Moving on from the horror show of the Huddersfield we move onto Leeds. I'd assume Brown will get a ban if so it's a straight swap with Atkin. I think HIA rules mean Greenwood is out as well so a swap with Ormondroyd. Apart from that we definitely need Inu back in there although i can't see who he's going to replace. Williams gives us the good go forward in the first few tackles and Whelham provides our best kick chase and aggression in d. Jones for me is doing better every week so imo him and Lussick can stay. We have Seb and hopefully Dudson back as well.

I think Greenwood can play. If not,I’d play Lannon. I’d also find a place for Flash

If I was going to drop either were winger it would be Sio. Not sure he deserved it but Williams has been one of our best players so far so has to be in the team. No need to panic, keep tuning. We will miss Brown if he’s banned there will be a lot of pressure on Tui as Atkin isn’t a creative or organisational half from what I’ve seen but if we make a break he’ll be on the shoulder. Having Dudson and Seb back is massive

I think we’ll see:
Evalds Sio Welham Sarge Williams Tui Atkin Moose Jones Dudson (hopefully) Lannon McCarthy (he looked a bit groggy when he went off though) Burke
Pauli Ikahihifo Lussick Yates
Leeds are a bit soft up the middle but look deadly in the backs judging from Friday so we’ll need the pack and defence on top form.

Defence on right edge needs strengthening against Hurrell who will walk through Welham`s often turnstile offering. We need his kicking too.
More creativity required hence Flan who unlike Jones can come back after 20 mins.
Our 2nd rowers need to kill the Gale threat of running across the pitch - so one on the left & t`other on the right - set to charge out of the line to counter Gale who is back to his best.

Hope I'm wrong but think this is headed towards a return to the Salford of old where a team gets on a roll and scores a hat full.
As previously mentioned Gayle is key, we need to blitz him at every opportunity.
This is the type of game Brown would have been ideal for as guile is needed and don't think we have that in the team without him.

Almost a year to the day since they smashed us 46-14 at home last season. I can only imagine some of the meltdowns if we get a similar scoreline this weekend.
For the record I thought there was a few positives in the second half vs Hudds and if we get a couple of forwards back I'm quitely optimistic about this one.

Wakefield off the mark now - we could do with a result next week. Week after will be a very big game.

Absolutely dreading this, could be a cricket score and most probably will be.

Ollie Roberts will sign for us on loan 2mora and will be in the squad for Saturday. Great addition I’d like us to make it a more permanent move to be fair

Think we need a reality check. Were gonna struggle to be a top 8 team but I don't think by much. Trust watto and his ability. He knows more about rugby than all of us together. Were three games in and one less win than we thought. Stay positive and believe in the coach and team. Two start props back next week makes a big dif. Also expect flash back to help the playmakers

Properly happy if we do sign Roberts, him, Seb and PP are 3 huge 2nd row options.
