Wonder if he’ll play Sambou this week?

And if he does, who would you drop to make way for him?

I would give Sambou a game at either centre or wing and give one of the other 4 a rest. Stick with Abdull and Gilmore as they have only just started to play together. Only other change, possibly bring Bibby back onto the bench and rest one of the other forwards.

Goole are 2 wins from 4 so not bad, but a League 1 standard squad. 3 players I'm familiar with, captain Ferres is 39 years old! Watts is 35 and ex Saints forward Savellio, to be fair he's only 30.

Well I reckon sambou in at centre, not sure who drops out though !
to drop either winger would be really unfair, so maybe Fleming makes way ?

This is a good week to rest anyone with a knock

Fleming has been one of the star players in the last few weeks so for me first on the team sheet at centre. It is wonderful to see a Widnes forum having dilemma's on players in a positive way.

Call me cynical but I'm sure the gaffer will find a place for Jack but not jumah....not a chance Owens gets dumped two weeks consecutive....if he plays jumah he'll drop edgey coz flem is a fave and is actually playing well ..

Would be looking for a 30 points plus win today.

Sambou should be given a run perhaps to replace Butt or one of centres.

Unfortunately I will not be in my C stand seat today & probably a few more games as just had a total hip joint surgery.

Great first half, dropped away a bit in the second but Murray surely was the MOM 

abdull great acquisition, let’s keep this going now - Donny away probably our biggest test to come

Frustrating to concede those 2 tries at the end, which makes the score line look more skewed than it needs to be and would have been lovely for our points difference

Decent enough score I guess but letting them in for those 2 late tries took the gloss off a bit. Am I being too critical?

Did anyone hear the attendance?

Good first half followed by abit of a sloppy 2nd half.

Good to put a big score on a team but thought we was abit soft defensively they shouldn't have got 24 IMO. Thought we got absolutely nailed in the penalty count too…

Good win, and probably not unreasonable to expect them to fight back. That puts us up to 2nd at the minute. Did anyone see why Edge was taken off?
