Same squad as last week other than Sinfield replacing ECW who has a shoulder injury.
Seems every time ECW looks like getting a game he injures himself.
Are we thinking same team as last week?

I'd go with the same team. Need to get between the ears right from the off on Thursday. If it takes another half time spray then the game will be already lost. 

ECW looks like he needs to be released at some point.. constantly injured. Tough game this one, we will do well if we win this given the pack injuries.. not confident. 

Given the absence of Oledzki, Holroyd and Gannon, the closeness of the previous two home games, plus the fact that it's away in front of a sold out and hostile crowd - I think Wakey start favourites. That said, if we want to be a top four team (or better) it's a game we need to find a way to win.

Yep, if we have aspirations of troubling other teams in the post season then these are the kind of games we need to be winning.


In fact, the circumstances around this game should give it a play off type feel. 


I really don't want us getting into Burgess-esque excuses if we don't. 

Usual from a Powell-led side I imagine. Quick PTB , looking for metres around the ruck or pushing it wide at speed. We need O'connor and Ackers to keep it tight - and Hall to defend his touch line. He's toast if he doesn't. Pack needs to match theirs but fairly confident we can win this.
