I'd have Coops and Higham out, but unfortunately I think that too many people know about this for it to be made up. Unless its a TS ploy, I think its true.

My side:
1. Richie Mathers
2. Chris Riley
3. Matt King
23. Ryan Atkins
5. Chris Hicks
6. Lee Briers
7. Richie Myler
8. Adrian Morley (C)
9. Michael Monaghan
10. Garreth Carvell
11. Louis Anderson
12. Ben Westwood
13. Ben Harrison

15. Jon Clarke
16. Paul Wood
26. David Solomona
27. Vinnie Anderson

Hopefully Richie's smile isn't just him putting on a brave face.

Can't argue too much with that team.

maybe mickey for vinnie, but vinnie has def improved recently

As you both say his time will come - ask Danny McGuire - he was dropped for the 2003 Challenge Cup final after scoring the leveling (at 80mins) and winning (in extra time) tries in the semi. He hit back in 2004 by scoring 38 tries including one particularly significant one at Old Trafford!

Anyone else think this could be mind games from Smith - as a Leeds fan I'm suspicious. (I hope it is true because I think Monaghan is your most effective 9)

dont care...hugely over rated selfish player. A great poacher and back up player but not someone who creates a great deal for anyone else. similar in some ways to mcguire but not as good overall

I agree he may not make the starting 13 but I can't see Myler not making the 17.. As we're rightly saying, right place, right time in support - with pace and has scored a good number of tries.

People are saying this is a TS ploy and mind-games prior to the game but wouldn't that put even more pressure on Richie if/when he gets on the field! That's not TS style as he'd understand the pressure.

I hope for Richie's sake and Warrington the lad gets on the field at some point. I don't this he deserves to be dropped entirely and is a great addition to the team!

COME ON WIRE!!!

10 assists this season in 19 games.

Next.

How many tries?

If a Challenge cup final against the current SL Champions isn't the type of game we should be playing our 200k signing in then I've officially seen it all! It is absolutely ridiculous to contemplate leaving Myler out the side.

Burrow and McGuire are of the same mould but you can guarentee they will play, so what exactly is the problem? Although I am aware this is all speculation.

Myler's main attributes are exactly the kind of things we need to beat Leeds tomorrow in my opinion, especially when they're a bit understrength in the forwards.

20 in 22 games i think, according to the guardian

Can someone in the know please clarify that Myler is definately not going to be in the 17.
Thanks

Sean, BBC1 tommorrow is your answer, no one knows for definate, all just hear say.

stop i internet i want to get off...
