Here is my prediction for the team for challenge cup game:

1.Briscoe
2.Hodgeson
3.Wild
4.Johnson
5.Aspinwall
6.O'Neil
7.Robinson
8.Bibey
9.M.Smith
10.Sculthorpe
11.Newton
12.Tickle
13.O'Loughlin

14.Farrell
15.Lam
16.Radlinski
17.O'Conner

Well that is what i think. Start with a mix of young and older and then bring in the more established players towards the end to give them a bit of a run out. Although i would (if they are fit) like to see the 4 on the bench start but i dont think that it will happen.

What do you all think.

Would also like to see what the training pitch will be like for HSC these next 2 weeks i bet all the players will come out of the woodwork for that one i know they would at my local team.

if raper plays that team, i think its ridiculous for us to pay full price to watch the game, which wont be a contest anyway!

just because they are in our squad, yes they deserve to play, but v an amateur team we shoul at least get to watch our stars

also consider alot of our lads havent had a run out yet, and i dont fancy us goign to castleford without having at least one run out, cause we will get beat about @ cas!

id hope to see something like this:

1. radlinski
2. briscoe
3. hodgson
4. johnson
5. ainscough
6. oneill
7. lam
8. sculthorpe
9. newton
10. bibey
11. wild
12. tickle
13. o'loughlin

14. faz
15. dallas
16. oconnor
17. aspinwall

Have to say I prefer the look of your team AJ - not just because if a certain Ginger FullBack doesn't appear when I've made the effort to come see him Mr Raper will have a very annoyed and frustrated primary schoolteacher to deal with!! - but because I agree we need to blow away the cobwebs before we go to Cas.

The reason given for the non appearence of said GFB,Mick Cas and Jamie Ainscough on Wednesday left me a bit worried - 'a specialist said to give them another week' - hope its just Captain Paranoia whispering in me ear and a quote I've completely mis read!

Thank you to whoever made it a Sunday ko!

I just cannot imagine Kris on the bench for a competitive match. If he is fit he'll play.

I think Faz and Lam will start as I think they'll need a good 60 minutes at least after the 7s.

Apart from that wouldn't be surprised to see Mark Smith start with Newton on the bench especially after Mark had a cracking game on Wednesday.

Don't think he'll have a side too under strength but one or two changes may happen. Dallas and Craig Smith should be back as well.
