Everyone (including myself I must admit) seems to have forgotten we have two games to play yet, which require our best support! Look, even from 5th, we only have 3 games to win to be at OLD TRAFFORD. We know they can do it, they know they can do it. It just seems like everyone's gone home moping, when we should be getting behind them. Come on Lads! You'll miss Fartown when the seasons over! Let's get behind them and keep them playing till the last possible Bloody Moment, at Old Trafford, preferably beating Wigan and Sam Tomkins.

and, come on, we've seen much worse, we've seen Fartown lose 60-4, 72-0, 52-48. 10 years ago, 3 wins from 10 would be a good record



So, what is our team for Harlequins?

Grix
McGillvary
Cudjoe
Simpson?
Hodgson

Brown
Brough?

Crabtree
Robinson?
Griffin?
Fa'alongo
Kirmond
Faiumu?

Admittedly, I've been away for the last 2 weeks, so I'm not as up to date. Can someone fill me in?

Really looking forward to getting behind the lads for the next two outings. Two home victories and then the lottery starts, and if you,ve got a ticket got a chance.
Andy raleighs column is interesting about the competition for places. Hope it has the same effect it had at the start of the season....

I'd go with :-

Grix
McGillvary? Horne Cudjoe Lawrence
Brown Brough?
Faiumu
Fa'alogo Gilmour
Crabtree Robinson Griffin

Mason? Patrick Kirmond Simpson

I'd like to see Fooey doing the LOD role of bottling up the middle of the field going into the play offs,he's a very solid defender.If he's asked to play that role he probably won't be as effective on attack though.

Weak left edge defence was exploited by Salford,so I'd get Bruno back in there,the usual swapping with Leroy between a&d. (Is Joe Wardle fit now?)

Simpson interchange hooker.

I hope to see the ball getting out to the ob's more against Quins.Going into the play offs,for mine,I think it's vital we start getting the ball wider.

We will all support the team as we have done for years 1961.

Praise a good performance critique a bad one but always there next game.

Sean Lunt back massive boost bar LOD full squad for play offs maybe the tide might be turning !!!

Shuan Lunt is back?!

Lets hope the can let pull together and show some of that team spirit they had earlier in the season, and make something out of what was a promising start to the season

I've misplaced a couple of season ticket books. Can anyone help us out with tickets for Sunday please?

been saying it for a while now the season aint over yet, but now we are starting to get KEY players back we have a good shout for old trafford, will be interesting to see how pies back up after wembley hopefully badly so we go to wire again in play offs.

a few positive vibes coming out of the camp with players coming back and training going well... lets hope so!

can see us giving harlequins a hammering even if we arent back on form, we seem to always play well v quins at home

then will set us up nicely for the derby v leeds!

Bookies have us at +22 on the handicap.
Please.

I'd say at least 18 points.

so you will be on quins then??

think bookies have it about right, would of been intrested at say 16

I'd think it will be something like this:

Cudjoe
McGillvary Wardle Lawrence Hodgson
Brown Brough
Faiumu
Fa'alogo Gilmour
Crabtree Robinson Griffin

Mason Raleigh Horne Ferguson

Heard Patrick and Grix are not 100%

edit with Simpson and Kirmond not in squad

the squad is

grix
lawrence
cudjoe
gilmour
hodgson
brown
brough
crabtree
robinson
griffin
faalogo
faiumu
mason
raleigh
patrick
horne
mcgillivary
wardle
ferguson


no Lunt and no Simpson still a strong squad.

Think it will probably shape up:

Grix

Jerry Wardle Cudjoe Hodgson

Brown Brough

Fa'alogo
Bruno Gilmour
Griffin Faiumu Eorl

Robbo
Patrick
Mason
Ferguson

shame kirmond has been dropped for this game, hes been playing quite well and was covering for o'donnell previously.... suppose hes had to give way to ferguson

Good to see Mase back

Hopefully it'll be as explosive as the U-20's match

3 players sent off after a mass brawl!! A good old fashioned tear up!

Grix
jerry
Wardle
Leroy
Lawrence
Brown
Brough
Crabtree
Robbo
Griffin
Fa'alogo
Gilmour
Ferguson

Raleigh
Faiumu
Horne
Patrick

A bit surprised Kirmit has been omitted myself,he's the more dynamic of the backrowers imo,puts himself about,can make things happen.

It's the coaches call,will have to go with it.

lets get those 2 points today and secure the top 4 finish!!! which at the beginning of the season i would of taken

even though we have been poor over the last 3 months we have been gifted 4th place with catalans/leeds failing to take advantage

top 4 sorted now! well done to all, small matter of wigan or warrington away now if we are to reach he promised land

Surprised Mason was not playing. He looked well fed up in the warm up.
Anyone know why not selected ? Or nb just winding him upfor next week?

Quins should have been 10 nowt up,maybe 12 nowt,but they can't ground the ball in 2 attempts or later catch the ball to fall over the try line,it would have been a different game having for us having to play catch up.

No complaints today we got the ball to the outside backs,and put some great tries on.

A bigger test next week if Leeds can be bothered,but they always like to put us hillbillies in our place,and we hate them big city slickers.

think mase and lunty were just been saved for next week myself. both are fit so can only see that been the reasoning behind it.
