In line for a starting place against Salford. Will be good to get him back on the field. Also seen some footage from the training, Mitch Brown at fullback by the way they lined up.

Well that would be good news on both fronts, sadly missed Paterson as he gives us attacking options ball in hand and the lines he runs

Like to see Brown get a good run at FB, looks as though he will give confidence in defence, runs the ball back well, be interesting to see how he links up in attack

Micky Higham said on the radio tonight that his hamstring has gone again, he's back to square one.

Aye, big,big blow that let's hope he's back at the business end to see us through - time for others to step up, can see Reynolds stepping into the 9 if needed

Don't think there is any other option is there Col ?

Lewis Foster ?

why is hood and pelissire injured ??

They are of course the obvious answers - not mega impressed with either so far this season but presume they will be the 2 in the squad

well Bens not been playing well at 6 so can't understand how people would play him at 9 unless we had no cover at 9

Hood got injured against Wakefield. Don't know how badly but his knee was heavily strapped

Liam Hood is injured so we only have Pellisier at 9, unless we call back Lewis Foster or throw Ben Reynolds in at hooker.

Hood in the squad so let's see what happens, good to see Higson

No Weston, shame as he was starting to step up over recent weeks

Have to say the video naming the squad is extremely annoying, bad enough at the best of time but for players to be listed randomly is frustrating at best

The video announcement is a complete waste of money and effort. Why can't they just produce a graphic like everyone else.

As good as it is to see Higson, I think I'd rather keep Naughton in. Seems to score tries when he plays.

Assume Weston has picked up a knock? Otherwise the decision to select Green ahead of him is baffling.

I'd go;
Brown
Higson
Crooks
Fleming
Dawson
Hampshire
Drinkwater
Hock
Hood
Burr
Paterson
Vea / Stewart
Hansen

Pelissier
Hopkins
Tickle
Vea / Stewart

That's assuming everyone is fit to play, and Paterson probably wont do full 80, so need a second rower on the bench. If fit, Hood could probably do a stint at 13 with Pelissier at 9. Still like to see another back rower brought in before the 8s, wouldn't be too confident with Vea, Stewart and Tickle in the pack.

Totally agree.
Haven't got time for all that when a list of names would be better so I can see all the squad at once- numerical order a bonus really.

Why is it a shame that Weston is not in the Squad? No room for sentiment or fave players, the Coach picks his best 17 players available in his opinion, and goes with his choice, and stands or falls by his choice. The same has been said about McNally , but give me Mitch Brown every day of the week, Jukesy obviously feels the same, Leigh need a win.

It's a shame because he's ten times the prop forward that James Green is.

But yes, it is a matter of choice. Just that some are more baffling than others.
