With Boxing Day just two weeks away, what do we think the squad will look like? Apparently all the new lads will get a run out for the game.

Any players had post seasons operations? obviously Watkins won't play, think I've seen on different social media sources that Ferres and Crosby have had leg braces on and think i saw Cuthbertson with a arm brace on but not 100% sure about them.

It will be a mixed bag from both teams - I actually love these games because you get to see up and coming players for the first time in a semi competitive game. Tom Johnstone amongst a few others made his first team debut in one of these games - spotting who's going to make it is part of the fun, and yes I did think TJ would make it. :D

I wouldn't mind seeing all of the young Rhinos who played for England v the Aussies getting gametime tbh.

Do Wakefield have any notable up and coming young players? There were no Wakefield players in the England Academy squad last night, Leeds dominated the squad with 7 players.

Think quite a big thing was made about Delaney putting in a swansong appearance for Leeds in this game wasn't there? Though he's been in Australia for the last week or two and has only just resumed pre-season training so might be just a cameo.

I wonder if Donaldson would be allowed to play even if he hasn't officially signed?

Yes trialists are allowed to play. In theory a trial player can play in any game.
