Hope it's true Roby doesn't play. He's been a stand out in the Sts games I've seen so far. We'd struggle to contain him. Barba very good also.
My slant. Sts will be too fast for us any breaks theyll finish off. As well as we might play cant see past a 20 ish points Sts win.

half the leeds squad was out and we couldn't beat them- I hope I am wrong but we are not wining games against the BIG clubs this year.

Well, again you are factually incorrect but it's fair to draw your conclusion if you don't understand the facts of the games that have happened.
No one would blame you for giving up. With the outlook of such a poor season you may as well just watch your local side. Why not check in next season and see if things have improved.

They must have the smallest squad in SL then

I think that Saints have 3 main players who you have to try and stop in order to have a chance. Barba who has been brilliant all season and looks a class above anyone else in the league in attack (yet to be convinced by his defence). Roby who has probably been the best and most consistent hooker in Super League and even at his age can change a game with his work from Dummy Half. The final one is Danny Richardson. Richardson is a player who i rate highly and he has played fantastic during their last 2 visits to Belle Vue.

Yes I know they have quality all over the field and it is easier said than done but stopping these 3 or at least limiting their impact could go a long way to determining the result

I hope the players are bang up for this, if I remember rightly Saints at home cost us twice for the top 4 - both the regular season and playoffs. LMS giving it the big one after the second game with the Grix error. Hopefully the players remember that too.

That said, no Walmsley, looks like no Roby. If the team play for the full 80 (which I don't think has happened yet this season?) then I fancy us to cause an upset.

I'm going to guess Hampshire is injured because why else would he be changed for Finn after his performance last week? Seriously starting to question Finn's inclusion. (Probably win us the game with the boot on Sunday now...)

Interesting squad, with a few changes.
I agree that Hampshire , unless injured, is very unlucky to be "rotated".
With Big Dave still missing, its a surprise not to have Pauli in there and we will get to see if this helps the penalty / error count.
Good to England back in there but our pack looks a bit light.

Sanits havent named Roby though and that looks like good news for Trinity.

The forward battle should be a decent match up and IF we can match them up front, we have a chance

Grix in for Jowitt as well. Saints will see our attacking moves 5 sets in advance.

Yes, I can only presume Hampshire has picked up a knock, if not, he certainly deserved to keep his place.

I would be concerned, if it was the latter, given the conversation on here earlier this week, regarding retiring players. Half back pairings need time together to gel properly. I would say that given the clubs slow start in 2016, it probably took Miller and Finn about 10-12 games. If Hampshire is seen as the long term successor to Finn, then he and Miller need time together to gel properly.
