first game up then in the super 8's , though for us i think we have our own mini league to finish 5th with wildcats, hull fc and catalan.

saints losing in the cup not good for us as they will be wanting to hit back

hope we can carry on out good form... matagi to play??? ikahihifo to make a return??

those two would certainly bolster the pack!

We need to come out firing in this game and really put it on them.

Id go:

1. Rankin
2. Jerry
3. Cudjoe
4. Turner
5. McIntosh
6. Gaskell
7. Brough
8. Taai
9. O Brien
10. Clough
11. Murphy
12. Mellor
13. Hinchliffe

14. Matagi
15. Seb/English (Depending on if Seb is fit)
16. Roberts
17. Ferguson/Leeming/Bruno depending on who/who isnt fit.

Taai looked like he’d busted his knee again against wakey. Playing on against doctors orders just so we could field 13 against 13 won’t have helped!!!

lawrence out for two to three weeks but thats a bonus as it looked liked a season ending injury, pleased for him.

ikahihifo out for the season, gone for ankle op... matagi straight replacement.

murphy out too for this one.

st helens player didnt even get a ban for the high tackle in semi final, joke

would imagine ferguson will slot into the second row to cover murphy loss

with smith coming back in at prop or loose

Surely leeming should be back in now with hinchy back to 13.
Murphy Seb and Bruno out so Clough, taai, matty and Matagi at prop, Mellor, Fergi second row, Oli on bench.

yeah its looking like well be lining up like

Rankin
Jerry
Leroy
Turner
Mcintosh
Gaskell
Brough
Taai
O Brien
Clough
Ferguson
Mellor
Hinchy

Matagi
Roberts
English
Smith/Leeming

leeming out again

There’s a rumour going around he’s in some sort of bother... I really hope not.... but Roche for Leeming and Hinchy at back up hooker doesn’t make sense...

Something seems to have made a bit of sense fartown, Woolford is certainly making a massive difference , Thats an excellent win away from home, Not long ago i was expecting to be in the middle 8s. Onward and upwards.

Compare where we are now to where we was the last time we went to Saints, chalk and cheese

well the 16 point lead we got into was just enough!! looked shaky in the second half when saints were putting the pressure on (and the ref!)

like woolford says it was pure determination to get that win lastnight and will to win, the defence we have now is great and that comes with working hard for each other... cudjoe in particular stood up when needed on that score.

taai ran hard early did some damage, so did matagi... double of faiumu!! couple of errors from him but understandable, can tell hes going to be a good signing for us.

shame warrington won but just happy to get the win, 4 times now seen us win at that saints ground (3 sl games and 1 pre season)

what a turnaround from the last game we played there earlier in the season

thompson got a match ban for throwing the ball at the touch judge ref didnt mean for it to happen but it did
