| Come the start of the season it is likely that the following players whom will all be hoping to be playing regular first grade this year will all be sat outside of the first choice 17:
Vinnie Anderson
Chris Riley
Kevin Penny
Simon Grix
John Clarke
Tyrone McCarthy
Whilst the following couple have played a fair bit of first team football and are probably looking to kick on and be playing quite a few first team games:
Matty Blythe
Lee Mitchell
I know its been said many times before but our squad with first team experience and aspirations is as deep, if not deeper, than any other in the league.

| With my maths that gives us a squad of 25, wich you would probably find is about the same as every other sl teams playing roster.

Agreed. We have that depth after the 17. Plenty of competition for positions. Smith's had a full pre-season and his full focus is with us afer resigning from England duty. Should make for an exciting upcoming season from a Wire point of view.

| On that premise, what do you perceive to be Smith's first choice 17?

I've given team numbers rather than squad numbers for this.
1 Mathers
2 Hicks
3 Bridge
4 King
5 Atkins
6 Briers
7 Myler
8 Morley
9 Monaghan
10 Carvell
11 Anderson L
12 Westwood
13 Harrison
14 Higham
15 Cooper
16 Wood
17 Solomona
As already said, plenty of experience outside the 17 as well. I would like to see Kev Penny really push for the no 2 shirt on the basis that Hicks is likey to leave at the end of the season and McCarthy/Grix to overtake Vinnie in the pecking order for a back row bench spot.

24554.jpg The Wire - It's Time To Believe
When things go wrong, as they sometimes will.
When the road you're trudging seems all up hill,
When the funds are low, and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest if you must, but don't you quit.
Life is queer with the twists and turns,
AS everyone of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about,
When he might have won had he stuck it out:
Don't give up through the pace seems slow.
You may succeed with another blow.
Success is failure turned inside out,
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems so far;
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit,
It's when things seem worse,
that you must not quit.
NOW THE WIRE!:24554.jpg |

| Sorry but for me Matty Blythe & Lee Mitchell are in no way good enough (yet)
not if we are to push on, if the team is bad enough to be able to fit these two in at the moment, then we should expect yet anouther average season

Pick me any other team's 24th and 25th squad members (not numbers but in order of likely selection) who have as much 1st team experience as these two.

doesn't make them good players, just meens we had no one better at the time, they were given a chance and apart from one or two nice bits of play they have not excelled at all when given a chance, just my oppinion you understand

lunt could easily be starting 9 or drew, apinwall could easily be starting winger or macgillvary, mcnally could easily played 6, 7 or 9, graham horne could play centres or second row as could lolesi, lawrence can play fullback or wing or centre, patrick can play second row or centre..i think hudds have an excellent squad this yr, its a good job reserves cant just be anyone or they would walmk that.
