out of the window



Should be a belting game and a good advert for the league, whatever the score.

Will you not put Lomax in the halves and start Wellens at fullback??

You don't know what you've started now. This could get messy..........

Take a sneaky peak at the Leeds game.

I'm awaiting dad's army's repsonce. He posts anything wello related.

Had to be announced today didn't it

I was right though, they were in contract negotiations! Great signing for you guys, 5 years is a long time though!

Always is a good game between cas and saints, both like playing rugby

Another good test for both sides this and it could really be a big boost for Saints coming up to the Easter period if they could get a win. They are on a bit of a crest of a wave at the minute and are the team we all want to beat, but wanting is one thing, and getting is another!

1. Jonny Lomax
2. Tommy Makinson

Any news on if Lance is injured or rested? Same for Flash?

Good team that imo

Lance is injured, picked up a knock in training. Flash not selected as far as I'm aware.

It's a big team that's for certain.

Wilkin at 6 will be interesting to say the least.
