Glad they won't be suspended for the game. We'll beat them with their full side out so they can have no excuse.

Win or lose next Sunday I still think Webster should walk. Whether he has lost the dressing room or not is one thing but it certainly seems he has lost the confidence of the fans. I'm not sure that he'll ever win that back.

To be fair, you should do. Your team will be far more 'fired up' than the game at Hull KR, when your team gave up when more than 2 scores behind. It will send out a message to Leigh, Bradford, Fev etc, that you will be no pushovers in the 'middle 8's'. We play part time sides week in week out (apart from Bradford/London). If you lose this one......oh dear !

You could say they that because of that they are more battle hardened than if they were blowing teams away. On paper we should win the game. On grass i am far from confident.

You're right, we aren't playing that well at the moment. I can see both teams raising their games next week.



Our coach acknowledged tonight, on Radio Manchester, that, despite your poor run, you are more 'battle hardened' to playing at SL intensity, week in, week out. (despite what the more cynical Trinity fans may suggest!

) It will still be a huge ask, for us to win at yours.

Hope Owen,Collis,Kirmond and Lauitiiti are back fit to give Trinity more of a cutting edge against Leigh.

Hall - Not a perfect Full Back but attacks better from the back than anyone else

Johnstone - Play him on the left outside an experienced centre

Collis - if fit he's the only class outside back we've got

Lyne - instruct him to start playing with physicality & impose himself

Owen - better when he's busy throughout, don't let him get detatched from play

Godinet - too good to spend 50% of the game sat down

Smith - just organise and kick well, no need to be a superstar just be functional

Anderson - Best Front Rower we have, 2nd game back should be better

McShane - interchange with Washbrook, not ideal but he needs a rest

Simon - Get the benefit of his impact right from the KO, put Leigh on the baackfoot

Kirmond - Like T Smith, go back to simple, play on the right, run lines

Washbrook - a la Kirmond but on the left, concentrate on partnership with centre

D Smith - 3rd Prop playing in the centre channel,



Miller - Options for Full Back/ Half Back/ Hooker

Ryan - Centre/ Back Row/ Front Row

Scruton - Come into the game looking for impact, high energy

Anakin - same as Scruton



Overall, let's get back to basics, want it more than them on both sides of the ball!

Defend in your channels

Up and out defence, pushing from the Middle as the ball travels out

Is Ali injured?

Arundel didn't do much wrong on Thurs, so if Collis not fit would keep him in the centres and swap Miller on the bench for Ali.

D.Smith played well early doors starting at prop with Scruton.

Would have Anderson, Simon, Anakin on the bench as three really good go forward forwards.

Isn't Paea due to return also?

Sorry, forgot about Ali Lauitiiti!



Swap him in for Miller or Anakin

The Leigh chairmans twitter account certainly makes for interesting reading. Classy guy.

We need Ali. He's the only one who can break the defence near the line.

We'd have had 2-3 tries at Rovers if he'd been playing. The rest just can't do it unless it's broken play.
