If we lose, we lose. If we win, then on goes the journey. Pre-lockdown this season was bound for nothing, so appearing in the playoffs, as haphazard as they may be, is still a success. Warrington have held the victory sign over us in recent games but at the moment there is no reason why we can't match them on the night. Let's see what Thursday brings...

Think we must leave Conner at full back where he seems to be more effective at the moment. He could turn into a 6 in the future but certainly has a lot to do to convince the majority of fans. I would put McNamara at 6 with the job of putting Austin under pressure and restricting his kicking game which I think is the only way we can win the game. Macs defence is pretty good and he is quick off the line. We have the forwards and outside backs to get the job done but Sneed needs to up his game considerably which he has done in the past in big games. Hopeful!!!!!!!

Tough team Warrington, but with abit of luck you never know, itl definatley be an arm wrestle, I just think Austin will put them in better field position , as Sneyds been poor, hopefully Connors on fire and isn't side tracked by his ongoing spats with Hill
thats why i would leave jake at FB, let his attacking input be more clinical out wide (extra ball handler) where grubs like hill cant distract his focus

I think against Wigan in the cup, we started incredibly with Brad Fash & Massi up front, don’t think Massi has played since.

What do people think to the use of props? I watched Taylor last game who looked shattered which is understandable after so long out. I think it'd be a lot more effective starting Bowden and Sao, bringing Satae and Taylor off the bench.
I always wonder if we d be better starting Sao and Satae to gain early field position too.

Can never make my mind up lol
That’s because either way you perm those four, you’ve a good chance of it working, Tag should be better for that last outing, and with being omitted from Wanes squad, he’ll just be going for it. In an ideal world I’d have Jones on the bench as well.
