Preview
Prop Ryan O’Hara is back in the Crusaders RL squad after a two–game absence, but coach Brian Noble may opt to name an unchanged side from the one that beat Castleford Tigers last weekend. Crusaders are in touching distance of a play–off spot and have a game in hand on their rivals. Gareth Thomas (groin) is still out, as is Michael Witt.
Playmaker Daniel Holdsworth misses out for Salford City Reds after opting for season-ending shoulder surgery, but Willie Talau may be back after a five–game absence with a knee injury.
