That's dancing in the dark. Any good championship props are going to want more than a loan spell and Saints are going to want a prop who would be decent for a few years not just a stop gap for the last couple of months, who is then stuck on the books not getting a game for the next 2 or 3 years.

The good props, unless Saints offer serious money will be involved in the Championship playoffs so unlikely to be loaned out. We have what we have and need to make the best use of it.

With Flannel back, why not put Soliola at loose if it has to be a big guy, with FLannel and Wilkin covering 2nd row, and megennis on the bench with (a another back) and LMS and CLough.

We're rumoured to be in for this Hill guy from Leigh anyway, so why not pay a nominal fee (Breakfast at Le Brunch for the first team plus a grand) and sign him now?

I agree, Clough being back buys us a lot of miuntes work and LMS will be a welcome return. I just don't see the point of putting a knakered full back in the back row.

Is Leon back for this weekend!? No way!? If so, maybe he could have a run out on the wing if the Mako moves infield?

We've been rumoured from the fans but not heard anything from the club about it.

With Leigh going so well, his game time maybe worth more to them than any nominal fee (if we are really after him)
If Leigh were going to sell then when they lost their money backers would have been the optimal time.

Based on what we've seen this season it isn't much of a loss for us. He's been a complete write off this year and him being ruled out could be a blessing as he will recover around the end of the season and he can have an off season to get himself fit and ready for next season.

Clough, Shenton and LMS returning leaves us with just 4 players missing - two who won't return and two who have barely featured this year anyway.

Wellens, Makinson, Shenton, Meli, Foster, Gaskell, Lomax, Graham, Roby, Puletua, Wilkin, Soliola, Flannery. SUBS: LMS, Moore, Clough and Eastmond.

That's about as good as our team will be all year.

You could say the same for Flannery in his 2nd season.
