| While accepting that you have some injuries according to some of your recent posts, you are not the only ones. For the past few games with the odd exception, we(HKR) have had both first choice centres, first choice winger, hooker, full back, both second rowers and props missing.
Against Fev we lost two more to medium/long term injuries, and against Toulouse we played a lot of kids because we had to.
Hopefully we will have some first choices back and give you a game, but this could go either way and will at least give us a pointer to where we stand for later on.
Re.Childs, we have suffered big time at his hands, same as Hicks and Thaler, so we do not expect any favours from him.
Be interesting to see what happens, but this game is not our priority.

Ditto, we would concede if we could if just to rest up and patch up a few more bodies for St.Helens next week.

I don't think this game is Leigh's either? As an indicator for you, a win could prove your undoing just has it did to Leigh 2015! We made the headlines beating Salford at home and winning at Wakefield too! however, by the quarter final at Warrington it was beginning to tell on us! When the middle 8s came around we were 'spent' injuries to key players saw both Salford and Wakefield gain retribution for their earlier 'embarrassing' defeats. You may recall your victory at the LSV? we were winning comfortably at HT only to eventually implode and, lose!
We will put a team out and I'm sure we will be looking to win

Naming a 19 man squad on paper is one thing, actually playing on one leg, one knee, one hamstring etc is another.

| The last thing that Leigh need in our present parlous state injury-wise is a Pyrrhic victory that leaves us even more vulnerable in SL. Ninth or tenth is not a disaster given the seeding for the M8s.
Sorry, Atomic, Bongser is resigned to that season end but will always hope for more
Worst case scenario, a loss that incurs more injuries. Give 'em the pill and, when the RL ask why, say on the Beeb and Sky that they gave us no choice with their disciplinaries.

What a load of old cacka. In 2015 you had a Rowley team who chucked the ball about trying to play Harlem Globetrotter style Rugby League. Defence and basic game management was a complete anathema to that smug prat of a coach at the time. Thankfully you learnt your lesson last year and toned it down when necessary and brought in experienced players with more skill and some on field leadership quality. Right ingredients, perfect recipe. Be flattered as we are aiming to emulate your 2016 mix to some degree this year.

To reproduce Leigh's 2016 season would require an early CC exit. Given your defeat at Toulouse would say thats not the case.If you think laying a marker down in the CC stands you in good stead for the 8's,you need to think again.

Ah, but it wouldn't do a lot for our current fragile confidence, though.

It's not a question of laying down a marker, more like our only opportunity to test our current squad against super league opposition, and see what needs to be done in preparation for the 8s.

| Adam Higson will not be fit to play and we will also have a full back on Sunday , who has never played full back for Leigh before. Interesting.
