Myler, GOB, Ratch and Bridge all in the squad. Looks like R&B aren't getting paired. Either that or both GOB and Myler miss out.

Probably will see:

Russell
Evans
Atkins
Bridge
JMonas
Ratch
Myler

But would prefer:

Russell
Evans
Atkins
Grix
JMonas
Bridge
Ratch

What ever he decides to go with, he needs to start thinking of the play offs. To close to end of season to be playing around with selections.

I think that is true, and looking at the 19 seems to confirm that TS takes the same view. My guess is that he will use Laithwaite because he wants him match fit and available. Not too sure about GOB.

I believe Cas are resting a few big players for this game!

1 Jordan Tansey
8 Andy Lynch
9 Adam Milner
12 Weller Hauraki
13 Nathan Massey
16 Oliver Holmes
18 Frankie Mariano
19 Scott Wheeldon
20 Jamie Ellis
21 Ashley Gibson
23 Michael Channing
24 James Clare
26 Liam Finn
28 Ben Reynolds
31 Brad Day
32 Lee Jewitt
35 Garreth Carvell
33 Will Maher
30 Jordan Howden

Given that its so close to the playoffs and this game is a must-win really, now is the time to field our strongest team and build some momentum back up.

Cas are resting Shenton, Dixon, Dorn, Webster, Sneyd & Clark. I would expect Lynch and Mariano/Holmes to drop out of that 19.

Agreed, we should treat this game like its Castlefords strongest team!

Smith has tried every possible half back combination we have so far this season and yet nobody can say for sure who will play 6 and 7 this friday. With only four rounds of the regular season left that is totally unacceptable in my book. He should have decided on his preferred pairing by now and stuck with them.

Whenever Myler is fit.....He has played.

Let's hope he doesn't get a nice cheap shot putting him out for the season then eh?

Plus Carney (suspended) That'll be their entire Wembley three-quarter line, fullback and standoff. Only Finn to miss out.

As stupid comments go (and you've made an awful lot), that one really takes the biscuit.

Very poor even for you.

Don't bother telling me to lighten either up I'm not in the mood......Big Roy first name on the team sheet!!!!
