1. Paul Wellens, 2. Ade Gardner, 3. Michael Shenton, 5. Francis Meli, 6. Lance Hohaia, 7. Jonny Lomax, 8. Josh Perry, 9. James Roby, 10. Louie McCarthy-Scarsbrook, 11. Tony Puletua, 12. Jon Wilkin, 13. Chris Flannery, 14. Anthony Laffranchi, 15. Mark Flanagan, 16. Paul Clough, 17. Gary Wheeler, 18. Shaun Magennis, 19. Andrew Dixon, 21. Tom Makinson.

Glad roby is back!

But no Sia

So Foster has paid the price for last week.
Roby, LMS and Lomax back.
If Lomax is fully fit I can see Wheeler dropping out. Hohaia on the bench?
Would expect Magennis to be left out.

No Gaskell either

I don't think Foster would have played last week but for Gardner having a hand injury.

Well I reckon, back on the bench will go, so with that Lance to start at halfback and with no Gaskell, it will depend on Lomax being fit and Wilkin kicking from 13. Not a revolution but a bigger bench that previously.


Wello
Shenton, Gardner
Meli, Makinson

Wilkin

TP, Clough, Flannery, Dixon

no gaskell? dropped? no reason given on the website, so thats lance at 6 and lomax at 7

no foster either which means we havnt had same two wingers start 2 games in a row yet this season, but i do think its the right call, some of the mistakes foster has made this year have been big and leeds would have peppered him the whole game and odds on he would of come up with another costly one

IMO no fanno or wheels

I missed that. Lomax and Wheeler in the halves, then? Or do we think Hohaia will be moved? (I'd put him on the bench, personally)
I do think Wheelers movement lends itself more to 2nd receiver, and would work well with Lomax (or Lance at 1st).

Leeds squad at near full strength for Sunday

1. Brent Webb, 2. Ben Jones-Bishop, 3. Kallum Watkins, 4. Zak Hardaker, 5. Ryan Hall, 6. Danny McGuire, 7. Rob Burrow, 8. Kylie Leuluai, 10. Jamie Peacock, 12. Carl Ablett, 13. Kevin Sinfield, 14. Lee Smith, 15. Brett Delaney, 17. Ian Kirke, 18. Chris Clarkson, 20. Darrell Griffin, 21. Richard Moore, 24. Liam Hood, 25. Stevie Ward.

With Bentham officiating!

It's like watching the Grand Final all over again!!!!

Can't see Gaskell being dropped for Lance to still stay on the bench. We need a leader directing the play. Lance will probably be that man, with Wilkin kicking from 13. Wheeler to play if Lomax ain't fit.

Just missign Bailey and JJB? It looks like a tough prospect on that veiwing, but still possible if we pull our finger out.

Too right, just hope KC and MR have put the squad through their paces and analysed every single bit of video thay can on Leeds to develop a game plan that can be adaptable and unpredictable as Rob Burrow's movement with ball in hand!

Looking forward to seeing Ward play.

I'll be rooting for you guy's come Sunday. Should we win tonight a victory for you guy's keeps Leeds off our back.

Now that Robes is back, Gaskell can be taken out of the spotlight. He needed that every now and again last season too. I reckon Hohaia and either Lomax or Wheeler in the halves. I would imagine Meli will remain as centre under the new regime. After all it is Leeds we are playing. We need to give them some tries down our left channel!

Didn't Makinson play as a centre before he came to St Helens?
