Leythers here we come !!! 8 coaches with the Barmy Army on should make it a great night

I would expect Southernwood to be 18th man for this tbh.

I wouldn't be at all surprised to see Platt back in for Crookes, Kearney to scrum half, and Reardon either to fullback or Reardon to wing and Halley to fullback. Otherwise unchanged.

(Not what I'd pick, just what I expect from that squad)

You should worry about your own team...tough one for you boys the way you've been playing!

Based on what? Serious question.

There is a huge gulf between SL and the championship. Our current form is WDWWWWL, 1 loss in the last 7 isn't shabby at all.

I'm not sure how we will line up on friday.

Reardon/Halley
Sheriffe
Sykes/Platt
Nero/Crookes
Halley/Crookes
Kearney/Sykes/Southernwood
Kearney/Southernwood
Scruton
Godwin
Kopzcak/Lynch
Whitehead
Nero/Donaldson/Worrincy
Menzies/Donaldson

L'Estrange
Kopzcak/Lynch
Worrincy/Donaldson
Hall


Delete as applicable , there are a fair few combinations that could be used and i'm sure Macca will choose which he feels is strongest or will work best at this moment in time.

Would expect so...will be thoroughly embarrassing for you if you have not.

By the time we've thrashed you on the 23rd we'll be six points clear of you

What better opportunity to have southernwood on the bench and give him a limited run out if and when its felt appropriate.
Look forward to seeing the lad, he certainly comes with with a great rep in his age group.

tell that to cas!

Cas are struggling out of the play-offs and have had a fair few injuries.

I'm not going to be drawn in to making any stupid statements though, I am well aware that if we don't turn up Leigh do have enough about them to get the result.

Knockout rugby though, anything can happen.


I quite fancy Blackpool to go through as it happens

well not for me I just go to the games and cheer em on! But I'm sure the lads are awear it's now or never if we are gonna finish 4th or above.

There's an enormous gap - especially as our 4 'dual contract' players will not be playing. (Millward reckons they have a better chance of playing at Wembley with Warrington/Saints! )

Talking of current form, our last 12 (Albeit in the Championship) are WDWWWWWWWWWW.

Here's looking forward to a good game - if we get within 20 of you, I'll consider we've done well.
