I understand the context of this but his absence was self-inflicted and he has to understand that we need him on the field not in the stands.

If he hasn’t learned his lesson now he never will.

Dufty
Thewlis
Mata’utia
Ratchford
Ashton
Williams
Drinkwater
Dudson
Walker
Vaughan
Currie
Nicholson
McGuire

Kasiano
Philbin
Thomas
Minikin

Think it’s pretty much that.

Would be tough to take Minikin out after today, best game in a Warrington shirt by a long way. I wouldn’t be surprised to see the starting line up stay the same (Russell for Thewlis aside) and Powell make McGuire stew on the sidelines for 20/30 minutes. McGuire, Kasiano, Dudson and Philbin on the bench, Matatia start 13 but can play across the field to his credit.

McGuire got a knock at training last week and is touch and go for Saturday.

I’m sceptical of us having McGuire.
We are 7/7 and risk losing games through indiscipline.
If we go down to 12, even for just 10 mins v Cats Pies and/or Saints. We’ll get beaten.

We’ve been good so far with our discipline. Keeping 13 on the pitch is a big part of our lob sided scores.

Anyone else a bit disappointed in Dudson yesterday. Seemed to go down way to easy.

Mikaele is going to be a substantial loss imo and Bullock is the closest we're going to get to replacing the forward drive he gained.

I'm hoping though that Mcguire will provide some go forward to compensate and the oncoming Kasiano will boost our chances of dominating the opposition forwards.

An added bonus with McGuire is that he can play hooker and has done a decent job playing there in the past.

This would help Danny Walker to share the role during the game, until Clark`s return from injury.

Not according to him, says he's fully fit and ready to go.
