Well im expecting the same 19 as last week.no idea after that.

Westwood will only do about 60mins again, and Harrison about 50 so you need someone on the bench who can play both SR and lock as Carvs will take the other bench prop spot if fit alongside Woody. Unfortunately Cooper isn't very solid on the fringes IMO and struggles defensively reading the play although he has been exceptional from 13 in the middle recently. So therefore it's between Grix and McCarthy for me, and with Tyke missing out at Saints, I'd lean towards Grixy completing the 17.

Unfortunate, but Coops to miss out and I'd revert Harrison back to 13, with Grix & Carvs to the bench in an otherwise unchanged side from Saints.

With the possible exception of Westwood, I can't think of a player whose money would be worse spent than Carvell on a sex change. Atkins, now he could make a good looking woman.

something you want to tell us ian?

"Queer eye for the straight guy" type moment?

Well, this is a special week...

Like I said, don't shoot the messenger. I work for the council and my colleague was at a meeting at said fitness centre, so it wasn't a "I saw Carvell limping with Lord Lucan" thread.

Still like you say, I don't publically acknowledge no-nothings so I'll ignore your future posts.

Classic retort; the old 'I know you are' argument. Are you actually a 6 year old? don't worry, you'll get better.

Also, you can't use the 'don't shoot the messenger' line when you are making a flimsy rumour thread, sorry.

Finally, I wasn't actually 'shooting you' by the way. Just poking fun at a thoroughly pointless thread. You keep posting these 'rumours' and you best get used to it. It's grand final week... and we're in it. Relax!

Well everything is rumour until they run out @ 6PM isn't it, it's just this particular one has some substance to it - given the speculation about whether Cooper should be in or out, just thought I'd mention it.

Talking of rumour, you might like to know evolution isn't one - it's happened so stop banging the rocks together and join the party.

Relax!

You are genuinely annoyed at me, aren't you? You must be new to the internet. As much as I like the novelty of you trying to insult me, I strongly suspect you are either a troll or a school kid. Most importantly, I don't really care. When you get a good rep, maybe a few thousand posts, provide an insight into something rugby league, then I will. But, for the tim being, just be glad that Ian saved your thread with one of the funniest comedy posts I've read on here in a while.

I assume you're going Old Trafford in two days. Have fun. I know I will. This is the most important week I can remember for the club. We're favorites to do the double

If you want to call a truce, I'm open to it; I'd leave you with the advice not to post too many rumours. Or you can fire another childish insult this way. I personally think a 'you're gay' would be a good follow up for you.

FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT

lol fair enough truce it is. I'm neither a troll nor 6, alas nearer 46, and having been a wires fan since 78 and a season ticket holder for 20 years I think I can hold my own in any rugby debate but I'll bow to your superior RLFANS popularity.

I guess we're agreed on one thing - doesn't matter if Carvell runs out with "Morrisseyisawire was right" written on his ar*e, the only thing that matters is Moz lifting the trophy at full-time.

I couldn't agree more. The only thing I could possibly care about this week is the 80 mins that Wire will be playing rugby and, boy, am I nervous as hell about it.

Finally...Morrissey and JD kiss and make up and live happily ever after xxx

i think its funny watching jd pick on someone new, since he's figuratively moved up a rung now on here.
