So what we thinking? A few injuries creeping back in against a Salford who seem to be finding their feet more with each game. Sadly looking like another defeat is on the cards

realistically its hard to see how we win. think we just have to go into it with same same vigour as recent performances and look to make it a close, competitive game. no further injuries would also be a huge bonus

could be a battering. Can't see us getting anything out of the next few games other than more injuries

Things were looking up then bang 3 injuries. Just the luck of this season. Would of been nice to see the club replace Pele with the two week break we've just had in time for the Salford game. Give us a bit more strike

Ashworth is a big loss for us along with Sao, particularly with the loan and subsequent release of Pele as we are very much lightweight once again in the middle.
Scott is a loss but not one that leaves as big a hole as Ashworth & Sao, fingers crossed Cartwright will be fit enough to make his debut.
Hopefully the club and coaching staff see this as an opportunity to give the likes of Gardiner, Laidlaw, Armstrong and Jebson etc to grasp.

Can't quite the above team. However hearing Balmforth won't be in the 17. Replaced by Houghton

I'd probably go with that, though would prefer to put Jebson or Armstrong in the 17 ahead of Okunbor to be totally honest.

Would continue with Smith and Balmforth at hooker, as don't think either should be dropped for Danny just to come straight back in without having a run out in the reserves and if he was to come in it shouldn't be at the expense of Balmforth.

Some tough decisions to make. Do Walker and Houghton come back in? Does Litten get a chance at full back after impressing at the weekend? Does Ockunbor get a chance to redeem himself?

Hopefully Cartwright is good to go. Need his size with losing Ashworth and Sao.
