Still a few names in there I’d like to miss out to avoid injury and or suspension but it’s probably the best line up we could hope fo. If all goes to plan in the final hopefully rest a few the game after (Cas away again!) I think one of French or Fields needs to play due to squad coverage. I’d stick Eckersley at FB but not sure who could cover at centre without just shoehorning someone in

I'd go very similar to that lineup but I think Smith will play. Injuries can occur in a range of scenarios but its probably fair to say Smith is a little less at risk as he's rarely tackled more than a handful of times in a game.

I think Forber got a head injury at the weekend so he may have failed his HIA.

One thing I wouldn't want to see happen is Peet get criticised for whatever team he picks on this occasion. There's pros and cons in any of the three options - be it full strength, reserve team or a mix of the two.

Agree completely, it's such a strange fixture at the best of times coming just before playing the same team again at Wembley, and that's before you think about the season that it has been on the disciplinary side. He gets a free pass from me whatever happens.


I really don't know what I'd do selection wise, but I'd probably go more towards changing the whole team rather than play the first team. Definitely in the pack anyway - there's no point having as many options as we do if we're not going to make the most of them for games like this.

I'd go for:

Hampshire
Miski
Keighran
Eckersley
Douglas
French
Smith
Byrne
O'Neill
Cooper
Nsemba
Walters
Ellis


Hill
Eseh
Makin
Forber/Farrimond

I would be more than happy if Matt rested half a team. A win at Wembley has to be the goal.

I trust Peet to make tge right choice. The pack we have we could make up a further competitive side on paper if we choose to rest players. Plus will give fringe players a run out for when we pick up injuries. It always seems like wigan win one loose one when it comes to us playing the same side on the bounce. Plus we play our full side there’s a chance wire just review our game afterwards and look at were to beat us

I think Peet will pick a fairly strong squad, maybe a few changes with players who are nursing niggles. Momentum is key for us and if we were to rest the majority of our wembley side, i think it could come back to haunt us in the final.
