RD 7 | Leeds Rhinos v Wigan Warriors : Fri Mar 24, 2017 10:23 pm  

Just putting this in here for next week. Hoping Golding & Keinhorst are not too bad, expecting Delaney to be back in the 19 also. If Golding & Keinhorst are not fit my guess:

Sutcliffe
Briscoe Watkins Moon Hall
McGuire Burrow
Baldwinson Parcell Cuthbertson
Ferres Ablett
JJB

Delaney Garbutt Mullally Ward/Walters/Oledzki

Wigan possibly missing all these players:

‪Tierney, Burgess, Manfredi, Tomkins, Shorrocks, Farrell, Farrell, McIllorum, Bateman, Sutton, Well, Oloughlin, Gelling, Flower.

Ward should be back next week

McDermott confirms Delaney, Ward, Keinhorst & Golding should all be ok for next week.

Interesting score line from Wigan. They were 22-0 down after 60 which suggests they are just struggling at the moment but they then did manage a late rally helped by Hull doing their best to chuck it away it seems.

Much depends on how many guys (if any) they get back for next week, Gelling & Flower joining the list tonight only makes things harder for them. Whilst we were dodgy tonight at times it was away at one of our recently historically trickier away venues. With next week being at Headingley where we've looked confident the last few games I think we'll get the win.

Watching the Hull tries, some of the Wigan tackling was woeful. Can't expect they will be that bad next week though

From the Wigan board...

"Wane saying post-match that Gelling could still play next week, and potentially Gildart, Faz and Sutton returning so some good news at least."

Im still very weary it wasn't that long ago they came to HQ with a full pack missing & put 50 on us plus we had a better team playing then aswell.

You're right to be wary, the more players wigan have missing, the better they seem to play against us.

That said, if - big if - we win, I'm looking at the table wondering which four teams are nailed on to finish above us. I can make a case for two or three but not four.

I wouldn't rule out St Helens from the top four just yet. Wigan, Cas and Hull should make the top four I suppose.
