    Not often a side includes all the numbers 1 through to 13 in a matchday squad!

    (I know our 7 will likely miss the cut to 17, but impressive nonetheless)

    Did anyone see the club photo of them suited up with shiny brown shoes, wonder why Coote wore his shoes without any socks on.
    I seen that the scruffy get, should've photo shopped him a pair.

    Not that it matters one bit but Coote is wearing socks in the photo.

    Looking at it close I can see bare shins and ankles, is he wearing black short ankle socks just appearing above his shoes.

    Nice to see Luke Douglas on that photo, with Lees possibly in a longer recovery that takes him out of the season, I wonder if the live salary cap will allow Luke to come back into the playing squad.

    Not sure if we’ll need him. Walmsley, Thompson, Amor, LMS and Ashworth are all prop options ahead of Douglas.
    Forwards win games. The backs decide by how much.

    I think it would breach the rules of the cap to have Douglas back.

    Let's hope the boys can pull it off. I always think of the CC as a good test for a sides mental robustness.

    Paulo will probably get a game but i would prefer Bentley. Bentley is versatile and has earned it in my opinion. A Wembley shirt can be a once in a lifetime thing. If Paulo gets one i hope he pulls his finger out.

    I would have thought we have a good part of the pack a little bit under cooked. Just hope they have put the work in. Its going to be a hot un.

    It is nice to see him in the Photo and a member of the travelling party; but the way our forwards are playing now, I don't think we need him.

    Paolo, Coote and Naiqama were brought in for their experience and in Paolo and Coote for their composure under pressure. I can't see Paolo not playing if he's fit. He works well with Knowles and as Knowles hasn't played for a while he'll become even more important.

    Bentley is young and will get more chances further down the line.

    Stuff like that really annoys me. It's shabby. If I had a photo due to be taken wearing a suit, I would be wearing normal socks. It isn't difficult

    Whilst I can see your point of view, I couldn't care less, he could turn up in a Mankini for the photoshoot for all I care, it's what he does in the 80 minutes at Wembley and taking home the Trophy that counts.

    To be fair to Coote this is the current fashion trend at the moment. Short pants with socks that fit inside your shoe but not visible. Not that I’m down with the current fashion trends and I’m always a sock kind of guy!

    Yeah you do see it a bit from the young lot.

    It looks ridiculous.

    He should've been sent to Tesco for some proper socks.

    We’ve got to have James Bentley on the bench, for me. All the talk has been about Blake Austin not playing and his fitness but it seems to have gone a little unnoticed that Lachlan Coote and James Roby haven’t played for weeks and as someone has pointed out, Wembley and the Challenge Cup Final is unforgiving on players who aren’t 100% and if either aren’t, we need to address that and have a versatile player like Bentley on the bench in case of any issues.

    Roby will be fine its Coote who could be our biggest worry when he gets clattered catching those high balls, we probably need to cover a possibly change at half back and Paulo is capable of doing that. We also need a high completion rate and although Bentley has been putting in some good performances he does drop a fair bit of ball at times, Paulo plays a tighter game and gets that bench spot for me.

    I still think Austin will play, not that it should worry is to much.
    However, it makes a mockery out of announcing a squad when you can seemingly just change it anyway.
    What are the rules regarding this?
