Interesting call in the back row, with Fitzgibbon, Bateman, Nicholson and Currie now all available. Maybe it will be Fitzgibbon on the bench this week, as it's his first game back, but after that, there's a decision to be made. Either way, it doesn't look like Holroyd will get any more game time this season, unless we pick up injuries of course. If that's the case, he can count himself very unlucky, as he was playing really well.

Yes, Fitzgibbon on the bench this week - Burgess hinted as much. I'd assume Bateman to start left back row before moving to 13 to spell Currie?

Longer term, yes I think Holroyd will sit out the rest of the season unless we suffer with injuries / suspensions. Tough on him but then he's played more games this year than he could have dared hope and has areas to work on.

Fully fit Currie starts at 13, Fitzgibbon starts left back row. That leaves one of Bateman or Nicholson to play on the right with the other on the bench in place of Crowther - tough on him as well.

For Leigh I'd expect

Pretty much agree with your line up, tough to choose between Crowther and Philbin. .With Harrison out I’d probably go with Philbin

Leigh squad: Gareth O'Brien, Zak Hardaker, Ricky Leutele, Josh Charnley, Matt Moylan, Lachlan Lam, Tom Amone, Edwin Ipape, Robbie Mulhern, Kai O'Donnell, Jack Hughes, Matt Davis, Frankie Halton, Owen Trout, Ollie Holmes, Keanan Brand, Umyla Hanley, Louis Brogan, Brad Dwyer, Darnell McIntosh, Aaron Pene.

Just the eight ex-Wire players in there, by my reckoning!

Plenty with a point to prove. This could be one of the hardest games of our season & the Wire will need to be at their best. No room for half ars*d efforts this week.

I don’t think we do half arsed efforts any longer. We can play poorly, come up against a good side or have Matty Russell start on the wing….but the effort effort is always there.

Just my opinions unless it's a FACT, in which case it's a fact.

Yeah exactly this, i would like to see Philbin get another Game under his belt. His speed and energy will suit this game i think.

Re: Squad for Leigh : Thu Aug 29, 2024 12:38 pm  
I wouldn’t risk Fitzgibbon at all for this game. The squad has been more than capable of getting the wins in his absence.. Leigh at home are a formidable force and with a play off place still attainable, Lam will have his team firing. Plenty of rough tough rugby by Leigh, might see that dodgy shoulder of Fitzgibbon go again. Save him for the final couple of games running into the play offs..
