I too have been disappointed with our pivots this year, but to be fair to them, it is extremely hard to do anything behind a pack which is beaten so convincingly for 80 minutes. The fact Fifita is the best on the pitch, even playing on one leg, shows just how poor the rest of them are at the minute. We are far too one dimensional and easy to defend against. Why do we insist on DB kicking at the end of every set when we have Rocky, Miller and Max in the squad?

Would need to be announced today as 19 man squad for Saints has to be posted by noon today.

Same squad as 2 weeks ago with kirmond coming in for Pauli so probably not

Kopczak is back in for Crowther as well.

Looking at what players may be available on the market for Chester there doesn't appear to be many....

Callum Bustin (Prop, Bulls) 6ft 2, 18 stone ...end of contract, available? great video highlights.
Will Maher (Prop, Tigers) 6ft 5, 18 stone...rumours going to KR?
Oliver Roberts (S.Row) 6 ft 4, 17 stone....available?

Hope he has a focus on the ageing pack...

It doesn't bother Chester that, it seems the older the better
