Well after a few shock results at the weekend the top 5/6 is well and truly open. A win at Huddersfield would IMO put us in a good position. So wonder what team we will have out? Any back?

Wynne will be back, so I'd put him on the bench instead of Barron or maybe the wing instead of Simm.



Lovodua to replace Johnstone.



Hopefully Satae back too



Walker

Simm

Mitch

Connor

Mcintosh

Smith

Gale

Taylor

Houghton

Evans

Lane

Longstaff

Fash



Brown

Satae

Lovodua

Wynne

Looks a decent enough team to at least give Huddersfield a game. Should have a bit of confidence after the result in Toulouse as well.

Houghton charged with a Grade A Dangerous Contact but escapes a ban. No other disclipninary issues for us.



Olly Russell will miss out for Huddersfield following a one match suspension for tripping.

We are down to our last 19 players atm. We gain Leroy back but lose Russell which means yet another switch in the halves- but it’s something we have been used to this year as we can’t seem to play the same spine for longer than two weeks in a row!

Our forwards are solid and going well. That’s without Chris hill and ikahihifo available. Hilly may just might make it this week as I know he was due back around this time. It’s our backs where we have been weak- we are missing Jerry and especially leutele.

Which players are definitely out Jools?

Stick with same team who did well



Wynne has been abject lately why should he walk back in ?

Would of loved smith or lovodua to have a go at 9

Huddersfield are a class above, Wynne has had a decent season, except for the Cas game where he lost his cool.



Would you not bring back Satae and Lovodua then, if sticking with the same side?

Definitely out is cogger, leutele, mcgilvary, ikahihifo



Hill, lolohea and Lawrence could be back. I think with Russell banned lolohea will be needed. Otherwise pryce and fages will play in the halves and golding at fullback but that leaves us lacking in attacking flair, and we would have to play Louis senior on the wing who hasn’t played a game since just after the semi final.

Will the Connor centre/full back tactic work 2 games in a row?



We've got genuine options in the spine for what feels like the first time this season.

Connor at Loose Centre and Wynne for Simm for me.



Ma'u might be back so our team is pretty decent on paper. That won't stop us comceing 50 unanswered points in 20 minutes though.
