If the new injury to Gale is genuine, and I realise there’s more chance of me growing a third bollock by 14:30 on Saturday, wouldn’t it be funny if Leeds did win...

the defeat of widnes years ago and cas in webb's time stand out for me with the absence's on those days ,

We’ve had some backs against the wall victories over the years, but I think the nature of the opposition on Saturday will make a decisive difference. Fingers crossed but more in hope than expectation.

We just need to pick the best side we can and play the best we can. We might get beaten by a cricket score but we should aim to at least compete.

We still have good players and we could pick a physically big side which will give Saints something to think about down the middle, maybe keep some possession off them.

We’re going to get embarrassed if we just try to defend out of this hole: we will lose the energy battle and then it will be hot knife through butter.

We have no halves, fist choice centres, full back and one fit decent winger.
We will get annihilated.....

Nearly every player in that Saints backline is an international!

No eastmond named and gale still in the team? Is the injury talk just a decoy? anyone got actual info because if he is injured then we just look like clowns by naming him and losing a sub bringing in eastmond (if we even do that)
