Shame Thompson hasn't made it.

Given Hohaia wasn't used in the way I'd expected last week I'm leaning to move him into the halfbacks and moving Wilkin back into the back row.

Lomax
Makinson Percival Turner Swift
Burns Hohaia
Amor Roby Walmsley
Wilkin Vea
Jones

Greenwood Richards Masoe Savelio

Would be happy enough with same again though

I could be persuaded by that. Although I think one of the reasons Hohaia and Savelio were used so sparingly was because our main men got quite a few long breaks in the game - I'd expect to see more rotation on Thursday.

Good point, I hadn't considered that !

I think this needs to be tried and tested a bit more when the opportunity arises because I can,t see us getting a full season out of Walshy, Burns and Lance look a bit more durable.

I'm also assuming that Roby has put on bulk to play certain gametime at loose forward which means Lance playing 9.

Lance could have very good utility value and needs to be in the 17 every week to contribute.

Big Joe is the one under pressure as there is a waiting list to take his position in the 17.

Same as last week, for me.

What is the latest news on LMS, Thompson and Walsh?

Locke, Hauraki and Sa'u missing for Salford.

Same as last week for me too - the lack of stoppages (hopefully) in this game should mean Amor & Walmsley are spelled a little more often and the subs better utilised.

The Red Devils 19 Man Squad to face St Helens on Thursday 12th February KO 8pm has been announced.

19 Man Squad

Ben Jones-Bishop
Mason Caton-Brown
Rangi Chase
Michael Dobson
Niall Evalds
Theo Fages
Darrell Griffin
Josh Griffin
Harrison Hansen
Gareth Hock
Greg Johnson
Tommy Lee
Adrian Morley
Cory Paterson
Lama Tasi
Scott Taylor
Adam Walne
Jordan Walne
Jason Walton

I would give Flanagan, a whirl as I would like to see if he goes better than Jones.

If we just go with the same line up then are we testing the full squad?

Still looks a decent Salford team, possibly tight game first 30 mins before our pack gets to control momentum.
