Yeh, it's a free hit for us this.
Nothing to lose.

Be interesting to see the selections, particularly how, Myler, Hardaker, Smith and Leeming are used.
I'd go for:

Hardaker
Briscoe
Martin
Sutcliffe
Handley
Austin
Myler
Oledski
O'Connor
Prior
Bentley
Thompson
Smith

Tetevano
Leeming
Walters
Donaldson

We are on a roll nothing to lose, playing with desire and confidence, arguably the form side of the competition. They look flaky and certainly beatable.

Cons losing Sezar plus outside backs decimated.

Plus Not beat Saints for 4 years time to reverse that, surely its due and stop them doing 4 in a row.
If we win its 9 Grand final wins to their 8

Saints look flakey?? Oh and should you win it'll be nine SuperLeague titles each

Given all the coverage on the Knowles chicken wing and incompetence of the MRP I really hope it’s a good game and not mired in controversy. The sport needs a break from it.

We have hope from having beaten both Wigan and Catalan twice in the last few months.

But this is another step up. We’ve lost our last 11 v Saints so it’s a massive ask. To get a win I think we need them to be a bit off and we will have to bring more to the table on attack that we’ve seen for a few weeks.

They will go after us early on particularly Mik and Zane.
Agree with Simmo feels like a free hit and hope the losing tide finally turns today.

I know he but it just seems to me that Saints and Bradford wining SuperLeague by finishing first have been forgotten

We need forwards tonight, not Dwyer on top of O'connor and Leeming.

Thats the team i would choose.

What did we say about Rohan's comment about Myler and Austin in the halves being the "obvious" choice? Come on the lads.
