Very light in the forwards. Dudson is in for a long shift.

Yes with all this talk about half backs, our prop shortage has gone largely unnoticed. Going to be tough to dominate up front. I fancy Wigan to win this one.

Any update on Mossop's injury? Looked like a calf or hamstring.

I think we might end up caught a little short upfront for this one.
We could afford to lose Mossop or Walker but both leaves us lacking a bit of size I think.
I wonder if Wakefield would be interested in swapping Pauli back for Sau now they have a few forwards back from injury?

Evalds Olpherts Inu Welham Bibby Lolohea Hastings Dudson Tomkins Lannon Jones McCarthy Flash Lussick, Ben, Burke, Sau Looking forward to it, but Wigan definitely favourites. It'll be another warm day so tests to the limit the theory of fit , lean smaller packs vs bigger units.... Expect Dudson to be well fired up for this after his treatment in the first hit up of the last Wigan game at the AJ Bell. Expect the unexpected …will be interesting to see any potential in the new half back combination. Sau to have a stint at second row  |

No no no more Olpherts please
Start Sau with Sio or Johnson. Inu in the 2nd row

I think with Sio and Greg a possibility we might see Bibby in the second row again. I’m not keen on Inu there just because he’s been so good at centre - if it aint broke.

Evalds Johnson Inu Bibby Sio Lolohea Hastings Dudson Tomkins Lannon Jones Burke McCarthy Subs: Ben Flanagan Welham Lussick Ironic that we swap a prop with Hull KR for 2nd row and then play him at in the front row.
Just goes to show that the roles become increasingly difficult to separate.
Johnson over Olpherts is a must, you can see Williams, Leuluai and Sammut lining him up for target practice as we speak.

I’d be surprised if Sio is fit. As far as I can see we only have 9 fit forwards including hookers so I expect Bibby to move into 2nd row at some point.

Makes it seem ever odder we haven't recalled Adam Lawton from his D/R loan. He looked capable from the little glimpses we've seen and he's got much more game time under his belt by now. |

Fair enough- seems daft not to get him back then even just to spell Dudson for ten minutes in each half. I think RUTB’s team selection looks about right but that pack and bench looks seriously light. |

Hoping for a Lolohea and Hastings masterclass, but I can't see us winning this one unfortunately - as people have said, we're looking a bit light in the forwards. Lolohea might be a bit knackered as well, having just come back from the NZ-Tonga test.
