Gotta say im worried for Friday, worst case scenario we are without Mossop, Tuson, Hock, Fielden, Flower, Prescott, Pat, Hansen. Thats some serious key personnel to to Headingley without.

Worst Case Scenario team

1. Sam Tomkins

2. Josh Charnley
3. Darrell Goulding
4. George Carmont
5. Anthony Gelling

6. Brett Finch
7. Tommy Leuluai

8. Gil Dudson
9. Mike McIllorum
10. Jeff Lima
11. Jack Hughes
12. Liam Farrell
13. Sean O'Loughlin

14. Dom Crosby
15. Tom Spencer
16. Eric Lauaki
17. Logan Tomkins

with Lauaki playing in the back row

I'd rather Greg Burke was given a game than Logan Tomkins. If Tomkins is on the bench then chances are he won't even get on the field. Burke would give more options in the pack and give him some valuable experience.

Indeed, never confident when we got to Leeds and this is just a nightmare without Mossop and Hock. Tuson I can take or leave really, I think Jack Hughes is more than adequate replacement for him. But Mossop and Hock are a huge loss. Crosby/Spencer coming in we really need them to fire and hope Lauaki/Lima/Dudson can carry us forward.

Leeds are terrible, quite possibly the worst team billed as "Champions" in living memory. They are that bad in their last home game they were beaten convincingly by Saints...enough said.

We would have to seriously have an off day for them to beat us on Friday, even with three bans and a broken jaw.

I think it says more about the depth of out squad than anything else, that we could be without so many quality players and still have a real chance of beating Leeds on their own ground!

Leeds on their day are still a good side, they just haven't had their day very often this season! They will really fancy their chances on Friday and if we pull it off it will be an outstanding win.

Sam, josh, Goulding, carmont, king, finch, tommy, Dudson, MM, Lima, Farrell, Hughes, Lockers. Subs Lauaki, gelling, Crosby, spencer.

I think we need to be a little worried for Friday, going off past performances Spencer wasnt up to the mark when thrown in against St Helens and hasnt been seen since probably because he dropped the ball in his own half and caused us 15 minutes of pressure and Crosby was taken off against huddersfield immediatley after they levelled the scores up at 12-12 after only being on the field 7 or 8 minutes so to throw them back in at the deep end might be a step too far for these 2 youngsters. Hock will be the biggest loss i think, hes been playing out of his skin of late, but were not a club to shy away from a challenge so who ever shaun opts for wel give it a good go, and weve certainly got some size with the youngsters!

Richards, Prescott, Hansen, Hock, Mossop, Tuson, Thats' 1/3 of the starting 17 likely to be missing so will be well under strength but once Wane gets them fired up whoever is in the cherry and white will give their all.

It's a good job we're playing leeds or else we'd have a big problem.
