I think he may well go with the same 17 as last week...only possible changes might be Gilmore for Lyons ...or maybe rest a winger and give sergent a run if fully fit ....I'd expect the rest to be unchanged

I think Owens deserves to keep a centre spot with Edge on the wing for Butt. I also think Lawton will be on the bench at least as he will miss the next 3 games.

I think it would be unfair to drop Taylor after the way he played last week, also Owens has been playing well, so it would be harsh to drop him.  I think we should leave Butt out, and make him wait for someone to get injured or have a bad game.

Ive heard Chappelhow is fit, so I would start with him, and I don’t think he’ll risk Sargent . 
I would go for 

Connell

Edge

Owens

Taylor

Ince

Gilmore

Hayes

Murray

Fozzard

Chappelhow

Wilde

Langtree

Mc Whirter

Subs

JJ

Lawton

Roberts

Hall

Pick players on form and not always been a Jack Owens fan, but has played very well recently in the centre, and Taylor was very good and deserves his place. Heard Langtree did well at prop and has got good size for it? We all like a squad in this league with 4 props in the 18. We definitely need to keep the team together that is playing well.

Agree keep players in that are playing well - if chapelhow fit starts on bench for me as langtree went well in what could be his new position

we have roberts,Wilde and mcwhirter to cover second row  when Lawton banned and hall at lf 

looks like gregson not flavour of the month anymore

All playing well, showing good team spirit and have put together some very splendid moves.

Owens, Johnstone, Connell and Hayes showing the way to play.

Considering what happened to Halifax, they are putting up a good fight despite being second best by a long way

Edge mom by a country mile, surprised he not been tapped for SL

all the backs played really well along with roberts who would run edge nearest for mom

wilde,langtree huge again, hall not as good as last week but still very good

very good performance all round

next week could bring on a different challenge !

@scouseviking55 I'll reserve judgment til we get a proper test scouse dewsbury rested 6 hence there results today and Halifax turned up with only 16 fit players crooks on bench but couldn't play so I'll reserve til a proper test

but played well against a poor side today
