19 Man Squad Announced for Catalans, Pryce returns. : Wed Jul 13, 2011 1:01 pm  

The injury fears that stemmed from last weeks match against Wakefield appear to have blown over as most of the doubtful players have made the 19 man squad. This is also added to by the huge boost of having Leon Pryce back to fitness and in contention for a spot in the 17. Meli and Wilkin were both reported to have slight injuries after last weekend's encounter but have made it through squad selection. LMS is also named but is listed as doubtful. Paul Clough and Paul Wellens join Ade Gardner, Josh Perry and Gary Wheeler on the sidelines. Shaun Magennis and Matty Ashurst are named in the squad to replace the injured Paul Clough and in favour of Tom Armstrong. 3. Michael Shenton, 4. Sia Soliola, 5. Francis Meli, 6. Leon Pryce, 7. Kyle Eastmond, 9. James Roby, 10. James Graham, 11. Tony Puletua, 12. Jon Wilkin, 13. Chris Flannery, 14. Scott Moore, 15. Louie McCarthy-Scarsbrook, 18. Matty Ashurst, 19. Andrew Dixon, 20. Jonny Lomax, 21. Shaun Magennis, 22. Jamie Foster, 25. Lee Gaskell, 28. Thomas Makinson. Official team selection can be found here. I'll go: 7. Kyle Eastmond 28. Thomas Makinson 3. Michael Shenton 5. Francis Meli 22. Jamie Foster 25. Lee Gaskell 20. Jonny Lomax 10. James Graham 9. James Roby 15. LMS 4. Sia Soliola 12. Jon Wilkin 11. Tony Puletua 14. Scott Moore 12. Chris Flannery 21. Shaun Magennis 6. Leon Pryce Could have some problems if LMS can't play, TP to prop with Flannery into second row and Wilkin to loose. That would mean Ashurst / Dixon in on the bench and only 2 props in the 17. Catalans will choose from the following, missing key man Scott Dureau. 1. Clint Greenshields, 2. Damien Blanche, 9. Ian Henderson, 10. Remi Casty, 11. Steve Menzies, 12. Sebastien Raguin, 13. Gregory Mounis, 15. Jean-Phillipe Baile, 17. Cyril Gossard, 18. Daryl Millard, 19. Frederic Vaccari, 20. Michael Simon, 22. Jamel Fakir, 23. Lopini Paea, 24. Jason Baitieri, 25. Vincent Duport, 26. Eloi Pelissier, 29. Remy Marginet, 30. Thibaut Ancely.

I feel a £1 coming on. What to spend it on?

Glad to see Leon back in contention... lets hope he stays injury free for the rest of 2011 and gives us some gusto going forward... Can we win a trophy now we have one of the best strike players in the league back? who knows?

Re: 19 Man Squad Announced for Catalans, Pryce returns. : Wed Jul 13, 2011 2:32 pm  

Catalans missing their three players who can play half back, Dureau, Bosc & Farrar. They are also without Ferriol who's banned as well as Sa and Stacul.
Saints win by 14.
