Ellis on the bench if fit

I wouldn't have Johnstone on the bench either. Too much of a luxury when the bench is weak.

Wow that ban is harsh! Ref saw it, penalised it, and now the disciplinary deem it to be worth 3 red cards!

No way that Swift retains his place, Faraimo back in

Think people are being a bit harsh on swift, first game for a long time, made good meters, solid in defence and no errors.

Playing against his old team aswell, deserves another game

Not for me. No leg drive at all from him. No metres after contact. Faraimo offers more for me

Got to agree, and if any team know how to play to Swift's weaknesses, it'll be saints.

I have to admit. I wanted swift in ahead of Faraimo but i was very underwhelmed by his display. I'm sure he will get better but for saints i would revert back.

3 match ban for that hit is diabolical and i doubt we will see any consistency.

The first 13 is very strong though. Better than their 13 on paper.

It certainly is a fearsome looking XIII, really fancy Hull to do very well this year.

I expect we'll have at least Knowles back. If we can add another couple of bodies to that it should be a great game.

Shame not to see both teams at full strength as would be a heck of a sight.

I'm assuming that you will have key players missing when I say our 13 looks better. Not sure I would be so confident if everyone was fit.

Should be a cracking game this.
