As follows;

Mason Caton-Brown
Michael Dobson
Niall Evalds
Theo Fages
Carl Forster
Wayne Godwin
Darrell Griffin
George Griffin
Harrison Hansen
Liam Hood
Greg Johnson
Ben Jones-Bishop
Ryan Lannon
Kevin Locke
Adrian Morley
Junior Sa’u
Lama Tasi
Scott Taylor
Jason Walton

Who misses out? I suspect perhaps Lannon, for G.Griffin as he’s had over a months’ worth of games for Wakefield under his belt. Then I assume one of either Wagga or Locke to miss-out too, just cant see a place for Locke in the 17 at the moment unfortunately.

I would therefore expect us to line-up with;

Evalds

Jones-Bishop
Sa’u
Caton-Brown
Johnson

Fages
Dobson

Taylor
Wagga
Morley

Hansen
Walton
Forster

D.Griffin
Tasi
G.Griffin
Hood

Seriously - if that side loses to Leigh those players need to have a look at themselves...

Yes,I think he'll go with that but I'd like to find a place for Locke,just not sure how !

I agree Bonita, unfortunately I just cant see where at the moment he can fit in. After 4 tries against Wigan and Leeds you just simply cant drop Evalds... Can you?

No you can't .
Evalds is currently the more potent attacking fullback,whereas Locke is a far better defender.
I thought Theo would be interchange hooker but he's also playing well at half back, so can't be dislodged. Thought he'd gained half a yard of pace against Leeds.

The thing I would say regarding Locke. If there was ever a time to give him game time to see where he's at it's this game and I think he'll give Lannon another run out.

The problem with this is that it could destabilise a team that's doing okay and it's not respecting your opposition either.

I'd go with the same 17 as against Leeds but with Godwin starting at 9, Hood to the bench, G.Griffin on the bench too inplace of Gee and Lannon.

Locke will play, if fit. They won't leave him out its all about the money.

Could you explain that one? Who benefits?

I just don't see Godwin starting.he has come from a season and half of part time training and rugby.
I see Hood playing the majority of the game,with Wayne Godwin playing maybe 20 minutes.

Just reckon he will play mate. Paying lots of money for him just to watch

Shows the depth we have when despite so many injuries we can still pick a 19 like that.

We can't drop Evalds nor though can we not play Locke if he is truly match fit.

For me it would be an ideal game to play Locke, playing against quality lower league opposition might be just the kick start he needs this season, if he doesn't get struck by lightening or catch dysentery of the local water he could really score a hat full.

Gutted Patterson isn't fit as I'd love too see him and Hock front each other.

Tasi and Moimoi should show up on the richter scale.

Moimoi isn't in our 19 man squad unfortunately, must still be injured.

Penky and Acton also missing who would normally be in our first choice 17.

Leigh Centurions 19-man squad:

1 Gregg McNally; 3 Greg Worthington; 4 Tom Armstrong; 5 Liam Kay; 6 Martyn Ridyard; 7 Ryan Brierley; 9 Bob Beswick; 10 Oliver Wilkes; 12 Tommy Goulden; 13 Sam Barlow; 15 Jonny Pownall; 16 Michael Platt; 18 Tom Spencer; 20 Sam Hopkins; 22 Andrew Dixon; 23 Martin Aspinwall; 26 Gareth Hock; 27 Lewis Foster; 29 Jake Emmitt.

I would put Locke or Evalds on the wing instead of Johnson. Would offer better coverage for bombs to the wing and both can shift. Johnson hasn't really pulled up trees for me so far, however he's not been bad. If be tempted to put locke on the wing and keep Niall at FB. Considering Locke is our marque player, he needs to play and justify he wage!

Disagree about Johnson, really rate him and think he's done well this season. He looks dangerous whenever he returns the ball and looks like he could break the line at any point. Its a shame he's playing outside Sa'u who as a winger must be a nightmare to play next to. Despite his many strengths, creating space and putting his winger in for a try isn't one of them.

I'd put out the same team that played against Leeds with Locke on the bench instead of Gee. I wouldnt expect Godwin's fitness to be good enough and with Locke on the bench, we could shuffle Niall / Theo / Liam as necessary.

My team therefore would be;

Niall Evalds
Ben Jones-Bishop
Mason Caton-Brown
Junior Sa’u
Greg Johnson
Theo Fages
Michael Dobson
Scott Taylor
Liam Hood
Adrian Morley
Harrison Hansen
Jason Walton
Carl Forster

Subs...
Kevin Locke
Lama Tasi
Darrell Griffin
Ryan Lannon

Missing out...
George Griffin
Wayne Godwin

Y sign Godwin then? By rotating him and hood, a u add fresh legs and pace. With it comes doubt, which worries defences. Disagree about Johnson, he's been an ok winger this year ( it is probably to do with Sau, but go looking for more work)

I dont think Locke will play, the doc on twitter firstly stated that Evalds is the best fullback at the club and then today said he did not bid for Tomkins because we got Evalds. Therefore he is either its trying to wind him up to get him playing his best, or again telling him he is not wanted at the club.

Well if fit Locke has to play. Quality - Agree with JGR about Junior and Iestyn must get into his ribs to tell him that on his outside we have an outstanding finisher who needs supply. MCB to make way for Locke & Godwin must play 30 mins at least for us to see the best in Hood.

Most salford fans aren't interested in our line-up Nozzy, when Marwan predicted/expected top 4 finish last season for them, Saturday's game might as well be v Wath Brow Hornets !

Keep stoking it, pal.

I'd fully expect him to come rotting out then.....

Does anyone know if you can pay on the gate and what end are the Salford fans in? First live game for me since 2006, and only because my flight to Gran Canaria tomorrow has been canceled. Taking my partner to her first ever game, and my Dad, who is 88 to what will probably be his last ever game. So hoping for a great performance.

Can't pay on the gate. Salford are in the South I believe, which is almost sold out and expected to be tomorrow, with the East opening for excess away/home support.
