I think Chester will go with kershaw on the wing. He’s not played Hampshire on wing in any friendly. We also not played lyne with tupou as a combo.

Suspect Chester known jjb was unwell for sometime so could have tried different wing centre combos if need be.

I can’t understand the Atkins signing when we already had trundle contracted as back up.

Hampshire will play full back unless miller not fit where he will revert to 6 with jowitt at 1.

Plenty of options in the backs which is a positive.

Interesting to see the back row choice (ashurst westerman i suspect are first choice with Pitts /batch n kirmo fighting it out for right edge).

Prop situation is desperate

I'm not bagging the lad, he's filled in and done a decent job and I think he can be a good SL winger. He's just not a safe pair of hands to be starting at the minute for me and he's done nothing to change my mind in the preseason.

Can't seem to see where he's posted on the subject. You seem however to be agreeing with me quite a lot these days, something that does nothing for mine or anyone elses credibility.

All depends for me on Miller's fitness

Jowitt
Johnstone
Tupou
Lyne
Atkins
Hampshire
Brough
Kopzcak
J Wood
Gwaze
Ashurst
Tanginoa
Westerman

K Wood (off the bench against a tiring defence)
Navarette
Pitts (could do a job at prop if needed)
Tangata/Batchelor/Kirmond/Arona (whichever one is fittest)

To be honest Milky has had no game time so I think I'd leave him out even if he is fit but you could slot him in at 6 and either move Hampshire to FB or leave him out

It’s the first time I’ve agreed with you this year vastman in fairness

When you make a sensible post which isn’t vindictive or childish and I agree with it.....
I am more than happy to positively endorse said comments

Chessie said milky would be fit on trin tv
