Surely a decent chance Walker starts. Clark put in a hell of a shift vs Wigan and Walker has proved himself a capable deputy.

I would suggest that be the case maybe Clarke off the bench again or he may get fully rested for Walker. I don’t think we can afford to rest Cooper or Hill due to Philbin & J.Clarke missing out.

Could be something like:

Ratchford
Charnley
Mamo
King
Lineham
Austin
Williams
Cooper
Walker
Hill
Currie
Hughes
Davies

Bench: Mulhern, Sita, Clarke, Ashton

Ashton straight back in at full back after 4 months out? putting a winger there to replace a natural full back who hasn't done much wrong?

Ratchford
Lineham
King
Mamo
Charnley
Austin
Williams
Hill
Walker
Cooper
Currie
Hughes
Davis

Clark
Mulhern
Akauola
Doro

So I would leave out Thewlis and Ashton.
This will be a real tough game. Leeds are looking good and they have some very decent players.

If its going to be a really tough game why would you rest clark? Hands down the best player on the pitch on Wednesday IMO and probably our most important player. Walker could be on the bench but Clark should start.

I rate Walker very highly. So not a big deal for me who starts or subs.

The Warrington Guardian (2nd only to the Washington Post when it comes to investigative journalism) has quoted Price as confirming that Williams will be in the starting 13. The next question is whether Lineham is fully recovered from his back problem. If so I’d think that we’re looking at;

Ratchford
Lineham
King
Mamo
Charnley
Austin
Williams
Hill
D Clark
Cooper
Currie
Hughes
Davis

Mulhern
Akauola

Then probably Walker and A.N. Other

So no place for Ratchford, Widdop in the starting 13 despite being injured and not in the 21 man squad and Austin playing at both Halfback and Loose Forward simultaneously. Leeds certainly won't be expecting that.

Yes but you know Price likes to play tricks with his team announcements. You never quite know who is likely to take the field and what position.
