So moving on to Wires. Think they will be a couple of changes. Who would you bring in?

It's a big game to bring in a young winger for. If Carlos is back I think he'll push Scott on the wing.

Doubt we'll see Savelio but he'd offer us something from thr bench

Two big decisions,

Who plays on the wing and has Savelio done enough off the field for a recall.

Personally would bring Savelio back into the 17

It would be a crime to continue playing Lane and McIntosh
Dont see this game as any bigger than a home fixture.Its the last game on Sunday so likely mostly only Hull and Warrington fans in the stadium
Young players have to be blooded in the first team at some time and lets face it Cam Scott is no speedy wing.
I would go with one of the young wings with Carlos in the centre and Savelio back in the second row for Lane.
I would also start with Taylor and Sao in the front row and a bench of Satae,Fash,Lane or Scott and Dwyer
Going forward like to see Carlos given a run in the second row

Savelio & Carlos for Lane & McIntosh .

Not sure if Savelio has done enough to get in the team, but Lane definitely done enough (or should I say, not enough) to be out of the team

I dont know how many lives he's got left .

Judging by the report of how well Savelio played in the reserves I’d think that Lanes place in the 17 would and should be under threat.

Most seem to agree that a half match fit Savelio still offers more than Lane

And I’d agree especially if he has taken on board what TS & the coaching staff have said re attitude to effort without and without the ball.

To right he does.

Big game for our pack. Tag, Sao, Satae and Fash need to set the platform because we have two half backs that can win us this one.

They were taken to the cleaners at the weekend, we need to pile on the misery for them.

Hope I'm wrong but I still think we'll be very fragile if Wire bring their A game. Can see us shipping a big score if we're not at it.

Think I'd agree to be fair, whilst I'm not expecting a win, I am expecting an 80min team performance with improvements to the areas we fell short against Salford such as the discipline and brain farts. I also hope we'll see one or two changes to the 17 based on some performances at Salford.

Can't see Carlos moving to S.R, - our right edge of Lane, Scott,& McIntosh is a total a disaster, & needs completely rebuilding, & if Swift moves it will leave us with Sutcliffe, Carlos,& ?????
Can't see why we've re signed Scott, - best of three poor players, but no aggression, no pace. You can't coach pace & he hasn't improved in 5? years so what's the point?

Don’t get the obsession with McIntosh been public enemy number 1. Was steady on weekend. His play set up first try, Knocked the ball down to stop a try. Intercepted to stop a try (which we ended up scoring because of). Scored under under sticks because his awareness.

Still needs improvements but is definitely heading in the right direction.

1. Hoy
2. Swift
3. Sutty
4. Carlos
5. McIntosh
6. Truey
7. Clifford
8. Tag
9. Houghton
10. Sao
11. Savelio
12. Griffin
13. Cator

14.Satae
15. Fash
16. Brown
17. Dwyer

18. Scott

I’d roll the dice with Savelio, if his fitness isn’t up to 80 minutes then Ligi moves into the back row whilst he has a breather. I’d maybe even give Dwyer the week off for Joey. More versatile and it’s a free hit so give him a shot.

Warrington have a massive pack and unreal pace in the backs. We need to try and get on top of their pack so their back have no space

you could say he actually cost us the game
dont most wings when intercepting go the lengh of the field?

I'm going for us to turn them over. I think it's gonna be our day in Newcastle. I think we've been building for a big performance over the last month and I think Warrington are gonna get it.

I feel more confident about this week than I did against Salford.
Warrington haven't been great in recent weeks and I think they're there for the taking if we play well.

I definitely fancy us to win more than I did when we played them earlier in the year, think our form has improved and there's dropped. Play like we did on Sunday and cut our errors by 50% and we can win this one.

Our record at Magic is poor though when not playing Rovers, think we have won one game, was against Cas I think (or London), took a couple of hammerings too (Hudds and Saints)

Just looked record in magic is 6 wins and 9 losses. Only beaten Cas apart from Rovers, our record at Newcastle is slightly better 3 wins (all against Rovers) and 3 losses.

Not after a serious achilles injury....

No Carlos, but will be back for Leigh, likewise will Litten. Savelio and Shaul could be in the 21.
