Get in!

Frankie and Bennys?

Couldn't care less if they do or don't play.

I want to beat them with no excuses.

They will both play

Not if they put EGP's in which looks likely atm.

I can't resist the urge to ask where they've been 'sited'?

Surely Saints will want them both to attend a hearing in the hope that they will be let off with just a caution or a fine?

Wana bet?

Doesn't matter if they do or not, the only huge threat is Roby.

no wellens likely makes them better?

Not really, wellens has been brilliant the last 2 games they have played, he's lost a lot of pace but positionally he's arguably still the best full back in SL, and he still pops up with the odd try. They are better with him than without him.

I can't see why either would take the early guilty plea with it being a derby game next up.

Both will take the risk of a hearing and I'm sure at least one and probably both will get off.

Out of interest, what is the difference between Lauaki's Grade C offence of a "Dangerous tackle – places in a dangerous position" but didn't land in a dangerous position, and Laffranchi's Grade B offence, "Places in a dangerous position and reaches the ground in a dangerous position".

How is a tackle that lands a player in a dangerous position not as bad as one that doesn't?

IMO Wellens will get off and Laffrinchi will get one match

Makinson in at FB and Puletua in to replace Laffranchi. Simples. I like Makinson, he provides a lot more pace obviously but whether his positional play is upto scratch I don't know. His support play is certainly good as shown in corresponding fixture last season. Should be interesting
