SQUAD NAMED FOR CHALLENGE CUP SEMI FINAL AGAINST WIGAN

Saints boss Kristian Woolf has named his 21 man squad ahead of Saturday's Betfred Challenge Cup Semi Final against rivals Wigan Warriors at Elland Road, kick off 2:30pm.

The big news is that Jonny Lomax is included alongside Regan Grace who comes in for the injured Will Hopoate.

Lomax was a doubt after leaving the field early against Salford, but Woolf confirmed on Tuesday he was “coming along really well” and a late decision will be made on whether both he and Grace, who is also a doubt, will feature on Saturday.

Curtis Sironen and Konrad Hurrell also return after serving their bans. Jake Wingfield is another to feature again after recovering from a slight shoulder injury picked up against Castleford. Sam Royle, Danny Hill and Jumah Sambou drop out.

Saturday’s match is live on BBC One, but you can follow all the updates in our Match Centre here and our social media accounts.

Heh! I was thinking just the same! Run at Lomax every time, and the match will last forever with all the hold-ups!
