Surprised there's no thread on this one yet seeing there's only 3 days to go, but anyway..

With our recent stumbles and it being a "must win/cup final" event for Rovers to progress to avoid the Middle 8s, I can see us coming a cropper here. They have multiple returning players, apparently, whilst we have doubts over:
Sneyd
Shaul
Tuimavave
Watts
Pritchard
Ellis
Minichiello
Green

As always there'll be differing views on whether we gamble on fitness of key players, but I really think Radford will have an eye on the cup. With the "decider" for the season's derbies (assuming Rovers don't make the 8 ) already won in May, I'd be conservative in my squad selection. Either way I've heard they're planning to blitz us early doors.

Important game as Saints are sneaking up on the top 4 and they could be 4 points behind us at the split. Interesting squad and team selection, I wouldn't risk anyone not 100%.

We should be confident whatever team we put out, we have talked about our strength and good young players, now it's time to test it out.

I'd expect Sneyd, Ellis, Green and Mini to be OK

So worst case scenario

Pryce/Naughton
Fonua
Micheals
Yeaman
Talanoa
Pryce/Abdul
Taylor
Houghton
Green
Manu
Mini
Ellis

Hadley
Bowden
Washy
Tomo

Confident there Dave, starting with 12 men.

Sneyd.

Shaul will be OK to play but i expect Naughton will come in on the wing for either Talanoa or Fonua with Michaels moving to centre
Will be interesting if Radford does drop Fonua as it will be the first time any of our overseas boys from this year have been dropped.

think naughton will be fullback, id swop fonua and micheals,hopefully green ellis mini all fit, Abdul and pryce might be our new halfbacks?

Crikey.

I've been saying it all season, but we are desperate for some pace out wide, when Leeds kicked long with one minute to go, I knew it was over as apart from Shaul we have no other player who could go 70/80 meters.

I don't think we can have Fonua, Yeaman and Talanoa in the back 4, all to simalar and game is based on strength.

I'd drop Fonua, I also drop Manu, if we have the players back, but that looks unlikely.

Big question could be stand off, Pryce or Abdul.

fonua looks like a winger playing centre, let him and micheals swop , still think fonua brings us a bit of biff but he cert needs to up his defense

id give Abdul the 6

Think he'll go with Pryce.
I'd be tempted to play Naughton, even if Shaul is fit. Need an injection of pace.

Whatever team we put out, the Dobbins will be fired up for it.
They are due to win one, which worries me.
