Reckon Reynolds could be a suprise inclusion?

If he is included I'm sure he counts as a interchange because he wasn't named in the 21 man squad.

Hopefully whoever is named at right winger will be switched on to early kicks over the top for French to chase as Wigan love that play.

Fonua turns slower than the Ever Given and Connors positioning leaves a lot to be desired.

That rule was suspended last year, and I can't see any reference to it being brought back in again.

I just assumed it would have been brought back. Not like the RFL to be unclear about things like this is it

The newly-introduced rule punishing teams for making late changes to their 21-player matchday squads by the removal of an interchange will be suspended for the remainder of the 2020 season.

So maybe no news is bad news.

He absolutely HAS to succeed!

He's lightening fast too.

About what I was expecting for Faraimo. Probably fair enough on reflection

Thought 10 mins was harsh, games going soft, great hit

It would have been a great hit if his arm was slightly lower but it hit his chin area and therefore classed as a high tackle.

Reynolds, Ma'u next week possibly and Bowden definitely out 4/6 weeks broken bone in his elbow, Sneyd doubtful as is Griffin.

Worst case scenario

Connor
Fijian winger
Fonua
Scott
Swift
Carlos
McNamara
Taylor
Houghton
Satae
Lane
Savelio
Cator

Brown
Fash
Sao
Johnstone

Shame we have loaned out Wynne as I would have played him at FB.

Still a strong pack and bench, but very weak in the backs and particularly halfback
