Catalans are going to be so difficult to beat. A massive pack and both Myler and Carney fit could spell big trouble for us. However, with the winning run we've been on, and apparently a clean bill of health, that should bring some confidence. The team have talked at times about ratcheting up training intensity for the bigger games (Saints cup game, Warrington away) so I'd expect the same for this week. Big decisions in the halves and specifically what to do with Carlos, but I think we could go:
Shaul Talanoa Fonua Yeaman Michaels Pryce Sneyd Watts Houghton Taylor Minichiello Ellis Manu
Pritchard Bowden Green Washbrook
Weather forecast is cloudy.
Why do we always go for 4 forwards on the bench??
How about replacing one of the props on the bench with Carlos, he can then give say Yeamo and/or Leon a breather.

Pritchard has to start again for me. He is similar to Willie Manu in that I always felt he struggled to get in to a game when coming off the bench and is very capable of playing the 80 if needed.
I'd leave Carlos where he is. It's his position to lose at the minute and I don't feel he deserves to lose it based on the last month. Pryce has been suspect defensively all year and whilst I'm not laying the blame at his door, it's probably no coincidence that in the 20 minutes he was on the pitch against Cas, they breached our right edge twice to go over in the corner. With him on the bench you're essentially covering stand off and centre rotations which is unnecessary, especially against a huge French pack so he misses out of my 17. Washbrook has the utility value already.
Green has played very well recently and gets the nod over Thompson. His contact in defence can be very iffy which would worry me against Taylor, Bousquet, Casty etc.
