Shall we have a thread for this? Once your club has officially released the 2020 squad numbers, let's post them in here and also have a guess at what you think will be the strongest / most likely match day 17.
Chamberlain, McCarthy, Flash, Burke and Johnson will be pushing the starting 17. Connor-Jones, Kear, Williams and Ormondroyd (sp) will be backup for now but could easily push for starts as the squad is quite balanced.

So much depends on form and injuries but assuming Trinity get no more injuries and the majority of players are on form then Trinity can field a very competitive starting 19 imho.
Walker or Jowitt Lyne or Hampshire Arundel or Lyne Tupou or Atkins Johnstone or Kershaw
Miller Brough or Hampshire
Westerman Tanginoa Ashurst Fifita J Wood Arona
Green Kopczak Pitt’s K Wood
Back up forwards Batchelor Tangata Crowther King Gwaze Kirmond.... all SL experienced.
Choices in the back line even missing BJB and ditto back row.
HB pickings slim and could do with another prop, however two quota spots still free.

Fairly clear cut I expect
1. Ratchford 2. Lineham 3. King 4. Gelling 5. Charnley 6. Austin. 7. Widdop (Patton for the first few weeks) 8. Hill 9. D Clark 10. Cooper 11. Currie 12. Murdoch-Masilla 13. Hughes
14. Philbin 15. Akaouala 16. J Clark 17. Walker / Mamo / Davis (would depend on opposition I expect).
Still have cap space to add a good prop to the squad by all accounts and we certainly need it. Be interesting to see if Burrell can kick on and challenge for a first team spot but at he minute he's well down the pecking order.

Picking the 17 for Hull is a really tough call. There are a few positions where I really don't know how we will go, and the squad numbers just raise more questions than answers. But I will take a stab.
Squad numbers:
1. Jamie Shaul 2. Bureta Faraimo 3. Carlos Tuimavave 4. Josh Griffin 5. Adam Swift 6. Jake Connor 7. Marc Sneyd 8. Scott Taylor 9. Danny Houghton 10. Chris Satae 11. Josh Jones 12. Manu Ma’u 13. Ligi Sao 14. Albert Kelly 15. Joe Cator 16. Jordan Johnstone 17. Matty Dawson-Jones 19. Masi Matongo 20. Brad Fash 21. Jordan Lane 22. Josh Bowden 23. Andre Savelio 24. Mahe Fonua 25. Connor Wynne 26. Kieran Buchanan 27. Liam Harris 28. Lewis Bienek 29. Gareth Ellis 30. Jack Brown 31. Cameron Scott 33. Ratu Naulago
My potential 17:
Shaul Naulago Tuimavave Fonua Swift Connor Sneyd Taylor Houghton (Johnstone will start the season) Satae Jones Ma'u Sao
Kelly Griffin Bowden Savelio
But honestly I could pick 5 or 6 teams and each would be as likely as the last.
Subs 10 - Mose Masoe 16 – Dan Murray 17 – Kyle Trout 18 – Jez Litten
Rest of the Squad 13 - Dean Hadley 19 – Will Dagger 20 – Mikey Lewis 21 – Owen Harrison 22 - Nick Rawsthorne 23 – Ethan Ryan 24 Joe Keyes 25 – Matty Gee 26 – Will Maher 27 – Elliot Minchella 28 – Matty Storton 29 - Anesu Mudoti 31 – Ryan Brierley

That squad looks really thin to me but so did Salford last year so I expect to see you at Old Trafford

My guess at how Wigan will line up against Warrington in round 1 (who I think he will pick, not necessarily who I would pick)
FB 6 French RW 2 Marshall RC 1 Hardaker LC 23 Bibby LW 5 J.Burgess SO 31 Hastings SH 7 Leuluai P 14 Flower H 9 Powell P 10 G.Burgess SR 11 Isa SR 12 Farrell LF 13 O'Loughlin
S 8 Clubb S 15 Greenwood S 16 Smithies S 22 Clark
Injured - Gildart, Manfredi
Only just missing out - Hankinson, Bullock, Partington
