No Gardner, Lomax, Wheeler, Soliola, Dean, Eastmond, Wilkin, Faasavalu.

Not enough size or experience, the injuries are becoming a little farcical.

6 Pryce
7 Moore
8 Graham
9 Cunningham
10 Hargreaves

Just realised Saints have only named 18 names in the 19 man squad.

You might just edge it in the pack but if that's the back line we'll be facing then I ain't to worried.

How often's Armstrong played centre? I personally though I'd see Flannery there.

Plays there all the time in the reserves.

I think our chance in this game is to dominate up front which is why I'd have Flannery in the pack and hope Armstrong can cope out wide - he is solid enough and is on fire in the reserves.

Armstrong is naturally a Centre... with Wigans light pack I'd shove Flanno up top

Wellens
Foster
Gidley
Armstrong
Meli
Pryce
Moore
Graham
Cunningham
Hargreaves
Clough
Flannery
Puletua

Ashurst
Roby
Fozzard
Dixon

With Puletua also doubling up as another Prop during substitutions

If it were wet conditions on Sunday then I'd feel more inclined to agree that your pack holds the key to victory. But with what look like dry conditions ahead with a fast dry track I don't feel the difference in the packs will have to much of an influence. I'm hoping that our back line we'll hold the key to victory.

You're kidding yourselves if you don't think Eastmond will play.
