Some difficult decisions to be made on the side next week. The good news is we are playing the weakest team in the league. There's never a good time to be light on numbers but at least this is still a game we should win.

Obviously centre is the big issue. For me there's 3 options. Put Connor there, give Ferriera a debut, or put a second row there (probably Lane).

If Sneyd escapes a ban I'd go with Connor. I'm reluctant to move him from full back but I think that's the option that gives the best balance to the side. However if Sneyd does get banned I would rather keep Connor at the back to pull the strings, otherwise Reynolds is pretty much going to need to do everything.

If Sneyd does indeed get banned I'd like to see Ferriera get a chance. I don't think Leigh have anyone in their backline that's going to give him a torrid time. So let's see how he goes. I could also see merit in putting Lane there because, again, they don't have any superstar backs to exploit him imo, and he can probably do some damage running his lines a bit wider.

For me I'd go with this:

Connor
Faraimo
Ferriera
Fonua
Swift
Reynolds
McNamara
Satae
Houghton
Sao
Savelio
Ma'u
Lane

Fash
Brown
Johnstone
Vulikijapani

It's makeshift, but that starting pack should be too much for Leigh to handle really.

Ferreira is injured too I believe

... Ferreira out for several weeks with an ACJ (shoulder) injury.

Oh well scrap that then

Maybe it will have to be Connor.

Get Wynne in at centre.

Has he got any experience there? It's not an easy position to play. Defensively it's probably the position you are most likely to be found out, and is Wynne a good enough tackler to compensate for any bad positions he finds himself in?

He seems a decent enough fullback I’m sure he can adapt. As someone else alluded to sticking fullbacks at centre works for the aussies, and I’d rather try that than move our form player or Lane/savelio when we’ve got a depleted pack.

Ellis to make another return?

Yeamo

I can see Wynn taking over fullback with Connor moving to centre until we get Carlos back , I thought it was Fonua's best game for us last night for a while so it looks like he's got an extended run at centre . Vulikijapani would cover wing .

Little point playing Wynne on the wing when we have Mitch available who despite his lack of R/L experience has more to offer than Wynne as a winger.
I think Mitch will play at Leigh with Faraimo/Fonua as his centre but if we are talking 1 or two matches then i would move Connor into the centre and play Wynne at full back

Pretty much how I see it too to be fair.

Anxious wait for the disciplinary this week.

At least there's no serious injury, which is good news.
