Always going bring back the big hitters, just don't get embarrassed and come out the game without injury and potential suspensions

Only able to name 20 inc an Academy player…is he a winger? But at least Bourouh Costello and Escare might get a run out, and Akuola Wells Addy and Lannon will have to step up to the plate. Might as well rest King and Ormondroyd and let the others do the graft for a change. Time to see who’s up for it.

You need to be more than ‘up for it’ against Saints. Need to put out strongest available team

Let’s face it this is effectively a walkover, why put King, Croft, Ackers Ormondroyd etc through more tough work after 3 hard games in a couple of weeks, when we have a bashed up squad already and against a totally refreshed Saints team.
Be easier having a weeks rest and giving them the 21-0 or whatever it is.
RL a joke as usual, no ban for Saints weakened team last week and we can’t now get 21 into the squad. I always look forward to the Saints matches, but I’m not even thinking about it this week. Wonder why people don’t watch😉

42 - 0 if we don't turn up. Goodness knows how many - 0 if we do. Plus more injuries probably. I know what I would prefer. But knowing the RFL, they would deduct points as well.

Nobody knows yet how important points difference will be at the end of the season.

Nobody knows yet how important points difference will be at the end of the season. And Saints seem to have a habit of losing to bottom of table teams at odd times ( ie before cups/ playoffs), plus loop fixtures anyone ending up on equal points and bottom can feel hard done by. The integrity of Super League is shot. Loop fixtures should be scrapped, but still leaves magic as odd game, so should teams tying in bottom place have playoff, or decided by results between those teams? Off course I'm thinking about Leeds v Toulouse, as Leeds getting relegated is unthinkable

How about 14 teams in SL and a separate French SL Then we can have Bradford York Featherstone and Newcastle in SL and life would be bliss😉
Sadly it’s becoming the same same same old shambles; play lots of games, doesn’t matter when, doesn’t matter about the effect in players, put out what team you want, one of the big four wins the Cup and League, Warrington nearly made it, Leeds stay up and let’s get rid of Salford

Watching a bit of the NRL and it’s quite amazing how th3 top sides can’t close the 10m gap as fast as Saints, but they might be able to close a 7m gap.

Bourouh and Johnson starting and Akuola on the bench, assuming he’ll do his 5 mins then run out of puff
Lannon loose forward, probably better in the middle
