RD 7 | Leeds Rhinos v Castleford Tigers : Sun Mar 18, 2018 2:33 pm  

Tough game v Castleford coming up. McD says nobody to return to the squad and it’s unlikely that Watkins & Golding will play after the head knocks they received. I’m hopeful of Watkins returning.

Walker
Briscoe/Newman Watkins/Briscoe Handley Hall
Moon Myler
Mullally Parcell Singleton
JJB Ablett
Delaney

Dwyer Oledzki Smith Walters/Ormondroyd

There's not exactly many options, is there? Cas getting a week off as well will probably furst stack the odds in their favour. I think the'll be pretty close to full strength too.

Cas' lack of games adds a factor. By Friday they'll have only played 1 game in 27 days and 2 in the last 40 days. Could be a fine line between being fresh and being undercooked especially this early in the season.

Watts still suspended from his head butt whilst at Hull. Oliver Holmes was meant to serve a 1 match ban vs Wigan so guess he now misses Friday instead?

Tough one again. All you can ask for is the same effort shown on Friday. would be nice to see us get close to Cas for once in regular season games after plenty of white flag waving efforts over the last couple of years.

Correct he misses Friday instead.

No Holmes Watts Eden Wardle (shenton wouldn't have played today) so we won't be at full strength but I appreciate it's probably only half as many missing as you lot. Hopefully it will be a decent entertaining game as there hasn't been many quality games served up so far. The putrid weather and heavy pitches haven't helped like.

CAS can't manage to get a huge fixture with Wigan on but 6 mile down the road at Fev they manage to host York v swinton.

You are aware you lot had to call off a game 2 weeks ago ? Also there was probably about 200 people to consider at POR today not 9,000. Cas lock lane played their game yesterday but wakefield didn't. Derby County (an aspiring premiership side had to call a game off today). Fairly easy to understand that loads of sporting events have been hit by the weather this past few weeks.
