Assuming BJB is out who would be the best replacement. MCB is the obvious choice but what about giving Max a run on the wing. He is fast enough and can take a high ball. He deserves a first team chance after his efforts last season but I can't see him being selected at full back with Grix looking in good form.

I'm sure he'd do a job but I'd rather have someone used to playing there.
So either Arundel or Gibson in centre with Tupou on wing or MCB or Gibson on the wing.

put a young kid in - this is a loss concentrate on Salford the week after

That's the spirit!
All that positivity oozing from you is inspirational!
A 'young kid'? So MCB at 23 is knocking on?
Have you seen how ordinary Saints have been playing?
Can't write any games off and Fridays is definitely one we can pinch.

BJB can't be out

because that would mean he misses at least the same number of games as the dingbat that high shot him

he can still play with one eyebrow and loose teeth can't he, otherwise he'll make the disciplinary system look ridiculous.....ummm

You'd think so but history shows we have a knack of getting thrashed in games we think we can pinch and our record there is not good tbf.

No Matty Smith, no Luke Douglas, my only worry is that Wilkin will ref the game!

Give Judah Mazzive a game.

MCB in for BJB if injured...pace to burn and knows where the try line is....just like BJB.

Judah or Max for me.

MCB didnt do himself any justice in the friendlies

For a televised game which I don't think we're expected to win I'd like to see us put Massive on the wing and Jowitt at full back. Would also like to see Crowther and Batchelor and even Annakin get some TV exposure.

Wouldn't be surprised to see Tupou moved to the wing and Arundal come in at centre.
