(For what it's worth):

1. Zak Hardaker
3. Kallum Watkins
6. Danny McGuire
7. Rob Burrow
8. Keith Galloway
11. Jamie Jones-Buchanan
14. Liam Sutcliffe
15. Brett Delaney
16. Brad Singleton
17. Mitch Garbutt
18. Jimmy Keinhorst
19. Mitch Achurch
20. Anthony Mullally
21. Josh Walters
22. Ash Handley
23. Ashton Golding
24. Jordan Baldwinson
25. Jordan Lilley
26. Brett Ferres

My 17 (assuming all are fit):

Hardaker
Golding
Watkins
Keinhorst
Handley
McGuire
Lilley
Galloway
Burrow
Garbutt
Ferres
JJB
Singleton

Sutcliffe
Delaney - suspect he is not fit & Achurch in instead
Mullally
Baldwinson

Suspect BMD will pick Walters ahead of Baldwinson

Walters should be ahead of Delaney if not fit, and ahead of Achurch either way because at least he puts the effort in.

I'd be tempted to give Sutty and Lilley a go in the halves, it seemed to be clicking last week before we had to move Sutty to FB.

No way on earth I would start with sutty. He would only make the bench due to utility value. If McD drops lilley or burrow then I may just combust.

If everyone is fit

Hardaker
Golding
Watkins
Keinhorst
Handley
Mcguire
Lilley
Galloway
Burrow
Garbutt
Ferres
Delaney
JJB

Subs

Sutcliffe
Singleton
Mullally

Delaney is never fit really but he will get selected if he puts his hand up to play

Where's Joel moon he was in squad last week also any information on hall , Brisco and cuthbertson

Hall was in the 19 for cas!

No Hardaker or McGuire, Which means Burrow will have to play in the halves because Sutcliffe will have to play full-back. Which means Falloon will have to come in and play hooker.

The alternative is you pick a winger from the 19s (none of whom are good enough) and put Golding at full-back, with Sutcliffe/Lilley in the halves and Burrow at hooker.

Edit - McDermott suggests Cameron Smith will get his debut and that Luke Briscoe may also play. Hands up everyone who remembered we even still have Luke Briscoe. No idea where he's been playing, as he hasn't been in the Featherstone side.

If you believe the 19 man listing holds any weight.

wouldn't be shocked to see Zak playing Friday night.

Both out according to McDermott's press conference this morning.

Where's he going to play Cam Smith? Probably just a bench spot to not actually come on.

Burrow has to be kept out of the halves...why not Golding alongside Lilley at SO? Sutcliffe can go centre with Watkins outside him. It might allow us to see more of his attacking prowess rather than see him nullified by been the second rower in defence.
At the very least Golding should play FB in Hardaker's absence.

....hmmm....but if Golding plays SO and Sutcliffe centres then who plays FB? Good point.. Sutcliffe to FB and anybody in reserves who can play centre? Achurch maybe...he is obviously not a forward

Luke Briscoe apparently drafted in, I thought he'd moved on?

Was at Hunslet last year, but had a knee reconstruction according to Peter Smith. No idea whether he's been brought back on a short term deal, but if he has then it says a lot about the coach's faith in the club's Academy system doesn't it?

Yep, very odd. I'm the guy who responded to you on Twitter by the way

We're not in good shape at the moment are we?

. .. Luke Briscoe FFS ..with all due respect

I thought he did a good job at hooker for us when he had the chance, much better than Robbie Ward.

I agree. Good player when fit and a run of games under his belt.

Golding
L Briscoe
Watkins

I too thought he did well. Quick out of dummy half and not afraid to run forward. But with the players we have fit (golding, Sutcliffe, lilley, burrow, falloon) as well as his lack of fitness/super league games I suggest that be the spine and Briscoe to the wing. Maybe his older brother could give him a few tips.

On another note, looking forward to seeing the much hyped cam smith make his debut.

It all depends on squad fitness, because we seem to be having to reach deeper and deeper into the pot.

Yes, Cam Smith making his debut is a highlight if it happens. Excellent young talent with bags of potential for the future. Fingers crossed we see a Star born.

I wouldn't get too carried away mate frim what ive seen he's still adjusting to u19 RL let alone 1st team.

Definitely early doors, I agree. It will help his development though.

Absolutely i just think he & some have found the step up to u19's harder than they expected especially against the bigger packs & well organised defences.

Do we even expect Cam Smith to get off the bench though?

So
