Either we lose by 50 points or we win by 2, I can't decide.

Oh I can, it’ll be a huge defeat!! Not through lack of effort but lack of ability.

Yep

Saints will be severely depleted as well I guess after the injured lads had to pull out from the England squad and none could turn out for the All Stars.

Walmesley and Lomax both named in their squad.

Disgraceful, we lose Bateman whilst these two jokers were left out of the England team and now miraculously fit and ready to play

With or without Bateman we’re gonna get tonked.

Can;t see anything other than this, unfortunately. I know we'll give it a right go, but can't see it being anywhere near enough.

Your comment is totally cynical but sadly true.

Bryne looks to be playing with an injury at the minute so Clark in.

We have to get Hastings back in the halves, as much as Ive thought Hanley has struggled on the wing, would like to see him in his preferred position.

Smith looks like he needs to drop down to the bench.

Think this side could keep it relatively close.

Hastings needs to play in his normal position. Hanley probably needs a run at fullback. By now my expectations have been dialled back to nil so I hope that we can cut him some slack. He is going to make mistakes at this point in his development but I can guarantee that more senior players will do much worse. The issue will be his ability to compete against some big Saints players who are adept at picking the pockets of more established players. Let him get things wrong without slaughtering him for it.
