I'd go with:

1 - Evalds
2 - BJB
3 - Walton
4 - Sa'u
5 - Johnson
6 - Chase
7 - Fages
8 - Taylor
9 - Hood
10 - D.Griffin
11 - Hansen
12 - Hauraki
13 - Paterson
----------------------
14 - Wood
15 - Morley
16 - Forster
17 - J.Walne

That isn't a bad team on paper. It's as close to full strength as what we've had for weeks.

Ignore that now.

I'd start with Tomkins at 9, Hood on the bench, Wood misses out.

I'd agree with that, although I would like to see Walton in there in place of Walne.

I'd probably pick MCB over Walton, not been impressed with him over the past few weeks.

I thought he was our best player against Warrington.

Saints likely lineup:

McDonnell
Makinson Percival Turner Swift
Burns Wilkin
Amor Roby Walmsley
LMS Flanagan
Jones

Masoe Richards Thompson Savelio

It's obviously a lot tougher than this, but pressure Wilkin and they've got nowhere to go. Still not convinced by Travis Burns at all in a Saints shirt and in Walsh' absence it appears the task of directing the team around the field has fell onto Wilkin's shoulders.

That pack looks formidable though.

Not bad when it's missing it's two best performers this year (Greenwood and Vea) and not a bad lineup considering we're missing 4 of our starting 13 (Lomax, Walsh, Greenwood, Vea).

I think our win over Warrington could well play in your favour. It puts us in a position of some strength in the table and instead of needing to win to stay ahead of Wire, we're now 4 clear. I like the look of your backs and it could be a far more interesting game than the one at your ground.

Add Vea and Greenwood, shift LMS to 13 and there is no better in Super League. If Walsh can manage a run of games between no and the end of the season I cant see anyone stopping Saints.

We need to pressure Wilkin to stop him putting the bombs up. We never seem to deal with them.
