Funnily enough I fancy us for Saints too. Holroyd should be raring to go - I don't know if he's been fully fit all year, and this enforced absence with concussion might have done him the world of good actually. A fit Holroyd makes our pack much stronger (if he can keep his discipline).
If Croft is back, he makes a huge difference to us too - said before but I think he's worth 1-2 tries every game just through his assists.
If Newman is back, again we have that extra strike in the back line and some physicality.
RS needs to get the selection right but we're a definite chance. We also have 2 weeks to prepare for this game with the CC being a distraction, and we have revenge in mind after them turning us over twice at HQ. I reckon we should go well.
I'm praying for Papali'i at the moment, I think he'd be a real good addition if we can land him.
Croft and Newman returning would definitely strengthen us, but they have played in the majority of our games and we are amongst the lowest try scorers in the competition.
We have struggled to rack up decent scores all season and i dont see that changing against Saints whether Croft is back or not.
