From that selection I'd go with:-



1. Hardaker

2. Briscoe

3. Watkins

4. Moon

5. Handley



6. McGuire

7. Sutcliffe



8. Galloway

9. Falloon

10. Cuthbertson

11. Delaney

12. Ablett

13. Jones-Buchanan



14. Burrow

15. Garbutt

16. Mullally

17. Walters

The only good thing about releasing Mcshane is we got Paul Aiton coming to us and let's be fair Aiton had a slow start at leeds then was out for 3 months with an illness then he was best player we had until got injured but Mcshane I think is a better hooker than we have now?

From the sound of Brian Mac's press conference today, no Briscoe tomorrow so I presume Watkins to the wing and Keinhorst/Ablett to centre.

If that`s the case then I would put Keinhorst at centre and leave Ablett in the pack to beef it up.

On Singleton maybe his confidence has taken a nosedive after getting dropped/rested recently?

Or maybe he's going all out and playing Sutcliffe at fullback with Hardaker on the wing?

But don't be surprised if Moon doesnt play been ill all week

Any word on who out the injury returnees is more certain to be involved..?



I am travelling down from Glasgow for the game; first time back since the GF. Everytime I have seen them online / on TV since they have lost - am convinced it is because they are missing me not being in the usual SS spot. So I fully expect a good performance tonight and will take at least some credit for it..!



Can't wait to be around normal people again, who actually know what rugby league is..!

From that press conference it sounds like (injury wise) things are even worse than we realise. All the players coming back are coming back early before they're fully ready. Ie "Briscoe came back early, he needs a rest". But he also said other players playing are carrying injuries but implying they can't take a few weeks off to recover as we're struggling to field a team.



He said they aren't able to run through plays in training, I think he said perticularly deffensive structures cos everybody's in the medic room. Those playing at the weekend aren't fit enough to train well.



I don't get the impression he was just making excuses either. He said we won't be fielding our first 17 for over another month.



We need to find a way to win with what we have. Like what saints did a couple years ago.

Why don't we give one or two of the young kids a chance then?

I think all the kids who are considered. ready, except Baldwinson, have played this year. It'll do nobody any good to throw under prepared and not physically ready kids into the team.

Let's play with unfit injured players then.

Hull KR put up a very good performance the other night at Wigan with many youngsters. How do you consider someone ready?

I can't buy into this every other team has had injuries but seem to put in some reasonable performance even if they lose . Obviously Mcdermotts feeling the pressure and the recent excuses about the referee then this doesn't cut the mustard with me.
