How about we appeal the Connor decision, and test the water, another case of the rugby league muppets shooting themselves in the foot. Wigan and Saints must have different tackling techniques.

Shaul
Swift
Wynne
Carlos
Mcintosh
Reynolds
Sao
Houghton
Fash
Griffin
Lane
Lovodua

Scott
Brown
Satae
Young backrower whose name I've forgotten.

weather may be our greatest hope on saturday, early forecast is rain til 3pm, other than that, damage limitation, hopefully the players will honour Johnny on the field with a committed effort

Who's been sent off this week....

Let's not go over the top yes we've got a couple out but every team Has

12 of the 17 are in our strongest 17

Some of our fans talk at times like we play the u15s when we have injuries

Our biggest problem is our youngsters the last 10 years ( Shaul aside ) have been average super league players at best

Unlike when we had top super league players like Horne yeaman Cooke as youngsters

Somehow I manage to mess up the team every week

Over the top? 6 players out who would be in the starting 17 then add connor and savellio to that list! No team could expect to get close to saints with that many missing

Think Hodgson will use JJ at loose again with Lovodua off the bench. Cam Scott would probably start back row too, he was due to play there before Carlos and Griffin dropped out last week.

Shaul, Swift, Griffin, Carlos, Mcintosh, Reynolds, Gale, Sao, Houghton, Fash, Scott, Lane, JJ

Satae, Brown, Lovodua, Wynne/Bowden?

If we can get through this game and Salford injury and suspension free things should start to look better squad wise. We should have Cator, Mau, Evans back in the mix plus Connor and Savelio

I see Bentley's appeal went well, increased to 4 matches, so he now misses our game against Leeds in a few weeks time.

Precisely

Our "best" 17 (unavailable in bold)
Connor
Swift
Griffin
Tuimavave
McIntosh
Reynolds
Gale
Satae
Houghton
Evans
Ma'u
Savelio
Lane

Sao
Taylor
Cator
Lovodua

So 8 missing as it stands, best case 6 if both centres are fit. Saints are missing Grace - is that it?

Satae had HIA not Gayle so he may well be missing?

Sao had a HIA and passed so should be fine.
