I want to target 10th after the 2 Hull games.
Warrington aren't going to keep winning. They have quite a hard run in.

Technically 8th is mathematically possible!!

Not as daft as it sounds really!
Kruise Leeming said on the SL show Trinity would have beaten any SL side with that performance against Wigan - so we know they CAN play a bit - the key word though is consistency. It depends on how much they want it but they are capable.

I think right now is a good time to be playing against both Hull sides, and are both there for the taking.

Also, I wouldn’t be surprised, if Saints or Huddersfield rest a few, if their positions are confirmed before we play them. Could we win all 4. That would be some momentum to end the season.

Agreed, it would be nice to start planning next season, regarding signings. Who knows, maybe we already have our eye on some

Actually just to correct myself, 8th isn't mathematically possible as the 2 Hull teams play each other.
9th will be OK though.

I'm wondering what the squad will be for this.
With Tanginoa out and possibly Shaul not allowed to play, it hits us in the weakest areas.

If Shaul doesn't play, then Gaskell will have to go back to 1. That leaves a centre free. I assume we'll bring Croft back in and move Hall back to left. That leaves the right weaker again, just through inexperience.
But add Tanginoa to that too and we have a hole at right SR, which hasn't got a natural replacement without Pitts.
So we could put Crowther there, or a young lad in (I'm not sure who is playing there in the reserves or Academy who could step up. But either way we end up with an inexperienced SR and centre on the right.
We could easily end up leaking tries through there again.

Why not Jowitt at Full Back, is he still on the injury list?

Re: Hull on Friday : Wed Aug 17, 2022 9:27 am  

Our twitter today has pictures which show both Reece and Max training, so quite possible both are fit to play.

Re: Hull on Friday : Wed Aug 17, 2022 9:38 am  

Go with the strogest team possible - we'll have a six day turnaround before KR and with them playing saints and also down on numbers.

A post with sense .Let's not carried away ,we have played all of the season with out our first 17 Last week we had one of the youngest teams on the pitch for years .We seemed to have got something like a three-quarter line again . We are still under strength .Just wish fans would stop getting carrid away ,We are not safe yet and we shall have to give 100% in every game to survive
