Baring in mind i've not seen anything of Brierly... I think i'll make my descion after pre season but for now this would be my idea 17

1. Pownall
2. Clay
3. Maden
4. Gardner
5. Mcgilveray
6. Riddy
7. Mcnally
8. Parker
9. Duffy
10. Thornley (If resigned)
11. Goulden
12. Taylor
13. Beswick

14. Biibey
15. Nico
16. Gallagher
17. Hopkins

I think Brierly will be a good player but McNally is an awesome talent and Pownall looked good for the reserves. I feel this year with a fully fit squad we can really pose a threat

No littler ??? And dont think we will see thornley this year but still hope i suppose !!

Sh!t yeah forgot about Litler I'd play him instead of Gardner but I feel a couple of Duals would be helpful prefferably a second row/centre

FB-clay.
Ws-Maden,macgillvry.
Cs-gardner, gerrard.
HBs-Ridyard,Mcnally.
PFs-Bibey,Parker.
H-Beswick.
SR-Littler,Goulden.
LF-taylor.
Subs.
Hopkins.
Thornley if re-signs,Gallagher if he doesn't.
Duffy
Brierley.

What position is gerrard?.

Gerrard a centre/Second row and Clay is not a full back, very good finisher and gets through some work however you have Pownall who has been class for the 23's I think he's ready to step up

Gerrard would be my other centre then.
Donlan was a centre but ended up a class full back ,although i wouldn't argue with giving pownall a run.

Here we are , Charlies Choice.


1.Pownall-Time he got a chance .
2.Clay -hopefully show what he can do.
3.Littler .
4.Gardner
5.Maden
6.Ridyard.
7.McNally
8.Parker.
9.Beswick.
10.Bibey -hope hes fit ?
11.Goulden.
12.Hopkins -again must show what he can do .
13 .Taylor.

subs.14 .Duffy .
15.Brierley.
16.Gerrard.
17.Gallagher , or a D-R.

Well I would definately play Brierley from the off.

I hear he is a great prospect. Wait and see. This lad has a point to prove.

exactly "you hear" We will see how he does in the friendlies

Just read the Reporter about the Shaw Cup on Saturday. It says Penky is playing after recently being released by Fax. Not seen it anywhere else. Anybody know if its right?
