There's a good chance that this could be the last meaningful Derby for a long time (unless we draw each other in the Cup)

Squads named tomorrow

If everyone from Saturday is available and Mini and Carlos are back, then this might be Radders toughest team selection in a long time.

I hate being favourites

I like being the favourites when we are the Form team of SL
Form and confidence are beautiful assets
We have them in abundance
Tight game but us by 18

No pressure on us, We have a nice cushion above 6th, as long as we don't panic, we should win this one.

Rovers at home isn't easy though, as Wigan and Warrington have found.

Nothing against young Buchanan who's done well last 2 games, but if Mini is fit, then Mini comes in on that left edge, moving Griff back to centre.

Carlos may need someone to be unavailable or rested to get back in, it's difficult to see who should be left out. Our right edge is firing on all cylinders at the moment.

We will have to see if Albert comes through, he seemed to have a couple of niggles against the French.

I think he'd have to be badly injured to miss out on this one, and judging by Radders post match comments, it didn't sound too bad, although I've learnt to take Radders comments with a pinch of salt these days.

One things for sure, competition for places is finally hotting up and nobody wants to be sat on the sidelines.

Kelly won't make it unfortunately.

I'm of the opinion that if Mini and Carlos are both fit, it is Mini that has to work harder to get back in the side. Keep Griffin in the back row. He showed, that when he can get earlier ball, that he is a weapon

I want Rovers to stay up, I'd rather have the Derby than not, I have lots of Rovers friends and I'd rather they be happier than some Leeds fans that I don't know. Plus it's great for our city to have 2 top flight teams.

The problem is, they're pretty crap this year. Sitting bottom of the table, just been beaten by the favourites for the drop and have already suffered a record Derby defeat this year. Their shining light is that Leeds are truly awful too.

Not to worried Mrs B, we have developed into a “team” who seemingly can play footie, regardless who’s in or out

If there is any doubt with Kellys or Houghtons fitness after both taken off early against Cats then both should be rested.

If Carlos is fit and ready to go then Connor to replace Kelly in the halves and Carlos to slot back in and Griffin back in at centre and Mini back in.

Or keep as was against Catalans, leave Buchanan at centre, leave Griffin in 2nd row and have Mini on the bench in place of Fash. If Houghton not 100% then rest him and put Litten in.
