Not easy! : Sun Mar 29, 2009 12:40 pm  

Three tough games in 8 days.

Sun 5 April - Leeds away Challenge Cup

Thurs 9 April - Wigan away Super League

Mon 13 April - Hull home Super League.

Injuries could be even more decisive.

Only the Leeds game matters though at this stage of the season.

The Wigan game is stupidly close to the Leeds game for us so I'd do a Millward and put the kids out, give them their chufty bangs and save our troops for the Hull game.

I don't think we'll have a problem with Wigan or Hull, Leeds in the cup will be the big test.

Personally thats what I think Potter will do. Sunday is a huge game that will take a huge amount out of the players if we win or lose and there's a possibilty that it could go into extra time.

Personally thats what id do as people have said its a short turnaround from the Leeds game to the Wigan game on the Thursday. Easter Monday back at full strength providing no injuries are gained.

Dixon is out long-term and why do Hargreaves Vs Leeds ?

Personally this is only my opinion but Puletua, Graham, Fa'asavalu and Cayless are all better in the front row than Hargreaves. Against Leeds we will need our best front row on the paddock.

I'd say Hargreaves is more mobile, stronger, a better tackler and can play more minutes than Cayless.

I concur, Hargreaves is ahead of Cayless in the condition he is in currently. But personally I'd overload with forwards given the versatility we have the side. (Gilly, Wilkin and Flannery could easily cope with any outside back position).

I hope thats the team, strong all over especially in the forwards and good impact to come on off the bench.

I agree with stonecold_jpm.
