That's going to hurt us. He is such a big part of our forward dominance, the others are really going to have to step up.

That team means we will be playing a back on the bench. There are only enough forwards to play 6 in the pack and 3 on the bench including a hooker.
Possibly Arundal having a stint in the second row. Or Hampshire in there to change up the half backs.

Unless he goes with Randell at loose?

Wonder whats wrong with big Dave?

To say they apparently had all these injuries, they are exactly the same as last week apart from Holmes coming in for Hitchcox...

On the other hand we are missing our captain and our best forward, should even us up a bit

Hopefully the team that we have put can do a job on them.

Shenton will return too after missing last week.

Still missing Eden, Wardle, Sene-Lefao (and technically Watts though he's yet to play a game for us).

Missing Watts

Come on Fully !

Sene-Lefao and Wardle are quality players though so definitely a miss for you guys. Is Minikin likely to play? He has been weak under the high ball the last few times we have played you, also hoping that we play to your weakness and pepper Roberts with high bombs, he looked clueless at times against Leeds.

What's up with Fifita?

I did put it in brackets to be fair

Minikin will play - back to the wing if Shenton and Webster are fit. He hasn't named a back-up winger so I'd assume so. Don't think Roberts dropped a catch v Leeds.

Didn`t he let a ball bounce directly in front of him, then ran around like a headless chicken trying to gather it, might be completely making it up

It would be nice if it was a bit of gamesmanship and he could make the matchday 17


He was a huge miss against Wire and Cas are a better side than Warrington.

Let's get plenty down to BV and at least out sing (shout) Cas.

Come on Trin !

That`s what they did last year against Cas at home, he wasn`t in the 19 and played. I was hoping for the same tbh.. Here`s hoping!!

Would I be daft in stating I'm actually quite speculative of Thursday?
