Regardless of all this carry on it's still better for these players to be playing and the games to be going ahead. Having all players sit out for so many months then starting up again next year going in cold poses it's own problems.

Not seen the side yet, just a sarcastic guess.

Scrapping the lot would be a disaster for the sport.

We’ve just got to get on with it the best we can and I for one sm looking forward to the game.

Konrad can't be fit; otherwise he'd be starting.

Could see hurrell being thrown in the pack tonight then with that team, was confident earlier but now I’m hopeless with ferres making the team, so much for having a great crop of youngsters to blood in a no relegation season!

Doing a shift at prop.

As an aside, hats off to tony Smith's coaching philosophy
