I think hes going to be reluctant to play Sam Tomkins but IMO I do not see why he cannot play him off the bench at home against a team like Cas. Its ideal for him IMO especially when we are carrying a few knocks.

It all depends if Riddell is injured. McIlorum will probably retain his place.

Yes he is, he is quicker, can pass better and finish a move. As for defence, both are poor



To compare Mossop, Farrell or Flanagan is silly.

He offers exactly the same as Hansen. Hock & Locky are different kinds of players.

Bailey doesn't offer anything compared to Hansen.

We will have to agree to disagree with Goulding/Phelps cause i think Gouldings defence has improved alot since 2007. Goulding is an excellent finisher and once he gets over his 'greed' of the ball - which he will, he will learn he is only young, his winger will see more ball also. I remember an Interview with barrett in his first year and he spoke very highly of Goulding.

As for Bailey offers the same as hansen :lol: Hansen is miles better in attack - he actually runs onto the ball at speed, makes more tackles and scores more trys.

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS

For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.

For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.

Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row

Phelps, Roberts and Richards all picked up knocks against Hull. If only one is injured I'd bring in Ainscough on the wing, and move Richards to full back if neccessary.

If two are injured I'd bring in Ainscough and Pryce on the wings, and move Richards to full back if neccessary, unless the two injuries are Roberts and Richards, in which case I'd use Ainscough on the wing and Vievers at full back.

If all three are injured I'd have Vievers at full back with Pryce and Ainscough on the wings. That was a bit complicated but I hope it made sense.

Vievers is nowhere near ready for first team rugby.

I'd go with:

Richards
Roberts
Carmont
Bailey
Ainscough
Smith
Tommy
Fielden
Piggy
Prescott
Hansen
Locky
Tomkins

Subs

Feka
Hock
Eamonn
S. Tomkins

Probably won't happen. Want to see Ainscough given a go. Not a big fan of Goulding or Phelps or Bailey for that matter but think he would give Ainscough some protection.

That's shockingly harsh, Bailey is a very good player.

Phelps although no world beater is still better than the alternatives currently available within on squad.
