Sadly I expect that only the diehards will turn out for this game and would not be surprised to see a three figure crowd, which would be a disappointment all round.

What can you expect when one of the teams involved makes no mention of the match on its official website. How can they expect spectators to turn up when they show no enthusiasm for the match themselves?

With the exception of Walker, it seems to me to be the strongest squad we can put out if it is true that Reittie and Ainscough are injured.

Not expecting too much from Hitchcox as it is early for his return but it is good to see him on the squad!

Apologies to BB! Your post appeared as l was posting - didn't realise that Walker was injured!

Looking back at the Rochdale match didn't Maher have black tape round his facing and nose possibly suggesting he as a broken nose as well.

Correct Cas would pull their lads out so as not to be cup tied, apart from Hitcock who presuming he is in final 17 then he will be cup tied mystified about this.

WOW what's happening it's not sunday morning yet, but I noticed it's the RFL that's released them and not the club.

That will be because it is the Cup. The RFL seems to be slow in releasing squads for Championship and C1 but not SL, so don't expect any improvement by them in the near future.

Sport, amongst other things, is a dream-world offering escape from harsh reality and the disturbing prospect of change.

From the squad it looks like Hitchcox will play, can't see the failed experiment of Brev at centre and Hallett on wing happening again;

Scott

Hayward

Smeaton

Halle

Hitch Cox

Southernwood 

Brambani

Gledhill

Leak

Rowe

Day

Farrell

Manning

Davey

Lillycrop

Brown 

Chandler/Brev

Picks itself out of that squad. But who else IS fit? Cowling, O'Sullivan,  Hill obviously...they need a game soon. Can't see that squad failing 3 times on the bounce......34-18 to us.
