One of the most bewildering decisions we have ever made! To think that he should/could have been helping us out of the bottom four, rather than one of our main rivals, is incredible - we haven't got a half back / play maker/kicker, half as good as him! (as you will see for yourselves on Friday)

if we win our next two then might give top 4 a thought, till then our job could be done thursday night when wigan beat wire!

no mamo or murphy for the run, a number or players carrying injuries too.. ferguson and mellor.. get them in for surgery early doors.

ridyard confirmed as cant play for giants, turner not ready could be upto another 3 weeks off...poss earlier depending on if we are in a position to go for the top 4.

ikahihfo and ferguson back... mellor question mark on his injury still.

team id go for

rankin
mcintosh
wood
cudjoe
mcgillvary

brough
gaskell
leeming

ikahihifo
wakeman
ferguson
hinchcliffe
roberts


bench-
obrien
rapira
clough
dickinson

No taai?

It's an informal kind of do !

ha

taai in for roberts

roberts to the bench... dickinson misses out!

ikahihifo and wood in the 19 named

ferguson and mellor also in... might depend on how the result goes tomorrow in wigan as to whether they play as both carrying injuries.

Think id go:

Rankin
Jerry
Leroy
Wood
McIntosh

Brough
Gaskell

Seb
Leeming
Wakeman

Ferguson
Roberts
Hinchliffe

Taai
O Brien
Rapira
Clough/Dickinson - personally if go for Dickinson this week, used in 2nd row

Mellor to miss this week if injured and it would be suicidal putting him at centre as hes been poor there.

Clough/Dickinson to miss as well.

I think you better beat us tomorrow or you could be joining us in the middles. We've nowt to lose, you have tho.

Wire have done it- so could be squeaky bum time Friday. Can see that getting in to our boys heads tomorrow- could the possibility of finishing in the bottom four affect their performance?
Leigh having nowt to lose isn't true though really is it- unless of course that's the reason for your season- do they really want to finish rock bottom in their first year back in SL, do they want to start there when the eights begin. If they don't care enough then that says a lot!

leigh are rubbish. You'll win by at least 20 points

Whether we finish 11th or 12th we've only got 3 home games. What is important for us is that we need to try and get a bit of momentum, and getting game time for some of our new and returning players. A loss for us won't change anything, but a loss for you might. It's more pressure for you rather than us,but i still think you will win.
