It will be cricket score for StHelens. They are having the scoreboard updated to take a 3 figure number.

For me I'd have:-

1. Mathers
2. Fox
3. Collis
4. L.Smith
5. Cockayne
6. Sykes
7. Wood
8. Wilkes
9. Wildie
10. Amor
11. Annakin
12. Aiton
13. Washbrook

14. Mellars (Second Row)
15. Cowling
16. Trout (Prop)
17. Mariano (Make shift Prop)

Come on Wakefield, surprise us all and give them a game.

I'd go with this

Mathers
Fox
Collis
Smith
Cockayne
Sykes
Goulding
Wilkes
Wood
Mariano
Aiton
Anakin
Washbrook

Wildie
Amor
Trout
Mellars

Nowt to lose in giving Goulding a run out, wildie is not a scrum half and ideally we need to have 4 Forwards on bench, plus mellars cud cover three quarters if needed so no need to have an extra back on the bench

Both you and me have seen worse teams (on paper) than that travel to Saints, players missing gives other game time and you never know.

Nothing to lose and everthing to gain.

Who knows Saints might turn up and think 'this game is going to be easy, we're playing a team with youngsters and alot of key players out' or then again they haven't won at home this year but I'll be going and is looking forward to it. Just give a good performance and Im happy.

Although we are extremly light up front, negatives can always be turned into positives. For example Melbourne storm play with a light weight pack compared to most NRL sides, yet have huge effect at play the ball speed and other areas. Now i am not saying we are Melbourne storm, but if we can utilise this it will enable us to play abit quicker and try catch saints out. Our defence is another story. Craig Bellamy over and out.

I'd imagine Trout and Annekin could both play a full game or near it so spell the others and keep those lads on.
It will be hard either way

Possibly play Aiton full game at loose, as we have enough hookers

they have arguably better halves though.
as well as a none-too-shabby hooker and full back.....

that eing said, you guys will have nothing to lose in this game

Cant see any way we can get a win more so after how they beat Warrington but you never know in this game.
1 Mathers
2 Fox/Cowling
3 Collis/Cowling
4 Smith
5 Cockayne
6 Sykes
7 Wood
8 Wilkes
9 Wildie
10 Amor
11 Mellars
12 Mariano
13 Washbrook

14 Goulding
15 Aiton
16 Annakin
17 Trout

Lightweight I know but the order would be go out enjoy and throw the ball about I would probably rest Collis but would also like Cowling to get a game.Aiton on the bench gives him a bit of a rest from his normal full 80 mins.Need to use Mellars speed to effect and Wilkes to get his backside in gear and would have recalled Walshaw on the bench instead of Trout.Keep in mind I think its one we cant win so give the others a chance to gain some experiance and others a rest to be in the best shape for Leeds/Cas/Hull games.

Agree about resting collis.

Am going to switch the radio off at
7.30 friday, just glad teams been announced early so can save the effort of going

All the posters giving up before the game is played would give the players hell if they showed up with that attitude - just saying
