2x tickets bought

also excited!

the bookies have us as slight faves for this game...

tempting but always feel widnes are hard to beat at home.

stan james have us at 14/1 to be in the top 4 this season, thats not a bad price!

Only Mamo unavailable for selection this week. Stone said Gaskell had a "blip" last week whatever that means and is available for selection.

Oldham could potentially have Daniel Smith, Nathan Mason, Paul Clough, Sam Wood, Tyler Dickinson, Lee Gaskell, Dale Ferguson, Mikey Wood, Liam Johnson & Gene Ormsby all available to play for them at the weekend.

Anyone know how far Jake Wardle is off been fully fit? surely must be fit by now

I were Mr Stone, I go for...

1. Mckintosh
2. McGilvarry
3. Cudjoe
4. Lawrence
5. Murphy
6. Brough
7. Brierley
8. Rapira
9. Leeming
10. Smith
11. Symonds

Jake Wardle theee weeks off doing contact

Two weeks then ok for an academy start

and missed the warm up games so dont think we will see him play sl this season, same goes for jared simpson

but lets hope we do! then again if they do it may be because we have injury problems so maybe not

19 man squad named
It's interesting for sure

no obrien probably the only one you would have thought would be in the 19 who isnt, maybe he didnt do enough in his pre season games, in the 2 i saw he was pretty poor, leeming can play big minutes at hooker anyway, seems like hincy will be doing abit of hooking again too!!

i can see the team as

mcintosh

mcgillvary
cudjoe
mellor
murphy

brough
brierley
leeming
