Player Spotlight

I'd go with



Kearney

Ainscough

Platt

Walker

Ah Van

Briggs

Herbert

Hargreaves

Diskin

Lynch

Elima

Whitehead

Langley



Heath, Scruton, Kopzcak and Olbison

Well done Mr.potter! stuck to your words, by saynig youve got to work to stay in the team, sykes worked hard, very hard last week and stayed in the team, walker back is good because he is a huge size and great tackling skills, really excited now!! COYB

Where has Mr Spotlight signed from Dennis?

I'll go with this as the 17:



FB: 6 Kearney

LW: 18 Ainscough

LC: 1 Platt

RC: 4 Walker

RW: 5 Ah Van

SO: 32 Briggs

SH: 7 Herbert

P: 15 Hargreaves

H: 14 Diskin

P: 10 Lynch

SR: 11 Elima

SR: 12 Whitehead

LF: 13 Langley



SUB: 9 L'Estrange

SUB: 8 Scruton

SUB: 16 Kopczak

SUB: 25 Royston

I'd go with that but start with Royston at centre and Walker on the bench.

You've been waiting for that one

Happy with that team or your variation tbh - we get different skills and coverage from both players

I'd go with Mick's starting 17 above, although its tough on Olbison and Sykes



Isn't it refreshing that we've got 'selection headaches' ?

scott moore's lost the appeal against his ban.



this raises an interesting point. He was named in saints 19 man squad for the game on gamble ban would be overturned. Will saints now be allowed to name someone else in the 19 man squad?



AFAIK the only valid qualifying reason for replacing someone in 19 man squad is injury .



(although leeds totally ignored this rule when they re-signed lee smith for last years easter fixture and though the question was raised by league express as to his validity RFL never clarified the rule).

As far as I'm concerned, he shouldn't be. They took the risk, it backfired. Tough really.

You can only play 17 so I imagine the 18th man was put there to cover the chance that Moore did not make it.

1. Paul Wellens,

2. Ade Gardner,

3. Michael Shenton,

5. Francis Meli,

22. Jamie Foster,

25. Lee Gaskell.

20. Jonny Lomax,

8. Josh Perry,

9. James Roby,

10. James Graham,

4. Sia Soliola,

13. Chris Flannery,

12. Jon Wilkin,



11. Tony Puletua,

15. Louie McCarthy-Scarsbrook,

17. Gary Wheeler,

18. Matty Ashurst,





That's actually a better squad on paper than we had last week. 2 first grade props and a young 2nd rower and a utility back who can play every position on the pitch bar prop.

Yeah good call

I wouldn't have a problem if Whitehead was rested, but i would give him a few more games before we do.



Gledhill's team looks pretty strong, but I would be disappointed to see Olbi dropped when he's playing very well.

Keep Olbison in, hes been playing well

Tbf it's going to be unfair on whoever misses out from 19 if you base it on form. Got to go for strongest combination though

Olbison has got to play before Sykes or Royston. The lad is playing really well and is the future of our team.



Tackles better than them anyway!

Well i have to say when we play saints im never confident but if we play to what i know we can we could collect the 2. I just rnt very confident about doing it..... ill be still there though and hopefully we will turn up! whats everyone elses thoughts

We'll be givin 'em a Basil Fawlty-stylee good thrashing.

I would assume everyone else's thoughts are in the 6 page thread [url=http://viewtopic.php?f=19&t=487303here[/url

I could be wrong but I'm sure when we played Wire in the play-offs last year, Matty Smith wasn't names in the 19 man squad, but was still able to play

If someone gets injured during training you can call another player up, cant just swap it and change kit once uve named 19..you can however pick anyone from that 19 up until kick off...should be an hr before or when ref gets teamsheet..but seen a player pull up in warm up then been pulled out.

if someone has a genuine medical reason for being withdrawrn from 19 man squad thats fine. Its when teams abuse it, like leeds putting smith and not even making pretense that player they withdrew was injured, that it annoys me. In this case saints took a gamble that moore would be cleared. He wasnt and they shouldnt be allowed to replace him in 19 man squad. Not saying their going to try to, just going by precedent leeds set last year.



edit: seems like sts are allowed to ignore 19 man squad naming system same as leeds as moore has now been replaced in their squad for tomorrow. Whats the point of naming a 19 man squad if you can chop and change it at will?
