Will be very interesting to see the team selection. I know we should take one game at a time, but there has to be one eye on the week after to give ourselves the best chance of staying in all the competitions available. 

Think the injury update earlier this week said something like 1 or 2 weeks away. 

Cas look awful as mentioned in the TV games thread. They haven't looked good in any game so far this season. They looked gassed playing in those conditions and that should have taken lot out of them. 
Quick turnaround also, these are the teams we need to be beating and should have a good chance on Thursday 
. 

Surely they can't be that bad 2 weeks in a row? 

You’d think not and don’t call me Shirley 

Another tough mental test three issues paramount one that they are abysmal and easy to take for granted two that they will have a pride to be a lot better in second consecutive home game and three the Elephant in the room 9 days after this game. Another big test of our fortitude and ability to shut out the surrounding noise. 

Huge test of where we are, we'll probably go in as favourites which brings a different mentality, hopefully we'll be up for it especially with a 9 day turnaround.


Fingers crossed we'll get a couple back maybe Balmforth and Aydin?

Expect a win. Not said that in a long time. Maybe a chance for Will Hutchinson to spell Bourouh. Second row is an issue - is Jebson ready or another up and coming. Prefer  Chamberlain to stay in the centre. Briscoe and Lewis on the wings. There seems no problem with props. Rapana at FB for me Moy on bench. Must be focused for this and start better than we have been doing. If you don’t do the one percents then you lose in SL. To me this is as much a must win as any

Play as we have been and we win. Drop off a where and we probably lose. We may have one eye on the cup game so that may influence selection

I thought the same about Watts and ashworth although most seemed to disagree.  If we go with those 4 I'd be tempted to start one of them and start with Knight on the bench although personally I wouldn't play Watts as he'll probably get sent off against his former club
