Certainly hope Smith is fit to play Thursday and we can cope with Sangare missing out if Holroyds back.
Interesting looking at the table today.
I know we got wins against Saints, Wigan and Cats unexpectedly.
Had we beat Cas twice and Wakey once we are 3rd in the table.
All ifs and buts I know and close margins.

Warrington are there for the taking if we play well, regardless of Williams. Good test, but will be a lottery which team turns up…..
Crowd will turn on them pretty quick if we get on top.

Good opportunity to build on the positive performance on Friday against a better side. Hopefully the team retain the confidence they showed and Rohan sticks to a simple go forward game plan

Very true.

Good post.

Re: RD 17 | Warrington Wolves (A) : Tue Jun 27, 2023 6:11 pm  

The Rhinos welcome back Papua New Guinea international Nene Macdonald after he completed his return to play protocol following concussion. Tom Holroyd is also back in contention after missing the last three games.
Justin Sangare misses out this week with a foot injury.
Leeds are still without the long term injured players Harry Newman, Zane Tetevano and Morgan Gannon and Cam Smith has not trained all week but is in the 21.

The squad in full is:

1 Richie Myler
2 David Fusitu'a
4 Nene Macdonald
5 Ash Handley
6 Blake Austin
7 Aidan Sezer
8 Mikolaj Oledzki
11 James Bentley
12 Rhyse Martin
13 Cameron Smith
14 Jarrod O’Connor
15 Sam Lisone
16 Derrell Olpherts
18 Tom Holroyd
19 James McDonnell
21 Luke Hooley
22 Sam Walters
24 Luis Roberts
25 James Donaldson
26 Corey Johnson
31 Leon Ruan

Re: RD 17 | Warrington Wolves (A) : Tue Jun 27, 2023 6:23 pm  

Myler
Fusitua
McDonald
Martin
Handley
Austin
Sezer
Oledski
O'Connor
Walters
Bentley
McDonnell
Smith

Johnson
Holroyd
Lisone
Donaldson

If Smith doesn't make it, move Martin to back row and Roberts in the centre.

Re: RD 17 | Warrington Wolves (A) : Tue Jun 27, 2023 9:00 pm  

If Holroyd is fit he has to start he's our best prop by some distance.

Re: RD 17 | Warrington Wolves (A) : Wed Jun 28, 2023 12:45 am  

Holroyd and Nene are definitely fit, Smith is still a doubt

Re: RD 17 | Warrington Wolves (A) : Thu Jun 29, 2023 9:25 am  

Cam Smith in the training photos, so looks like he should be playing if he made it through ok

Let's hope he is fit. Will need him for the subtlety of his attacking game and also his sheer defensive work rate down the middle. Will also need Oledzki, Holroyd, and Lisone to find their best form against the threat of Vaughan and Kasiano. We've beaten ourselves in a lot of games this season, but at Wire on the 1st night we got a real beating. We owe them one.
