21 Glenn Riley

12 Ben Westwood

Match tickets are still on sale in WolfWare and at WolfWare Online

We are getting quite thin on the ground.
I would go with the following............but TS could rest Ratch as he did Bridgey last week and put GOB in the halfs.

Matthew Russell
Gene Ormsby
Ryan Atkins
Joel Monaghan
Rhys Evans
Stefan Ratchford
Chris Bridge
Chris Hill
Micky Higham
Anthony England
Ben Westwood
Ben Harrison
Ben Currie

Roy Asotasi
Brad Dwyer
Glenn Riley
Joe Philbin

George King
Gareth O’Brien

Injured.
Simon Grix
James Laithwaite
Michael Monaghan
Paul Wood
Ben Evans
Richie Myler
Trent Waterhouse

Always a tricky game away at Hull, I wouldn't rest anyone, strongest available

Russell
Ormsby
Joel
Atkins
Evans
Bridge
Ratch
Hill
Mickey
Asotasi
Currie
Westwood
Harrison

Riley
Dwyer
King
England

O'Brien
Philbin to miss out

Play our strongest possible team, looking at the 7 injured players and they would walk into most teams starting 13.

Rest Asotasi and Riley

Now that's a better way of putting it.

What he said, BUT we have London at home the week after so probably best to rest players then if he is going to do so.

Play Big Roy as he needs all the practice.
Riley and GOB out.

We are getting down to the bare bones, but that is still a strong 19. The emergence of several young players this season has been a huge bonus and in a few weeks time Smith could have a problem of who to leave out.

We need a strong start to take the wind out of them, particularly as our squad depth is low off the bench. I'll go with :

Russell
Ormsby
Joel
Atkins
Evans
Bridge
Ratch
Hill
Mickey
England
Currie
Westwood
Harrison

Asotasi
Dwyer
King
O'Brien

Spell Ratch at loose with GOB.

Does anybody have estimates as to when these guys will be back?

I fancy Joe Philbin will come into the team, but perhaps not George King. Two youngsters away at Hull seems a bit too much, even though Glen Riley is not performing particularly well. And as we need the two points, Bridge back in place of GOB, even though he played well against Bradford.

To miss out;
King
GOB
