Oh you are melodramatic

Whatever side we can field for this, we’re going to have to show battling spirit.

Broadbent, Briscoe, Sutcliffe, Sutcliffe, Briscoe, Smith, Eastmond, Oledski, Leeming, Prior, Mellor, Martin, Tetevano; Dwyer, Thompson, Vuniyayawa, Walters.

Wheres this being reported?

God some luck this year we are having, surely we need to look at what we are doing in training due to all these injuries? I’d understand a couple but it’s borderline ridiculous now

The way the half backs keep dropping gonna end up with Sinfield and Long in the halves. In all seriousness looks like this season going to be a real challenge. Not sure on current rules is there an option to bring in a short term loan until we get a couple of bodies back

This is a concern. How did walker go from being nearing a return in the coming weeks/months to being out for the year?

Its been known since the start of the season Walker would be out for the year, his surgery failed.

Thanks I knew it was from the start of the year but wasnt sure how, I thought he'd been up and running in training again then pulled up.

Awful luck for Walker let's hope surgery this time has been successful.

Devastating for him, I hope he’s taking a lot from how Harry has dealt with his situation.

If these additional injuries are right then the game plan needs plenty of big mobile bodies in the 17 playing off second phase and trying to control the ruck, we’re very unlikely to get anywhere playing rigid attacking structures. The most appropriate/mobile back row to do a job in the centre and Walters and King brought in.

I’d also try get leeming and Dwyer on together where possible.

Such a shame McLelland isn`t fit to stake his place in the team.
Losing Gale as the only creative player in the team is a real blow.

Hearing Liam Sutcliffe injured too which surely means Smith and Eastmond in the halves with Vuniyayawa on the bench.

Why’s Gale in the 21 then, and Liam Sutcliffe though no Eastmond

Still no Eastmond he is certainly being protected. Surely he will make his debut against Wigan?

What's the point? We will get taken to the cleaners in that one. Might aswell be the KR game now.....

Who will play in the halves - Sutcliffe and who

Sutciffe and Smith or Dywer and Sutcliffe.

If they've just named gale in the 21 and he is actually injured (especially longer term) I dont see the point?

Think if we keep Saints under 50, we've done well.....

Neither do I if he can't play or is he going to have an injection. Or maybe not as bad as first feared?

Probably the best idea yet .

Absolutely, it's in the public domain so would look pretty ridiculous (again, if true)

did say more chance of seeing him in the stands

would he have ?

If the new injury to Gale is genuine, and I realise there’s more chance of me growing a third bollock by 14:30 on Saturday, wouldn’t it be funny if Leeds did win...
