Never going to happen but I'd have Bowes in for Lino or Hood.

I like Eseh but he's still very raw and made a few errors against Saints, but the props pick themselves. Like Atoni at 13. Has a good pair of hands for a forward.

You'd play Bowes at stand off?

No at 9 with Kay at 6 if Lino was replaced, or Kay and Bowes interchanging at 9 if Hood drops out.

Good lineup but I’d swap Atoni and Battye round.
Eddie has a good pair of hands and has had a few games at 13 before. Just my personal choice.
We need Kaye on the bench but it’s tough on Bowes.

Just watched the Saints game back and we will give ourselves half a chance against Les Cats if we can dramatically cut down on our errors ,( forced & unforced ) . Looking back at it now it had a real impact on our chances of creating any kind of pressure on Saints as time and time again we came up with some howlers ,the Franco one in particular was a dagger to the heart ,gifting Makinson probably his easiest try of the season .At times we went toe to toe for long periods with Saints who made more than their fare share of errors but the big difference was they capitalised on ours whereas we didn’t or couldn’t .

Sadly, how many times have we said that about cutting down on our errors

We’ve never shook that particular hoodoo off bar the odd games ,expected it in the early games but they should have got it out of their systems a long time ago

A win tomorrow, Bongser thinks, would provide the fillip you need for surviving AGAIN. You've beaten Wigan this season (Leigh haven't sadly) so trump us again by beating Cats. It would put, errm, something amongst the pigeons in this most extraordinary of seasons. Good luck.

Don't forget people, that it is a 7.30 kick off tomorrow

Well, this heat will certainly suit Catalans, have to make sure there's vociferous home support for the lads
this evening. Be loud and proud!

I always believed Trinity play better in the heat. We don’t seem to fair well in the rain or cold conditions. Be interesting to see some stats.

Is Tom Johnstone still out with his recent concussion problem?

I agree, we do.
Unfortunately, Catalan may also feel that way.
