| I think I'd go for the following based on what saw yesterday. Maybe lean more towards Ainscough and Sibbit for the two split roles
Kearney
Ah Van
Platt
Walker
Ainscough/Raynor
Briggs
Herbert
Lynch
L'Estrange
Hargreaves
Elima
Whitehead
Langley
Scruton
Kopzcak/Sibbit
Diskin
Royston
Really hope I can find a bar that's showing it!!

| Seeing Sibbit's size yesterday, it did occur to me that we might actually use him as a 4th prop instead of Koppy. Especially if Craig's form isn't going well. Difficult to see that Sibbit used to be a centre, as he's a BIG bloke!

Must admit his size really surprised me!
I'd go with your 17 too, although in an ideal world would have Ah Van in the centres. I think Sibbit played himself into the 17 in place of Ainscough. But its horses for courses, and Potter has - to an extent - the luxury of being able to tailor his 17 match-by-match relative to the attributes of the opposition.

I can't get over that this is the same player we saw at Salford last year.
I've always been a Sibbit fan, from his early days at Warrington and the Challenge Cup semi-final games we had in 2000/2001.

That's my thinking as well. His form in Pre season has been better than Koppys IMO so that's why I'd lean towards him. Royston in for his versatility. Scrutes as impact prop and then if Disko comes on and did what he did yesterday I would be very happy

I'm pretty sure that they'll be a sports type of bar that has sky sports.
The kick-off will be at 9am over in the US and you might be struggling to find one open at that time.

I've been impressed by Diskin's reading of the game, his short bursts up the middle from dummy half catching the opposition markers offside/not square could see us win a whole host of penalties this season if we look at the two he won at Dewsbury and the two he won yesterday.

Spoke to my mate at work about that this morning the way he uses off side markers as a shield is a great tactic.
Most people though Potter would go the other way and use Disko from the start but it worked really well yesterday ad played them both at one stage which gives us an extra option

As Adey has mentioned, I think it might depend on the opposition as to who starts and who comes off the bench. Different teams, different strengths/weaknesses.

Which is something we never really had the option of using during the McNamara years.
