If walsh has the all clear to play than Id start with him. I wouldnt plan on giving him 80 mins but id see how it goes. The ankle op was basically a clean up so he should be ok. Id maybe take him off 10 mins before halftime and then bring him on for last 15/20 mins depending how the game is going.



Id put Greenwood on the bench as I feel coming back from a break is always a little daunting at first but if we give him few 20 min spells over the next few weeks I don't think it be long before HES fully fit.

I really hope we pick up where we left off with Greenwood hitting those lines out wide. They were proving to be a real game breaker.

I think we'll lose this one..



My starting line up would be

34. Shannon McDonnell.

5. Adam Swift, 3. Jordan Turner, 17. Mark Percival, 22. Matty Dawson,

12. Jon Wilkin, 6. Travis Burns,

14. Alex Walmsley, 9. James Roby, 10. Kyle Amor,

13. Louie McCarthy-Scarsbrook, 21. Joe Greenwood,

4. Josh Jones,



7. Luke Walsh, 8. Mose Masoe, 19. Greg Richards, 25. Andre Savelio,

I'd start with Walsh. He's missed 4 weeks so his fitness won't be massively affected. If he needs to come off for the last 20 fair enough, but with Greenwood coming back in, I don't see the point of having both on the bench.



Really looking forward to this game, both teams high in confidence and playing some good stuff. Who can back up best after tough games last week?

I would expect this to be a tough encounter for the first 20 mins so I would start with the Wilkin/Burns partnership then bring on Walsh as the game settles down. It could go to the last 10-15 mins so perhaps we might need all our creative players to be on the pitch at the same time.



Jones was great last year for this fixture and could go great for us now that his future has been settled. I think our pack will be tested on this game but we should have the team spirit to handle it. On the negative side, I don,t know if Thaler will ref this game with equal balance so we need to concentrate on our discipline in the best way we can.

Silverwood is ref isn't he?

If you go with Walsh, make sure he's not defending on Webster's side. That guy's an animal. Not what a half back needs when he's easing back in.

Junior Moors will be coming down that side as well.

I think last week Jones was fantastic, one of his better matches.



Certainly earned a spot in the side, for this week.

Not sure, the OP mentioned Thaler, think BBC Sport are saying Thaler.

its Silverwood think Thaler is ill

safe travels

Thaler's now in charge of the Widnes game. I Think
