Haha yeah there is that.
Still yours to lose.

I reckon most are over thinking this. Quite simply Powell is looking after the best interests of his squad/team. I doubt he's gives a flying f**k about anyone else and rightly so.

Whether there is any animosity between Powell and Wane I don't know.
However, when Wigan won the WCC Powell apparently was the only SL coach who didn't contact Wane and congratulate him.

Very good of the Greatest Team of All Time to give us a fighting chance on Friday.

5 day turnaround for cas followed by 6 day turnaround, Powell is being sensible and looking after his squad for next week and have earnt the right to do this by being miles ahead.

Balls totally in our court now

Really good to see green back. Him and Bowden together gives us a real rotation of big men. Fash been great tbf to him but doesn't take up the defenders like green does and id not expect him to ,and thommo has been poor tbh. Expected a lot more out of him. Thought he'd be chomping at the bit to show what he can do having missed Wembley and whilst Green out. Been really flat/poor

powell doesn't want his first choice line up to lose a week before the play offs which is understandable. Personally I'd rather play their full strength team where we'll be fully focused and they'll have an eye on the semi than a team with a fair chunk of fringe players looking to make a play for a place next week

A sensible decision by Powell. Will be surprised to see him play Webster and with Moors also not there he could have 9 of his preferred team out.

Hull will not lose this one.

A bit like that game we played at Wigan a couple of years ago with a load of youngsters keen to impress - we almost won as well. Going to be a very difficult challenge. Could be raining too.

Are you trying to wind Tony up already?

Anyone fancy Salfords chances against Saints tonight?
