be interesting what team we have out on fri? looks as though tuime and Kelly got through ok, I really like miloudi and although logan had a difficult match he never stopped running hard, all our forwards derserve a massive pat on the back, hopefully westy back and maybe time to give turgut another crack, not wishing to knock the kid but lane doesn't cut it for me atm, tries hard but doesn't look big enough, defo give litten a start

Not sure what's gone on with Turgut. Seems out of favour.

Salford on Friday so Danny H won't be available due to his HIA. A great chance for Jez Litton to perform. We can put the cup behind us now and concentrate on cementing our top 8 position. Cas have to go to Wire so a chance for us to regain 4th place if we and Wire do the business.

As long as we do the business ourselves that game is win win. We either go ahead of Cas of we go within 2 of Wire again. Wigan also have a tough trip to Wakefield after a rough couple of weeks. Things could get interesting.

My team as long as no one else pulls out would be:

Shaul
Faraimo
Scott
Tuimavave
Miloudi
Kelly
Connor
Paea
Litten
Taylor
Minichiello
Downs
Green

Fash
Masi
Washbrook
Lane

I just think Scott has more about him than Logan, and Downs did well in his last game v Widnes. I would like to see him have another chance.

not a bad team, but downs imo like lane isn't big enough at this level, never seen either of them bend the line, both put the effort in, I would try turgut, toss up between scott and logan,

Think Lane will play
Agree i would give Turgut a chance in the next couple of games but for me if he makes no impact knowing he has gone down the pecking order and i think he is out of contract end of the season then he should be released.
Right centre is a problem.Logan tried hard but his defence was very poor.
As you say toss up between the two unless Harris is recalled and Connor moved back to right centre

forgot about harris, that might be a good call

Obviously disappointed the cup run is over, but what a set of memories it gave us! Despite the loss today, our players ran their blood to water for their teammates & club, I’m proud of em.

If we can keep that attitude & get some more bodies back, we can do some real damage at the business end if the season.

You should be concentrating on beating Salford we need a favour we're shooting for 10th spot

No one gives FC a chance today. Being the eternal optimist that I am, I like those odds. The Cup has been special, the last 2 seasons, pulling of some excellent results. I think Lee Radford can do it again, obviously up against it with injuries but Saints haven’t been tested with the type of defence FC are capable of, on they’re day, plus we can score tries. Pressure them and frustration will set in because so much is expected of them this season. Just my opinion, obviously.

God I hate being nearly right every time

Bookies have the odds against you, and Radford has said we'll struggle physically on Friday, but you never know.

Those odds must be from earlier in the season. There is no way you would get 5/1 for Widnes now.
