I'd go with same as Sunday except I'd have Sharpe in the bench instead of Crooks... Crooks is too small and inexperienced for such s big game.

The only thing that I think could change from the team that beat Huddersfield would be our options on the bench. Last week we had Crooks on the bench, but I don't think that he's suitable to be interchanging into the back row. The options would be either Turner as an interchange backrower and Crooks as centre, or switch Crooks for Bowden (which would give us 2 Props, 1 Second Row, and 1 Utility forward on the bench).

No Westwood or Carvell in their squad! I'm feeling more and more optimistic all the time! It will be the same 17 for us for sure. They have class all over the park but if we get in their faces there is no doubt we also have the class to roll them over. 'Come on u ull'

The loss of Westwood & Carvell is a massive boost for us, however I am under no illusion that this will not be an easy game far from it and I still consider it a big ask to go there and turn them over, not impossible though but far from easy.

First 20 is massive. If we're still in the game at that point we'll win imo.

Whilst they don't have Westwood and Carvell, and Hodgson is a doubt, we are missing Moa, Tickle and Whiting to it evens out.

I'd go with the same 17 as in the Huddersfield game.

Agree with Superbowl Scott that a good start is vital for us.

This game can turn a successful season of transition into a great season. As has been said - a strong start is a must.

Might be a controversial call, but I'd select Bowden on the bench instead of Crooks. I feel we will need the extra forward power/rotation.

Same 17, like I said on the other thread all about first 20.

No, it's about the full 80.

saints played the perfect game against wire last week and we need to replicate it. Defend like we did for 78 minutes of the hudds game and we have a chance but we need to improve our attack as wire are significantly better in defence than hudds were last week
