I don't like it but, Chilly is getting a lot of game time meaning we could go with two props plus Dwyer and Ratchford on the bench. I wouldn't want TS to mess with a winning side (especially against one of the better sides in SL), so Clarke (if fit of course) into the 17 for Dodds.

if we're making changes, ratch drops out for an extra forward

We are absolutely mullered for injuries . Wire by 30.

This...
TS will want to keep a settled side as much as poss.. However the Easter weekend is almost upon us and I think he may make a few changes then.

I don't care about injuries, Daryl Powell always gives the impression that he could get Castleford Panthers Under 13's organised enough to give a SL team a run for their money*.

[size* Just to point out that I don't REALLY think that an Under 13's team could compete against a SL tem (except maybe for Wakefield) no matter who coaches them![/size

I don't have much hope. We are ravaged by injuries to key players in key positions. Likely to be without Dorn, Roberts, Millington, Holmes, Moors and of course Shenton. Monaghan also seems to be playing injured, as does McMeekan.
If you can stop the combination of Dorn and Solomona on our left edge you will win by 30. If you can't stop Gale and Solomona, Denny will probably end up with a couple of tries and you'll win by 20.

Yeah you're certainly suffering with injuries. We've been lucky with only Dodds, Wheeler, Bailey, Laithwaite, Harrison, Clark, Westwood and Toby King injured at the moment.

And Ben Evans,

why does everyone forget about Ben Evans when they refer to our injured players.....

I see your point, but numbers don't tell the whole story.
Dorn is our best full back.
Shenton is our best centre.
Roberts is our best stand-off (by miles if the performance of Hampshire is anything to go by).
Millington is our best prop.
Holmes and Moors are our best back-rowers.

Apart from Gale and Solomona, I'd consider these to be our best players. If you had Hill, Gidley, Sandow out we might stand a chance!

Technically he's not injured any more ?

also Monaghan isnt injured... thats just how fast he is these days im afraid.

Hopefully from reading these posts wire will treat Cas with the same contempt we did Salford and knock em quickly back down to earth.

I think you need to sort your reading glasses out 'dazzler'!!

There's not much contempt shown for Castleford on here as far as I can make out? Most of the thread is about our team selection, not how we are going to do this and that to your team. The only one's talking Cas' down are your own supporters giving yourselves an injury excuse should we win.

Salford really knocked us back down to earth didn't they? I was absolutely gutted leaving the ground at full time.
