Blythe didn't make the wire 17 yesterday so he should be available for us on Sunday.

Think he might edge the bench spot then though it will be interesting to see whether Littler goes back in to the second row or not.

Well if Rhys and Matty are available in my view Basil would be mad not to start with them. He is not mad so he will.

Stu will go back in the pack. AJ definately will be on the bench. I have always rated him and I now make it 13 League games 2 NRC 1 playoff and 1 Grand Final and then ? Well whatever this is one helluva side and Arthur Thomas is responsible.

AJ doesnt deserve dropping I think he,ll be on the bench as I suspect Ian ill play Blythe if available.

Personally replace Maden with Evans, we need pace against them. Hopkins, Nash, Govin, Blythe/Higson/Maden on bench

Donlan
Evans, Mc Gilvary
Littler, Nanyn (Higson)
Ridyard, Ellis
Mills, Hill
Duffy
Thornley, Taylor, Goulden

I am even tempted to miss out Nanyn whilst he fully recovers.

I think that's the big question Mo as I think Higson should retain his place, especially with the quality of his defence last week when considering he'll be coming up against Yere this week.

If Mick Nanyn is not fully fit then keep him rested untill we really need him. We have the comfy position of having a squad that is firing on all cyliders at the mo so why put unfit players back in when not essential. I'm sure IM will know his best and fitest starting 13 so I am feeling very confident.

I would also be tempted to leave Nanyn out.

If Nanyns out put blythe in at centre and Evans on the Bench............... Higson deserves to start at centre after last week

Higson is 18th man.

Thats unfair I feel for him if true.

I`d have played AJ he was excellent v the Cats. Let`s hope the DR players have good games.

Its a long season.

its also good we have strength in depth that we can rest players who've just had exellent games against SL opposition.

I would hate for us to run out of steam come the playoffs because we never rested our own players when we had the chance.

Hopkins played for the reserves today I would ezpect Nash to drop to the bench and Littler to return to the back row to open up a centre spot for Nanyn/Blythe/Evans.

Pity whoever he puts against the brick wall that is Yere
