RD 6 | St Helens v Leeds Rhinos : Mon Mar 12, 2018 4:34 pm  

The toughest game of the season yet against probably the favourites to win the league at this time. Hopefully everyone is fit after thursdays game as Garbutt took a knock. I reckon that Walker will return at FB and Dwyer back to the bench. Oledzki has two cracking games in a row for Featherstone and deserves a call up over Walters.

Walker / Golding
Briscoe Watkins Sutcliffe / Handley Hall
Moon Myler
Garbutt Parcell Singleton
Ablett JJB
Delaney

Dwyer Mullally Ormondroyd Oledzki.

Did you mean Oledzki had 2 cracking games for Fev?
And my understanding is that Walker only gets in if Golding is injured or has a bad game.
Unless of course McDermott is rotating them.

Not known for voluntarily rotating plays is our coach, better to flog them until they can't stand xD.

How long are ward,cuthbo and Ferres out ?

Ormondroyd's gf gave birth over the weekend so he didn't play for Fev.

Walmsley may be missing for them. Didn't look too clever when he went off the other night and supposedly had scans today on his neck and shoulder.

Yes I meant Oledzki, apologies.

Really tough test this especially with Ward & Cuthbo missing.
For me if Walker isn't starting then dont pick him we need a 4 man bench we're going to use.

If Oledszki is fit enough I'd definitely put him on the bench instead of Walters or Ormondroyd. If Dwyer is fit again then I'd put him on the bench ahead of Walker, there's no way Golding should be dropped after his last 2 performances.

I think Saints will have too much for us though. I think they'll win by 10.

Will be interesting to see how Saints perform. Has been said on the VT and some other boards that they've mostly had a comfortable fixture list so far. Salford, Hudds and Catalans are all teams fighting to avoid bottom 4. Warrington look quite average after the uncertainty of how much they'd improve in the preseason. Cas on paper should've been a tough test and whilst Saints played well Cas were shocking and not at the races at all and would've probably lost to any team that night on that showing.

Think it might be bigger than that. But probably the scoreline will be flattered in the last 20 minutes. Last two games our use of substitutes has been really poor. It caught us out at Widnes and another couple of minutes would have caught us out again on Friday. Think we can make a game of it for 60 minutes, and if we take our chances, who knows we might build a lead, but that last 20 minutes I just can't see anything other than Saints putting us to the sword, based on how we have used the players last two games.
