Yes, I will be in there too, though probably from about 6.

It is part leaving do, as I have just handed in my notice where I work, and so has my colleague, who is a Cas fan, and he leaves tomorrow. Just need to nip home before hand, but dont finish till 5.30

Anyway, back to the OP.

I think BJB and Tupou both picked up knocks at Warrington, so our hands could be tied there.

If so, would have no issues with Arundel or Caton Brown coming in.

Can't see Finn, Miller, Wood, Randell and Hampshire all being in the 17, unless Randell is playing at 13.

Big Dave though is a big miss

Anyone fancying a flutter on Trin, we are getting 6 start on the handicap.
I fear it wont be enough and we're in for another reverse against Cas.
Hope i'm wrong and that Gale has a stinker.

Come on Trin !

Thought CC's post match interview made interesting listening in regards to the 19 man squad...

Started off by saying Kirmo and Big Dave miss out through injury but with what he went on to say after it makes me wonder whether there will be a spot for Big Dave?

He mentioned bringing Joe Arundel in because there were initial thoughts that BJB and Bill picked up knocks but said both were ok to play...he then went on to say both Joe and MCB will play on Monday along with a few others and that Rocky Hampshire will play in the halves....to me that says JA and MCB miss out on the 17 for tomorrow so the backs should line up like this..

Grix
Johnstone
Tupou
Lyne
BJB
Miller
Finn

He also spoke of Randell and that he will start nine and said Woody will be on the bench...with that in mind I dont see a spot for Rocky on the bench...what would be the point in that? So that's 3 of the original 19 man squad out...does that pave the way for Dave to come in and play? He said his problem was a groin that 's been an ongoing problem and has been having injections....given that he's had the week off do we go all out to beat Cas tomorrow night and risk him?

Would leave the rest of the team something like...

England
Randell
Huby
Ashurst
Horo
Arona

Wood
Pauli Pauli
Hirst
Fifita???

Looking at Craig Huby's interview on Trinity TV it looks like he will be asked to play bigger minutes and then get Monday off...England has been great this season and has been doing long stints so it just leaves me wondering whether we are going all out for the two points in this and then leaving Monday to really freshen up and see what happens as the Monday games are usually a lottery!

Rumour at Cas is that Trueman will start at full back and Roberts at 6 because Ellis picked up a knock. Think it will be a torrid night for Milky.

I am sitting here at work listening to the pulse of west Yorkshire!(reminds me of going out in wakey - how I miss it)
and they are saying it will be raining all day today! so a wet track again ? what are your thoughts good or bad for us?

so excited they are on tele over here!!!!!!

Local forecast last night said it was going to be reasonably dry and a decent day...it’s crisp and fresh with a bit of frost around but dry and looks set to be nice...the trusty iPhone weather is saying sunny spells up until this afternoon then between 30-50% chance of rain this aft...could be a nice dry evening I reckon...

Come on then Trinity fans, where we meeting tonight?

Must say I am getting rather excited for this one! This time last year I was expecting a bit of a drumming from Cas, its nice to go into this not expecting a win but knowing we are in with a chance should we play well enough!

Bellevue seems as good a place as any, come and introduce yerself I'll have a Wakey top on.

Same, I'll be on the one shouting chissitt in the Northstand

Bring it on! Get work out of the way then the mad dash down the road for a pre-match shandy or two. COME ON TRINITY!

why milky?

For me this is how i see the two sides -

Pack - Evenly matched throughout, if Fifita does not play (Which does not look likely as he is not in the 19) I think they might just have the slight edge here, they seem well oiled and sing of the same hymn sheet - Moors and Millington seem to get a bit of a role on, Massey is average but he is a workhorse. I don`t really rate Springer or Green though. The second row looks pretty evenly matched, Cook was brilliant in the first half last week at Leeds, Ashurst always stands up well.. Horo has to be better this week although he has already shown he is a workhorse in defense.

Backs - Centres are a hand full in Webster and Shenton, we know Bill has been playing really well, he is a threat in attack and holds his own in defence - Depending on whether we go with Lynne or Arundel isn`t it? Arundel i think is better at putting his winger away and solid in defence, Lynne on his day can carve defences up and gives us big threat.

For me were we have the advantage is on the wings, we have two of the fastest wingers in the league and two of the best in the air! On the other hand Minikin seems weak under the high ball and him and James Clare are not the fastest, if we can break them on the wings we could very well score a few tries on the flanks.

Fullback is an uncertainty for them, Roberts is prone to an error and Truman is inexperienced and his confidence will take a knock if we preassure him right from the off. Where as in my eyes with Grix we have one of the safest pair of hands in the league.

We need to target there weaknesses right from the off and try and give them very little time on the ball right from the off to have a chance of getting the result tonight. Easier said than done i know!
