I think the team will be :-

Mathers
Roberts
Carmont
Bailey
Richards
Smith
Lulu
Fielden
Riddell
O'Carroll
Hansen
Tomkins
O' Loughlin

Hock
Feka
Coley
Pryce

Told you so about Sam being in squad


Lets hope he is given a chance now.

There is no way he will drop Ainscough for Mathers. That would be as daft as him not giving Sam Tomkins a chance.

Apparently he's told someone who posts on here that Ainscough, injuries permitting, will be playing against Quins.

I agree that it would be a daft choice but I just get the feeling that Noble is a little pig headed as far as Mathers is concerned.

Like it or lump it Mathers is considered our first choice full back and had he not been suspended would in all probability have played against Hull at Full Back, therefore considering the performances and results since I see no reason why Nobby would leave him out completely for this game.

And rightly so. Noble isn't daft and to drop him would make a mockery of his "those in form play" mantra.

He isn't. Roberts is.

Ainscough is in the starting 13.

Richards
Roberts
Bailey
Carmont
Ainscough
S Tomkins
Smith
Fielden
Leuluai
O'Carroll
Hansen
J Tomkins
O'Loughlin

subs
Paleaaesina
Coley
Hock
Riddell

I don't know how you conclude that considering when the two were both available for selection Mathers started at Full Back.

Would Roberts have started there against Hull and Cas if Mathers wasn't suspended ? - obviously it is only guess but I don't think he would have done.

The question whether he should be first choice would obviously yield an answer of yes, certainly given both his and Ainscoughs performances against Cas.

Sam Tomkins and Sean Ainscough included in the squad. Well done Noble.

Goulding left out - no suprises there after his performance against Castleford. Fair enough.

If I was being fussy I'd have liked to have seen Paul Prescott in the squad but I'll let him off.

Let's hope he plays them.

i hope so matey



i also hope s.tomkins is to so we can all put our minds to rest an see what he can do in the super league

Riddell to play the full 80 minutes?

IMO I'd go with:

Pat Richards
Amos Roberts
Karl Pryce
George Carmont
Sean Ainscough

Sam Tomkins
Tim Smith

Stuart Fielden
Thomas Leuluai
Eamon O'carroll

Sean O'loughlin
Gareth Hock

Joel Tomkins

-----------------------------------------

Harrison Hansen
Mark Riddell
Iafeta Paleaasina
Andy Coley

Mathers and Bailey to drop out.

how mathers deserves a place in the squad before goulding ill never know.

Roberts
Ainscough
Bailey
Carmont
Richards
Smith
Leuluai
Fielden
Riddell
O'Carroll
Hansen
Joel
Lockers

Hock
Feka
Tomkins
Pryce

how good does that bench look

paul cullen highlighted it on boots and all........he picked up that the cas attack were running at him cos hes suspect in the tackle.

then he picked up on cats running at monaghan.

Smiths tackling is very worrying, he seems to 'grab' at players and not want shoulder contact.


John Monie ?

Bailey is playing centre and apparently goulding to miss out.

is on the bench for mcclorum (soz about spelling)

That'll solve all your problems. Do you really expect a young lad to carry an underachieving team and the expectations of your fans ?

No-one expects that of him, so go crawl back under your stone. We are just happy too see him get his chance.

FFS we get slated for not using our youngsters and when we do everyone still has something else to moan about.

your right what a bunch of tools

not a chance i would put pryce anywhere near the stand off, hes to slow he cant think quick enough, hes to scared to take the ball in and he hasnt got a kicking game at all

I believe that is game set match

I hope it is,

1. Richards
2. Pryce
3. Bailey
4. Carmont
5. Ainscough
6. Tomkins
7. Smith
8. Fielden
9. Leuluai
10. O' Carroll
11. Hansen
12. O' Loughlin
13. Tomkins J

14. Feka
15. Hock
16. Riddell
17. Coley

Leave Carmont & Ainscough together, Richards solid @ FB, lets use Pryce & Bailey and see what they can do.
Hope 6, 7 & 9 play as a team and not 3 individuals?????? & Hopefully the pack will look after itself.

i for one hope sam plays and has a stormer. I as a saints fan want a strong wigan side to play against based on young british stars
