Looking ahead to Saturday at home the Leigh I would leave Walker and Houghton out if they have tweaked hamstrings as reported no point risking either them even if they are only very minor tweaks. If so does Litten come in at FB, Hoy go in the halves and Brown at 9?

With Pele, Sutcliffe, Brown and possibly Tindall back it gives us some much need bodies back in the 17.

I would hope that we would see Balmforth given an opportunity to, if he doesn't then I'm not sure he has any future at the club under Smith.

Hopefully Ashworth won't (and shouldn't) receive any further punishment from his yellow but I won't hold my breath on that one as can see Cullen and his cronies giving a grade D charge and 2 game ban.

If Sutcliffe comes straight back in does Smith move McIntosh back on the wing or leave him at Centre and drop Carlos? Personally think McIntosh has done well at centre and can't say I've been convinced with Carlos so far.

Is Cam Scott back too?

Not sure, thought I'd read an article of Dans late last week that alluded to Cam Scott being back but in his article this morning it only mentions Scott and Barron as being close to being back and not that they are.

Tbh…we should be winning this game,Leigh down on numbers and the have been found out now.Are we keeping Bullock as not seen anything about him.

We should be throwing everything at Leigh for this one , We also have our starting pack out on the field again barring any suspensions tonight . The return of sutcliffe is a big help also .

Had read via another poster (cant remember who) that we may be keeping Bullock till end of the season.

Could probably survive without Bullock, but still handy to have him in the squad, might depend on what happens with Ashworth tonight.

Had heard last early week that we are looking to keep Bullock and Wire would be willing subject to them not having any injury concerns themselves. Could be the reason the rumour of Brown to Rovers next year appeared back end of last week?

Agree, with the players we have coming back and Leigh being without arguably their 3 most influential players in Asiate, Lam & Ipape we have to be looking at winning this game at home.

Not saying its going to be easy as Leigh are still a good side and we are renowned for making heavy weather of games.

I'm not as confident as some on here.

They were very good in the first half against Leeds. I don't think we'd come back from 0-16 like the Rhinos did.

We should be throwing everything at every team we play. It's winnnable but Leigh are still a quality team even without those 3 players, their backline is far better than ours and have some power in the pack.

Leigh are a very good SL team and will have more than enough to put us away, we need to turn up with the right mentality and keep errors and pens to a minimum (so basically the opposite of what we've been doing so far).

I'd like to think our pack could get on top especially when Amone and Mulhern go off but our backs and halves could struggle against theirs.

Wonder who's up for red card roulette this week?

Interesting to see how Pele gets on this week and whether he gets too fired up trying to make amends for round 1

Tindall
