half backs Williams and currie
forwards bullock mikalele
hooker walker
second row Nicholson Harrison
loose forward casino

would be my starting 17 bit left field but I feel if we are to stand a chance then we have to go with grinding out a close win with defence key if we win 10-4 we still won the game and progressed


Interesting team selection.

If you do the same thing and keep getting the same result then we already know what is going to happen so if Chambers does make some bold calls then I think it's a no lose situation for him. Not necessarily to the half back combination but I would like to see some eyebrow raising selections. But where the "plan" shows itself in the interchanges. Thewlis for Harrison move dufty to half back currie to loose or something where we can change things up with an interchange.

I'm not really optimistic at our chances I don't think the squad is fit enough compared to saints to live with the intensity for the full 80min they would need to. Vaughan Harrison and bullock are our forwards that can do good minutes dudson and kasiano cannot really be relied upon for more than 10/15. Vaughan missing too only makes a hard task even harder. And why I do think to win we are going to have to see Something different from the players coaches.

I think we’re in for a really tough ride in the first 20/30 minutes at least. 16 of their 17 face the prospect of retiring a legend if they don’t run through brick walls and tackle for all they're worth. Wellens will have that ringing in their ears on the way onto the pitch, and the crowd will be foaming at the mouth having that force fed into them, as we’re already seeing on Sky Sports etc.

Need to take the crowd out of the game and to hang in there for that first onslaught. I’d be looking to take any points on offer early on and turn the ball over on our terms in the corners, as others have said with Walker kicking from dummy half if needed.

Try and see out the Walmsley spells and when he goes off rotate with Philbin, Kasiano, Bullock and Clark and use those periods to try and dictate the tempo and try and get Williams some space.

When we kick off at what ever stage in the game instead of kicking in the air for a simple dolly catch for who ever bang it low and fast along the floor preferably towards the sticks..a ball can do funny things..also anyone who remembers the class of 86 premiership winning side that walloped Wigan away in the end of season semi..Paul bishop kicked 5 drop goals..let's bore everyone to death drop goal mania

I don't think so and would suggest that his non-selection on this board is a reflection of collective disappointment with his efforts. If selected he does have a point to prove IMO to keep Hayes waiting next year

Also, was he in the Catalans team (together with Kasiano and Dudson) that came back v Saints at Magic weekend in 21?

Yes, he was. What a game that was! Tries by Dudson and Kasiano in the 79th and 80th minutes to level it, then a golden point DG from James Maloney.

I'd left with 5mins to go to beat the rush getting tucked into a Chinese meal when a dozen dejected Saints fans came in and sat next to us....we had a bit of fun once we heard the score as you'd imagine.

I'd love the same tomorrow NTW

Don't make things easy for Saints by giving away stupid penalties.
