you obviously have made your decision

Dawn injuries


Rapana
Watts
Holmes
Fash
Cartwright
Lane


Probably Chamberlain


5 forwards who would be in on Sunday if fit


Chamberlain "far away" doesn't sound good and Holmes was supposed to be back already but seems no clear idea when

Pryce
Barron
Briscoe 
Litten
Martin
Cust
Seizer
Ese
Bourogh 
Knight
Hardaker
Chamberlain 
Asiata 
Subs
Aydin
Ashworth 
Balmforth 
Kirby

Moy and Eseh in the reserves squad so that rules them out.

Glad you?ve not included Sao.

Not sure why Dan keeps including Ligi on his list of injured players when we have released him and replaced with Knight?


Even if he recovers this year we won?t be able to pick him?

dont think the club has released him, we were able to replace him as the rule was he was injured before round 3, same with Leeds with Sivo, they were allowed to replace him whilst still employed by them, they just dont count on the cap.

As I understand it, he hasn't been released and is certainly employed during the duration of his rehab by Hull FC. You are allowed to maintain the employment of a player, should a club wish to honour his contract, but once he has been de-registered he can't return to playing for the rest of that season. Registration and employment are two different things and he is now just a member of staff on the pay roll. .De-registration and returning of the players wages to the cap allocation is only allowed in the 'Initial" rounds of the comp and then only with the permission of the RFL who 'consider the circumstances' before agreeing to it.  

Free hit for me, too many out and Wigan getting some players back.


Have a good crack and hope you have a couple of bodies back for Magic, then a week off.

Looking at the reserves squad, with Kirby named, think Chamberlain must be ok.


Think the bemch will be


Ashworth 
Balmforth 
Aydin
Laidlaw

Not sure loaning out Salabio was wise, would be on the bench for us Sunday, good chance he doesn't get into the Cas 17 with Amone there now

All out rugby reporting that Wigan have Thompson and Keighran back


i'd be happy to have Thompson back, even if he starts on the bench, but would leave Keighran for another week or two, as we arent down in the backs
