| What I want -
Lomax, Swift, Percival, Turner, Makinson
Fages, Walsh
Walmsley, ROby, Amor
Greenwood, Vea
Wilkin
Tasi, Savelio, LMS/Thompson, Burns
(I'd actually consider dropping Walsh for Wilkin and cementing THompsn in the 17, but hopefully he'll start the season back to somewhere near his old self)
What I think KC will go with
Owens
Swift, Percival, Peuroux, Makinson
Fages, Walsh
Walmsley, ROby, Amor
Wilkin, LMS
Turner
Vea, Tasi, Greenwood, Richards

| Owens is a shoe in for obvious reasons and there's no way that KC would leave Savelio out of a bench spot.

And Walsh if he doesn't improve? Could we end up with SMD, Lomax, Burns and Walsh all outside the 17? Enough cap spend there to sign a proper player.

Lomax and SMD being injured for the start of the season?

Fair enough, if that's the case. I thought it sounded like something more cloak and dagger was being suggested.

I like cloak and dagger, a bit of mystery and controversy. I'll work on a rumour

How would that free up cap space ? they all still need to be paid.

| Injuries will play large part in how our season goes. We've seemed to have gone for depth over quality in our recruitment but I really fear for us if big Alex or Robes get injured.
I think having Vea injury free this year will definitely improve our pack. He's been very good in the games he's played. I'd play LMS in the other 2nd row with Wilkin at 13.

| I think if you start with Tasi and Amor, then you have to be looking at the second row to provide that punch.
Vea gives us this in spades and LMS can do it too.
We'll see as the season goes on, but I think the pack is more than capable
Tasi Roby Amor
Vea LMS
Wilkin
With Walmsley, Savelio, Greenwood and (another forward or Fages) on the bench.
That is a large pack.
Also as we seem to be insistant on running with a large bench and no one to cover Roby, then I would be looking to rest Roby 5 mins either half of half time, push Wilkin up to dummy half.
He can tackle, he can pass a ball. I think he played hooker earlier in his career and it would be similar to what Leeds did on occasions with Sinfield.
As for the backs assuming they are all fit
Lomax Makinson Turner Pervical Swift (Burns/Fages) Walsh
