Quote TimmySmith="TimmySmith"Personally don't think Fev have there best side out, think they'll still go well but not as worried as I was earlier in the week (lol). Key players missing in Pickersgill, Leilua and Chisholm, obviously nobody knows how Leilua will go but I've had the pleasure of watching a lot of Pickersgill and Chisholm, they'll be missed.'"
Chisholm and Connor Jones, who has Covid, are the two most important players missing for Fev, as you say Leilua hasn't arrived yet. Chisholm when on song provides the spark that we don't always have when he's missing. We'll probably move Hall to full back for Pickersgill and play a back row at centre.
We were reasonably competitive in the first half against Leeds last week, losing 12-6 until they scored just before the hooter, though we were playing downhill.
We didn't go so well against their fringe players up the slope in the second half but we had taken off Koppy, Lockwood, Sene-Lefao and Moors, and as a group our replacement middles in particular are quite small. We started to get on top when those 4 came back on.
