Carney and Dallas good enough to get in the Saints team?Either could displace Gardner for me but neither are as good as Darren Albert.DA can play full back and centre as well BC and BD are wingers period.
Come to think of it I can't think of many Leeds players that would get in the Saints side.Bai for Gardener,Senior for Talau,Lauititi for Gilmour and possibly Sinfield for Hooper.
Bailey, Ward and Burrow would replace Fozzard, Edmonson and Long too.

I would take Lyon over Talau, Senior, Walker and obviously Wild and Aspinwall. I think that Dallas would be close on Bai, however on this season's form I would take Bai over Carney.

Dallas at Prop? lol - it seems like it sometimes doesn't it!

I can see Saturday night being painful viewing, I will watch it before I go to work if I can. As long as we are not nilled and are within 10 points I won't be too disappointed. Considering we've lost to Huddersfield (twice), London (twice), Wakefield and scraped wins over UTC and Widnes, I'll take whatever we can get :(

Bailey would be close to displacing Anderson,Ward- Tell me you're joking,Burrow can't hold a candle to Longy (we'll see who plays in test matches) and as for Ellis he would only get in at centre instead of Talau but not in front of Senior.
Bailey is miles better than Fozzard and a lot younger too. To some extent I take your point about Long/Burrows, but Burrows is about 8 years younger.

Ward is in the GB squad - Edmonson isn't.

And if you think Gilmour or Wilkin can hold out Ellis, then it's you that's joking, my friend.

Paul Anderson,Edmondson and maybe even Mason are better than Ward
I'm not a big fan of Ward personally, but he starts every week for Leeds. And Barrie Mac is better than those 3!!.
Ellis wouldn't get in before Vinnie Anderson.
This is a closer call than you think.

Also, don't forget Saints are 4 points behind Leeds, and that's with 2 unbelieveably lucky wins against the Wolves.
