I hope this isn;t true about pickersgill would be a blow if it is

Deano's only just got rid of the crutches so he's no chance of playing either.

Could probably do with bringing in another prop, even if its just a short term loan. We can probably discount Picks until the end of the season now as there's no way they will rush him back after neck surgery. We're also probably going to have to do without Haggerty for a few games after Thursday so leaves us down to the bare bones, not to mention a very inexperienced front row. Gannon, Kav, Houghton, Davies - what happens if one of them drop out? Doran would probably have to fill in, unless they drop Mullally or Wood-Hulme in at the deep end.
