Looks like ~Ridyard could feature this week - fingers crossed, which will allow Gaskell return to centre.

If O'Brien has a broken foot I can't see him making this weeks game.

Turner's been 3 weeks must still be 2-3 weeks away at best.

i like wood but that would mean leaving gaskell out totally.. he has gone ok for us wherver he has played

obrien says he hopes to be fit for this week.. we shall see

If Ridyard and O'Brien are back it adds way more to our attack
Gaskell is good at centre too

Wait and see who runs on I guess

Ridyard hasn't trained yet this week and is still in rehab, Daniel Smith will play.

Better squad than I was expecting. Worst news is the Ref. Mr Hewer ain't the most competent based on the last two weeks.



The full 19 man squad with sponsors is below:

2. Jermaine McGillvary (Lynda’s Transport)
3. Leroy Cudjoe (Five Star Autocentre)
4. Lee Gaskell (Fork Truck Services)
6. Danny Brough (Keith & Bren Hellawell)
8. Sam Rapira (Bridge Pallet Supplies Ltd)
9. Ryan Hinchcliffe (Kingfisher Fish & Chip Restaurant)
10. Shannon Wakeman (Pennine Pneumatic Services Ltd)
12. Dale Ferguson (Janice Manby)
14. Kruise Leeming (Tony & Sharon Fell)
16. Oliver Roberts (Dual Seal Glass Ltd)
17. Ukuma Ta’ai (Annie, Simeon & Ila)
18. Paul Clough (Villa Maria)
21. Gene Ormsby (Dave & Sue Haigh)
22. Tyler Dickinson (Mark Sullivan, Green Thumb, Huddersfield)
24. Darnell McIntosh (Marshall Woolridge)
30. Alex Mellor (Radio Sangam)
31. Adam O’Brien (PMW Quarries Ltd)
33. Martyn Ridyard (Holly Burdsey)
35. Jordan Rankin (Alex Burdsey)

The Giants will face Widnes in their home kit.

Referee: Gareth Hewer

Widnes 19 man squad:

3. Chris Bridge, 10. Jack Buchanan, 18. Greg Burke, 13. Hep Cahill, 23. Jay Chapelhow, 15. Gil Dudson, 7. Tom Gilmore, 33. Aaron Heremaia, 11. Chris Houston, 28. Ryan Ince, 31. Jordan Johnstone, 20. Manase Manuokafoa, 17. Stefan Marsh, 6. Joe Mellor, 4. Charly Runciman, 2. Corey Thompson, 29. Brad Walker, 9. Lloyd White, 12. Matt Whitley

looks like the 17 i predicted earlier could be the team! decent enough to get the win if the forwards do their work in ikahihifos absence

hewer the ref, what a poor game he had the other week for us, worst ive seen in a long time, hope he polices the offside better this time.

He was poor in the Catalan game too.

Nervous about this one - win and we have one foot in the top 8, lose and it's all very nervous
The squad is good enough go do the job though

As for the ref, well so long as we play like we want to win and with enthusiasm he won't matter

Think id go

Jerry
Leroy
Gaskell
McIntosh/Rankin

Ridyard

Ferguson
Mellor
Hinchliffe

Clough
Roberts

Will Ormsby and Smith ever be picked again?
