Two potential big scalps coming up but can see Saints rallying after a tough loss.

We have a big opportunity to win the next 2 games. Wigan and especially saints look busted

On Wigan, our new full back looks wasted on the wing.

yes,but he is not fast enough for our team

Exactly. Risk and reward. It's a gamble but certain coaches have nothing to lose if they are leaving at the end of the season. Or maybe even before.

we need to be quick out the blocks v saints, hopefully they will have cup hangover will Lomax being rested for this one? Saints know come finals time, they will be up there, like us they seem to be short on halves atm

Let's not get too excited. When was the last time we beat Saints? 2017?

They pushed a strong Wigan team all the way. Even without Dodd and Lomax they're still the bench mark team. We'll have to give an 8/9 out of 10 performance, and have some luck to get something

Roby is still utter class. All eyes on the league now for them, and home advantage. Seems like we"ll have a few back - Gale, Grub. swift, Vulikijapani - so that might help (or not - seem to have played better with makeshift halfback pairings). Any news on McNamara?

Think it was a week by week thing with McNamara. Its just a waiting game till his back settles down

I'd have all of those returning in the team apart from Reynolds, who looks unfit and cannot tackle, which against Saints would be suicidal with their intensity and backing up. Vulikijapani looked very good during his recent stints at centre and his defensive play has improved greatly this season.
