Game no.5, the decider, 2 apiece but we all know Rovers won the one that mattered so far.
Can't see there being any changes to the squad bare a miracle recovery from Havard and even then I'd be loathe to risk him with a dodgy hamstring.
Personally I think Peet needs to show a bit more faith in Mago and Hill in a big game, minimal minutes just heaps pressure on Ellis and Dupree.
1-7 picks itself and the long range weather forecast looks very good from Thursday, and thankfully we don't need to worry about what Monday afternoon might bring.
Can't wait :)

Nsemba being picked today seems to indicate Isa will be picked in his place. Tough call - I can see both sides of it. KPP will be used as a front rower when Isa comes on you'd assume.

I'm hoping that we can bring in Havard for one of the bench props.

Surely Peet won't make that mistake again? I would stick with last week's team. Bringing Isa and Havard in would be a huge risk.

Isa for Nsemba seems a really negative move, no match fitness, he lasted 5 mins in his last comeback, please no.

We’ll see how it plays out. It might be a case of getting minutes in to Nsemba’s legs because they feel he needs that. They did take him off around the hour mark iirc.

I go back to a comment I made about Peet and Harvie Hill before the Leigh game, when discussing who from Hill or Shorrocks should play. If Peet doesn’t trust a Hill or Nsemba enough to give them minutes when the crunch comes in a big game, he should go with the more experienced player because leaving a guy on the bench for 80 minutes is definitely not the way to go.

I’m not so sure, couple of handbags thrown today, fully expect Kaide Ellis to get banned for that.

Wasn't that v HKR in the semi final? Isa played really well before coming off at half-time with a different injury.
