A week off with the CC and hopefully it’s time for the lads playing poor to reflect and earn their stripes more and more.

Agar expects at least Gale, Eastmond and A Sutcliffe to be back in contention for this one. It’s going to be an interesting squad to look at when it comes to game day.

Myler and Tetevano will be back the week after, aswell as Newman by the sounds of things.

Broadbent

Hurrell won't be dropped will he?

Eastmond, Gale
Mik, Leeming, Prior

King, Dwyer, Thompson, Walters.

I'd like to see Alex Sutcliffe given a go in the back row this season during games to see how he goes there as he will be struggling to get into the starting centre position with Newman, Broadbent ,Koni and Liam Sutcliffe when all are fit

He looks like a back rower to me and we need to find out just how good he is as at SL level whilst playing there

There’s probably only Zane missing from the first choice starting team. You could make a case for Newman too probably, but think he’d have to unseat one of Sutcliffe or Hurrell not just walk straight back in.

Walker, Smith?

Its incredible how some fans make stuff up isnt it? I feel fairly confident Walker, Newman, Lui, Smith, Tetevano, Myler and possibly Holroyd all make a 17 if everyone is fully fit.

But yeah only Tetevano missing as Batley says. Hilarious. I mean come on lets at least get some reality here.

What a joke.

That team SHOULD be strong enough to get the win.

Can you read? I said STARTING TEAM...

So Lui, Walker or Myler and Newman wouldnt start? Your having a laugh kid.

Yep a few more to come back in but aside from Tetevano, probably no real significant upgrades... Myler will displace Broadbent, Smith might displace Thompson... Newman will have to do well because the club clearly think L Sutcliffe is amazing.

I still have a pet theory of developing Newman as a right centre anyway...

We should have enough to win this one with the extra week to rest some bodies.

Thats what i would go with.

Once Newman is fully fit play him at right centre and move Hurrell to 13.We will inject some pace at centre.

Koni wouldnt last 10 mins as a 13.
