Not so much low as out of stock :exc:
What sort of outback Australian gets sunstroke in Wigan in March?

:D

wonder if we could get anyone on loan at short notice? There's a young lad at Salford, name of Robinson, who might be able to help out.
Alternatively, there's a young lad called Lam around the place somewhere...

Do try and keep up, Ian, I posted that yesterday (in the "Good Luck, Andy" thread). :wink:

Seriously though, looking at that squad, who's gonna play where?
Does the fact that he's only picked 16 players mean we can add more, or is that really the total of fit players we've got left.
AFAIK, none of those has ever played stand off, or loose forward.
Might be tempted to play Wild at 13, with Aspi at centre and Colborn wing.

personally i think its going to be a really big task ahead of us on monday, hull rested about five good players when they played london, i know saints wasnt a game where we could rest anybody but we've lost seven players and faz, so thats eight players that we've lost from our already small/young squad

Personally i think Mrs Carney that we now more than ever need to go in to the market to try to srengthen our squad.

I think we should try to get brian Fletcher from Souths using a transfer fee as bargaining power, we should also make a move for DJAMEAL FAKIR from UTC.

They would both add strength and size and experience to our pack.

We shall see though.
