| Massive step up for Dudson who's been playing for a team struggling at the wrong end of Championship 1. What a game for the guy to make a name for himself.

| I would definately keep Lima on the bench.
I see Lima, Mossop and Prescott as our main props, with all of them fit it doesnt matter who starts on the bench etc but with one of them out we need to have one starting and one on the bench because if we have to bring 2 of them off and replace them with the lesser props then we lose any fire power that we had in that match. It happened in the opening game vs Huddersfield, we started with Mossop and Lima and when those two came off and Flower and Lauaki came on we got absolutely bullied by their pack.
We need to keep one of Prescott and Lima on the pitch at all times on Friday.
I'd go with:
Tomkins
Charnley
Goulding
Carmont
Richards
Finch
Leuluai
Prescott
McIlorum
Hansen
Hock
Tuson
O'Loughlin
Lima
Mellor
Hughes
Spencer/Dudson depending on Spencers injury.
Gutted the Ginger Pearl is out, he has been in fantastic form recently.

That's the team that I would pick, although it seems like Wane has already made his decision to play Dudson.
I reckon he might go with his favoured 4 forwards on the bench and have Lima, Dudson, Hughes and Spencer, assuming Spencer is fit to play.

Tuggles,you are the first to mention Powell on this thread,maybe its because he suffered an unfortunate injury a couple of weeks ago.
It is said that he suffered a broken leg.

| Quote: bewareshadows "I really don't think Prescott and Lima are going to be able to hold this side together. If I was Saints coach, I'd be bringing out the following pack
Perry Roby LMS
TP Sia
Flanaghan
This would be by far our most agressive pack and whilst your two boys maybe able to handle Perry and LMS, they cannnot cover all 6. It would be effectively like having to handle 4 props all at once and Sia, LMS and TP can all shift when they bust through. I doubt we will go with this as Wilkin is a certain to start, but even with Wilkin is does not stop the impact from our big 4. That would leave us with Flanaghan, Flannery, Clough and Megennis. Why maybe not household names they should be more than able to handle themselves at this level and [iFlanaghan inparticular can really crunch a few in the tackle[/i. Both benches lack strike players, but our 4 can certainly hold the line and did so last week and the week before.
Hock would be the one player we will need to wrap up as he can create 2nd phase but we have tacklers who should be able to wrap him up man and ball.'"
this would be true but they arn't the only two players playing in the pack you forgot to mention hock, hansen and o'loughlin.
no it isn't because sia isn't a prop its like saying hasen is a prop just isn't true just very strong 2nd rows, lms is a prop so cant disagree, tp up against hock will be a good battle both as strong as each other.
[iflash is a cruncher some times but tommy, micky mac and tuson arn't no slouchers[/i
i aint a fortune teller so i dont know what will happen but i know one thing it wont just be preckie and pumba tackleing alone. personal i think the forwards will be a very good battle and let the better side win.

...and that one statement tells us exactly what a plank you are. I think we can safely disregard anything else you have to say.

| Spencer injured, Hanson starts at Prop, Tuson starts in 2nd row, Lima and Dudson on bench the m,ain question is gelling, hughes or mellor on the bench. Any 2 from 3. Gelling to miss out i think.

| So what is going to happen without Lockers? Have 3 props (Prescott, Lima and Dudson) and leave Hansen, Hock, Tuson and Hughes to play in the back row?
I suppose he could play Gelling in the back row but his defence really doesn't fill me with much confidence.
He could also play Mike McIlorum at loose forward, Leuluai at hooker with Mellor in the halves.
