Same as above, Nsemba to take a spot on the bench alongside Dupree, Mago and Leeming. I'm happy that Isa can start the game and do 50/60 minutes or so but the 80 minutes seems a push for him at the minute. It's not that he looks shattered or anything but it feels like he's having to manage his energy to let him get through the game.

In an ideal world this would be the type of game that you would take Mago out of in place of Cooper or Havard. He's a great asset for us and very effective in lower intensity games but has tended to struggle with the pace of the derby in previous years.
Saints have the edge when it comes to the back row.
I looking forward to Walters taking the starting spot.
Isa offers nothing with the ball, and is much smaller than all the options Saints have.
I’m a little concerned about Nsembas defence in a big intense game like this.
I’d probably throw Nsemba on the bench so we’re have a some options if a back gets injured. I’ve been really impressed with Hill though.
RICHARDS IS SUPERMAN!!!!

As usual after reading the respective threads I appear to be somewhat on my own in thinking this but I’m pretty confident in the win.
Whilst I accept we have not been playing well we have still been winning without really getting out of third gear.
We will have to on Friday if we are to win but I just think since the Penrith game we have been looking to get through the games unscathed and then build towards another big performance.
I’m expecting a real improvement on Friday from what we have seen since Penrith and us to be more adventurous with the ball, I’ve a feeling we have been deliberately playing with our cards close to our chest and will spring a few surprises and new plays.
Time will tell I guess.
As others have said team pretty much picks itself and I too would go with Nsemba off the bench.

I think we will struggle with this one
We havent been our best for the last few weeks (WCC hangover) but if Saints have finally overcome their jetlag from last years trip to Aus then we are in trouble
