No, despite being fit and available.

Over the next 2 weeks he'll get a game no doubt. 4 games in just over two weeks means we'll have to rotate players

Reliability is a real issue here . Wheels needs to play 6 on the bounce for Bradford or dual reg before we consider him again I am bemused why posters appear indignant that he is not included. He made his debut in 08 and has barely played 50 games. If your car was that reliable you would have sold it long ago . He doesn't deserve to walk back into team without proving fitness over a sustained period in games. Not disputing his ability.

He also needs to fix his defence which is why he struggles to get a start. He has real attacking threat but too often a turn style in defence

The rest roby comment was from one person. I think he's on is own with that thought. As he is with the wilkin comment.

I think the only thing saints lack is a good replacement hooker for Roby. I think that is very important in the next year or so as far as signings go.

:D from what I gather carney is in contract renegotiations with you guys at the moment - if it's anything like at saints, form will plummet until it's sorted! His strike rate is always gonna be great but I don't think his kick returns have been as good (from what I've seen)

Lomax has been carrying a knock for a while (there's been a few calls for him to be rested/ not aggravate it) the only thing I've read after the weekend is that he has a sore neck!

Mose seems to be in a constant state, but don't let it fool you, he always seems to make his fair share of tackles and carries (which are getting better by the week - he carried the entire Huddersfield front row 5 metres at the weekend at one point in the second half - as I said, I reckon he'll break his duck this week) - his line speed isn't as strong as the rest of the teams (probably due to not having an offseason as such) - but he's no Feka, he actually put a few good hits on burrow!

Carneys announced a 5yr extension today. So that idea goes out of the window

Should be a belting game and a good advert for the league, whatever the score.

Will you not put Lomax in the halves and start Wellens at fullback??

Had to be announced today didn't it I was right though, they were in contract negotiations! Great signing for you guys, 5 years is a long time though!

Always is a good game between cas and saints, both like playing rugby

we should win this one on paper. i think there maybe 1 or 2 scares on the way though.

Another good test for both sides this and it could really be a big boost for Saints coming up to the Easter period if they could get a win. They are on a bit of a crest of a wave at the minute and are the team we all want to beat, but wanting is one thing, and getting is another!
