Why is Tadulala not in the squad?
It's been a while since Semi hasn't made it in.

| Quote: Terry Monster "I hope Halley isnt dropped to the wing.'"
given squad its pretty much a choice between halley and platt for wing spot. sykes was absolutely shocking on wing in world cup. if we dropped deacon, would go with sykes SO, halley wing,menzies and platt FB ( have slightly more confidence in him there than on wing. If deacon plays would go sykes FB, menzies and halley wing.
think we need to do something to strengthen defence on sykes, sheriffe side. so wouldnt play sykes at no matter what. put menzies there and use sykes at either SO or FB or drop him entirely.
Thinking about it Platt might go allright alongside nero who would cover some of his defensive lapses. |

Scruton doesn't deserve to be dropped to the bench and you've dropped Worrincy: Something you criticized me for earlier.
Platt
Sheriffe
Menzies
Nero
Halley
Sykes
Jeffries
Lynch
Newton
Scruton
Langley
Burgess
Donaldson
Godwin
Kopzcak
Crossley
Whitehead |

I can't actually see Worrincy being dropped though, this is the realistic squad imo:
Halley
Platt
Nero
Sykes
Sheriffe
Jeffries
Deacon
Lynch
Newton
Scruton
Menzies
Burgess
Langley
Godwin
Kopzcak
Worrincy
Whitehead/Donaldson
As much as i'd like 2 props on bench and Crossley to get a shot it wont happen.

Didn't remember that one. Swap Koppy for Kopzcak then. I wonder why Koppy isn't there though, I hope it's a 1 week injury, he's been going well and putting lots of effort in. When Macca said he'd drop underperformers I fear he may have just dropped Koppy for the sake of it.

that would be difficult wouldnt it
2nd point maybe he's dropped least experienced of our regular props in order to give crossley a shot at first team  |

Yeah I know Ive dropped Scruton to the bench, because I wanted to start with our best props and they are Lynch and Burgess, I also wanted 2 props on the bench, Scruton and Crossley. Ive also typed Donaldson when I meant to type Whitehead.
It wasn't me that criticised you for dropping Worrincy earlier, Ive only just turned PC on, however, you criticised me for it yesterday evening. I just think he's a bit flat latley, the tries gloss over a some poor things for some people.
Play and Worrincy to miss for me
Halley. Sykes. Menzies. Nero. Sheriffe. Jeffries. Deacon. Lynch. Newton. Burgess. Langley. Cook. Donaldson. Subs. Crossley. Whitehead. Scruton. Godwin.

That's a fair shout but Deacon deserves to be dropped. Deacon out, Platt in for me. Then either Platt at FB, Halley on wing or vice versa. then sykes at 6. |

The team I'd like to see from that squad:
Halley
Sheriffe
Menzies
Nero
Platt
Donaldson
Jeffries
Scruton
Newton
Lynch
Worrincy
Burgess
Langley
SUBS
Godwin
Whitehead
Crossley
Cook
However I don't expect that will happen.
The bottom line for me is that McNamara said he would be looking to leave out a couple of under performers this week. In my opinion, you can't include Tadulala & Kopczak as under performers (certainly not in comparison to quite a few others), so perhaps they aren't in due to fitness/injury. If you include Cook as one (and I would), there really should be another "under performer" left out. Sadly, I will be very surprised if that's the case.
