I am really excited about this match and believe we can progress to the GF. If JJB and Delaney are not fit I would bring in a couple of the young guns, Singleton being one and tell them to tackle everything above the grass. I would not play the pies with any crocked players.

I cannot see shudders getting past the Wire, due to their serial winging!!

Yep, Singo and Clarkson in for JJB and Delaney if needed, hoping maybe Delaney will be fit though.

Big game needed from Achurch - needs to prove he has a future in this team.

People were very OTT over his try other week, he has some room to go.



I know he knocked on with a simple carry against Saints, but he made a couple of hearty drives. Bumped Wilkin off.....but then again who didn't?

Agreed, he did had an alright spell on Friday, but he needs to move up to the next level against Wigan.



Singleton is the other obvious man to step up. Clarkson can be brilliant on his day but not often enough. This season he has had game where he has hit some brilliant lines and caused some damage, he need to be doing that on Friday if JJB and/or Delaney pull out.



Anyhow I think JJB and Delaney will be fit.

T'would be nice but I can't see it myself.

JJB just possibly after a week's rest (as he was saying he wanted to go back on against Saints) but not Delaney, he was strapped-up anyway before they'd even kicked-off.

Tomkins departure expected to be announced at 3pm. I hope and pray we can absolutely ruin his night on Friday and give him a right good old Yorkshire sending off!



It would be the "cherry" on the cake!

JJB was running up and down the touchline in the second half, obviously that doesn't mean to can handle the impact, but the Rhinos medical staff have worked miracles this year already.



Is Delaney injury a leg injury? He was walking alright after the game if so. If its upper body then nothing will stop him taking to the field. Hull away he looked to be playing with broken bones but still put in an outstanding shift.

Groin injury

As others say, I think if the medical staff say JJB and/or Delaney are fit to play, they should play.



Otherwise I'd bring in Singleton first and Clarkson if both are out. Although I'd be tempted to consider putting Singleton in ahead of Achurch anyway.

Ah that explains why he didn't have any leg support on. He had both groins operated on in pre season. Obviously carried the injury in the last playoff series.

If JJB/Delaney are ok, I would deffo run out with the back spine of JJB/Frog/Ablett. Instead of the third prop at loose. Bails/Kirke hit the ground running from the bench, so if he and co can replicate that again happy days.
