19 Man Squad Announced for Wakefield, Cloughie's back! : Fri Jul 08, 2011 1:38 pm  

Paul Clough has been names in the 19 man squad for Sundays game away at Wakefield Trinity Wildcats, this could be his first game since March if he makes it into the final 17. LMS will return from his 1 match suspension whilst Michael Shenton also features after 2 weeks out with an ankle injury. The 2 players to miss out from last week due to the new inclusions are Shaun Magennis and Matty Ashurst. Michael Shenton had been named in the 19 last week and so doesn't take any other places. Josh Perry is missing from last week after a tendon injury to his hamstring requiring surgery, this will see him out for around 3 months. Gary Wheeler and Leon Pryce are both around 2/3 games until returning whilst Ade Gardner will still be missing for the foreseeable future. 1. Paul Wellens, 3. Michael Shenton, 4. Sia Soliola, 5. Francis Meli, 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, 16. Paul Clough, 19. Andrew Dixon, 20. Jonny Lomax, 22. Jamie Foster, 24. Tom Armstrong, 25. Lee Gaskell, 28. Thomas Makinson. The squad can be found here. 1. Paul Wellens 28. Thomas Makinson 3. Michael Shenton 5.

Chris Flannery 7. Kyle Eastmond 19. Andrew Dixon and 24. Tom Armstrong to miss out for me. I'd rather see the back-line reshuffled to accommodate Sia at centre but can't see Royce doing that.

Smashing news. I'm a massive fan of Cloughie's, and I had a feeling that this would be the year he'd establish himself as a leading SL front rower. Unfortunately injury has put paid to that, but it'll be great to have him back, and hopefully he'll be on a roll come play-off time.

They've just put Leon back two further weeks. Will we ever see him again?

Where's this come from? I haven't heard anything other than possibly Catalans, if not, Hull KR.

Can Armstrong even play having already done so for Leigh last night? I'm pretty sure there's a rule stopping clubs from playing dual-registered players for both teams on the same weekend. I'd like to see him given a run in the first team tbh, namely in place of Wello who has struggled for whatever reason recently.

It's Armstrong who's on dual-registration, not Makinson.

I made it up after forgetting we were playing Wakefield this week and not Catalans.

I don't know what you mean.
