I’d be tempted to start with Flower and TT with Bullock and Navarette off the bench. We need TT and Navarette to bring it and not give their usual drivel.

I’m actually quite encouraged with that squad. A marker for the season could be laid on Friday.


I wonder if we can hypnotise Naverette into thinking he's playing against Les Cats ?
He always seems to grow an extra leg when we play them :D

Most idiotic post ever goes to Grimmy..... The way to restart should be an arm wrestle between a designated player from each side.

Escare to 7, Sharrocks to 9 when/I’d Tommy goes off. Thoughts of moving Williams from half back are crazy

I'm not sure we get any direction at all with Escare and Williams as our halves though.

The wheels falling off again in the last two games has been more due to the decimation of the pack by injuries than anything else. Just like two years ago when we had to run with a load of kids all at once they are doing their best but the lack of experienced heads is hitting us hard. Two big and battle hardened packs have driven through us. The squad announced indicates that we are beginning to get some of the missing bodies back. Though still unlikely to beat Saints it is possible that we could see an upturn in level of performance back towards the level of the Salford and Catalan games that came post Warrington and before the injuries.

Yeah, but I wonder how many of our powder-puff forwards cry off during the course of this one?

Tautai for Escare for me. We need a big bench and Tommy's defence.

I don’t think Tommy can do 80 mins, particularly as he was 50/50 with a calf strain after last week’s game. Partington and Smithies have got decent engines for big minutes and Escare might just give us something extra with the ball. I’m dreading the game, roll on 5pm on Friday!

We have been 2nd best in everything they are far superior to us. We are going down unless something miraculous happens, we can't defend, we can't do basics, we have no discipline and our attack is so hit and miss it's not funny.

I'm so glad I didn't waste money on a season ticket, after the continuing letting go of quality and not replacing with quality and the continuing cost cutting and a coach out of his depth, this is what you get!!!!

The cost cutting is because Lenagan has been funding our losses caused by a fall in attendances. So giving up a season ticket is only going to make it worse, imo. Anyone can support a team when it’s winning etc etc.
