Marsh and one of Cross and Tuson to miss out.

First of all I'm glad to we're resting who we're resting. Although I would liked to have seen Deacon also rested.



Marsh and Tuson to miss out for me.



My only gripe would be McIlorum having to play the full eighty a week before the QF.



I like the thread title Andy.

Who's playing 9 then? Hmmmm....

Surely we can't be asking Maccy to play 80mins there the week before next

Unless we saw something mid-game like Finch possibly having a spell at 9 with Lockers at 6, meaning Farrell to loose and a forward off the bench replacing McIlorum, but I doubt that's very likely.

If he cant play the full 80 I'd be a bit worried tbh.

Marsh on the bench than Mcllorum goes off he comes on move pat to fullack and sam at 6 and decs at 9

It would have been the perfect opportunity to give Mellor or Logan Tomkins a game. McIlorum playing 80 minutes before a big game the week after doesn't seem to make much sense.



It will be interesting to see who misses out. I can't see Fielden being thrown straight back in, it would seem a bit risky given his injuries. Cross has already said he'd be playing in the under 20's so that would mean Marsh would be in the squad.

I can't see why Fielden would even be named in the 19 though if he wasn't going to be in the 17. Fielden is a shoe-in for the bench IMO.

14. Stuart Fielden

15. Andy Coley

16. Gareth Hock

17. Ben Cross

I'm guessing Tuson or one of our 8 half-backs will do a few minutes at hooker.

I'd give Carmont and Coley a rest. Mossop a game in the second row. A pack of Lima, Mickey Mac, Cross, Mossop, Hock and Lockers (at some stage of the match) could be interesting.

Brilliant, I have Chase, Leuluai and Dureau in my dream team.
