This is going to be another tough one with the limited recovery time. At least we're at home and won't have to contend with the slope.

Don't like making changes to a winning side, but I think last night will have taken a lot out of us with the conditions. Throw in Batley having extended time off compared to us, I'd freshen things up. Butler, Johnson, Roby (not sure when his hearing is for his alleged fish hook) to come in. A lot will depend on who else is fit.

Thought Roby got a one match ban so is back for the Batley game if selected.

That was for a separate incident. He will have a tribunal for his alleged fish hook. If found guilty could be looking at 8 weeks

Great :roll:

At least with Walker due back soon and Jowitt fit again we can move Holmes into the halves and put Lilley in at hooker. Watching last night we'd benefit greatly from having Holmes's pace in midfield, sometimes Lilley is too slow, he's much more effective jumping out of dummy half.

Think if the weather doesn't get wetter with a couple of changes in the team for a few fresh legs and a big, vocal crowd we may sneak a result.

We just need to keep a grown up head on the pitch and I don't think they'll let us down too badly

Not seen anything about Robys tribunal (Toulouse's Belmas only had his last week for his incident against us) so looks like Roby free to play.

I like Roby and I like hookers to have a bit of mongrel in them but do we think he could be a bit of a liability?

Still think Lilley would be better there. Jowitt did alright at dummy half and offers a bit of cover across the field so hope he figures in the 17.

Depending on injuries, can see Jowitt playing centre/wing.

Playing Roby is a no brainer. I still think Batley will still make the play-offs. They're always tough to beat. You can just see us putting in a sluggish performance after the Fax win. Roby will give us that energy we could do with for this game.
