Meli and Soliola OUT
Wheeler still OUT but is now back contact training
Clough may return to U20's or 1st Team

To follow this Saints have just responded to a tweet with both Meli/Soliola expected back for the semi

So, in the running for centre position we have -
Eastmond
Pryce
Flanders
Is armstrong back, or has he remained at leigh?
Perhaps Foster or Makinson to move off the wing?

Probably Eastmond to centre and Gaskell to the bench.

This.

But who to replace Sia?

Clough to the bench? Magennis to the backrow?

Wellens, Makinson, Shenton, Eastmond, Foster, Pryce, Lomax, Graham, Roby, Puletua, Flannery, Wilkin, Moore. Bench: LMS, Magennis, Clough, Gaskell.

If Clough misses out, then Dixon / Ashurst on the bench.

i think gaskell will start at stand off this week save pryce he will come on for last thirty to replace eastmond with lomax or gaskell going in the centre think its a battle between eastmond and gaskell this weekend for the bench stop for semi

Do either add anything as bench players?

for the semi yes they do lomax wellens pryce are all very injury prone so one of them is a must on the bench would hate to have to stick wilkin in the halfs in semi final football lack of halfs back lost us the semi last year

Pryce isn't yet capable of playing the full 80 I shouldn't think and so someone will need to be on the bench who can cover in the halves.

We need a back on the bench. It is so incredibly obvious that I'm amazed people keep questioning it, even now, after all our injuries of this season!

Is there a game this weekend?



Both sides should just play their u20s teams. I think you will want to beat Wigan in the cup as much as we want to beat Leeds.

Given the news today about Scott Moore, I wonder if he will be playing this weekend?
