Sironen probably missing

Game week then. Will Saints be missing Sironen and Walmsley?

Not sure how we line up, we're scraping the barrel with the recent suspensions and player exits.

If Houghton is back I think we need Balmforth or Hodgson on the bench. Think Walker could be back too

Walker/Moy/Litten
Martin
Sutcliffe
Mcintosh
Tindall

Smith
Charles

Ese'ese
Houghton
Pele
Lane
Scott
Cator

Gardiner
Laidlaw
Okunbor
Balmforth

Wonder if Latrell and Cody Walker will sign in time to make their debuts?

Houghton going to be playing jabbed up I hear

I know I sound like a broken record, but will be really interesting to see if Balmforth, at last makes the squad, different eyes to Smith, Cummins will know he better than anyone.

Wouldn't surprise me if Hodgson makes the squad over Balmforth

and for 80 minutes so nothing new there then

Are you going? I can arrange it for you, the boys need our support.

Certainly not expecting a victory this week. More interested in seeing who is selected by Grix and how the overall performance and structure is from the team. Might give us an indication of who was out of favour, what kind of support Smith had in the dressing room etc. I'm hoping for some kind of upturn even if it's miniscule.

Yeah, you can't knock the effort that lad puts in when he pulls on our jersey. One of our clubs all time greats. And our only man of steel winner.
