I see we have named Patterson Lund and Graham, who don't even have squad numbers. Warrington could go something like this, squad numberswise?

Starting 13 looks OK, bench will be weak again.

Question is if Masi is still struggling with a shoulder injury the give an opportunity to another young player. I like Masi but he seems to be turning into another Chris Green in that he has all the attributes & physicality to be a top forward but just lacks the aggression.

Need some bodies back soon with our home form it’s going to be a tough 80mins (if we even play for 80) and Wires away form something has to give.

Just hope we come out from the off fired up and show a real desire to front up in defence and not give them any time/space. If we afford Austin the time and space it will be a long painful night.

Savelio needs to put a run of games together or I'd be looking to pay him off for next season, good player when fit, but those days have been very rare the last 3 years. Sounds harsh but in a salary cap sport we cant afford to carry such a big earner.

The club seem to have been very cagey about injuries and timescales this year.
Unless I've missed updates.

Connor, knee, another month at least.
Faraimo hernia surgery.
Swift, Naulago, Cator, hamstring, always hard to predict.
Savelio, knee, no timescale reported.

I'd imagine the opposition will be just as interested in timescales, so why tell them?

Other teams do, not sure how it will help them, they will just look at the 21 man squad to plan the tactics.
