There's a blast from the past!!

Home town boy Bentham is the ref.

Trumps the offer of the Rhinos one of 'some' of it going to JP's charity. Unsurprisingly (to some of you) I like it.

Delaney and Golding in for Achurch and Sutcliffe in the named 19. Can only imagine Achurch has a knock given that it's him not Walters who's dropping out.

Is there a problem with Zak? I.e. Golding in the 19.

Joel Monaghan missing for Wire is a big bonus for us

From what I've seen of him this season I'm not sure it is.

If Atkins and Bridge are both fit having not played last week, I'd imagine they both come back into the centres in place of Currie and Monaghan. Even given the obvious deficiencies in Atkins' game, that's still an upgrade.



With Ratchford at full-back and Wheeler/O'Brien in the halves, that gives them plenty of weapons.

Depends on which Atkins decides to turn up.



If its the laissez faire, coasting, not getting his hands dirty Atkins then great.



If its the chip on the shoulder, raise the game against Leeds performance then maybe not. He truly is a Jekyll and Hyde player, the ultimate flat track bully.



Agree on Ratchford, he's the key.

Hopefully it's just Atkins in for Monaghan. I don't rate GOB or Wheeler. Bridge looked really good in the halves towards the end of last season. I've also noticed Westwood hasn't done 80 mins in the last two. If he doesn't do that this week, he can't be fit, as they can't prefer Laithwaite. He does nothing. Philbin deserved a crack last week, but I can't see him starting this week.

Yes, he hasn't been great so far but always seems to have a good game against us in attack and defence.

I was impressed with the brief glimpse we had of Philbin.

Re Monagahan I find it hard to believe that the Wolves are stronger without him but then I don't see them/him every week.

A fully fit Ratchord has to be a bonus for them.
