I would have thought he'd be on the bench against Rovers to get some game time before next week. Don't like first game back for him is away at Leigh. It's all or nothing next week though.

Given that Lowesy admits we've, "lost confidence", bringing him back for next Saturday could be the tonic we need?

It's got to be the strongest 17 next week. No Walker, no Mendieka, probably one or two more. Win next week and Leigh are out

We live in hope!

Heard it on the terraces that he's going end season that's why lowes won't play him

If you did, still surely you aren't stupid enough to believe such utter bullcrap, though?

I mean, either he's still got bruised kidneys from breaking the post with his ribs, or Lowes is not only lying but also vindictively spiking his team's chances of going up, out of some petty fit of pique? And that Green is happy to tolerate this even though he would (obviously) know that the docs had passed Gaskell fully fit to play/

Which do you consider to be a realistic possibility?

Whether the rumours are true or not he just saying what he has heard

Seems funny that club say he's fit but don't play him he's one of the better players should be looking for every point to get back up to super league so why not play him 1) try get the 2 points 2) match fitness even if only play him of the bench

Has the club said he is fit?

They haven't said he's fit

Hope that helps

Not publically maybe but when u got people in the know

Lee has just won the award for Champ player of the year. Fully deserved as well!

He's been brilliant this season and fully deserves it. Well done Lee

Brilliant news, and thoroughly deserved. The class of the comp.

A little bit surprised the best club ever didn't win anything

Obligatory one liner that he is hoping to be fit for Sunday, come Weds when they say he might not make it setting up for squad announcement on Friday that he hasn't made it!
