Is that half-back pairing a very subtle 2 fingers to the RFL?

I forgot about Harvey I think Hyde could play 7 with Smith on the bench - BJ to miss out this week ...

looks good

I wouldn't put Harvey in yet, unproven
And if you put Lee back to 13 you are going to have to drop a back rower that played really well
If Hyde fit he playes at 6 but if not

6 Smith
7 Lee
9a Rinaldi
9b Davey

Is Amor available this week?

Good call!

Stick with same team except.

Armor for spiers.

Harvey for Hyde ( only if Hyde is injured).

Smith surely needs a match in reserves to blow off rust. Harvey should be match fit.

correct why change a winning team

I agree not to change a winning side but Spiers (although good effort) is not a prop and we need that extra prop in ARMOR.

The only reason i suggest Harvey as opposed to Smith is due to the fact that HARVEY allbeit in the reserves will have some game time under his belt whereas Smith could do with getting rid of his first contact game in a while in reserves.

But Whoever plays full support on the day and hopefully we keep the same style of play at france.

So smith not to play cos he hasn't but Amor to play because hes a prop and he hasn't played a game yet am I missing something

Amor played in a couple of leed's friendlies whereas Smith due to his visa issues hasn't. That is the difference.

As above RW&B

Isn't Harvey suppose to have a good kicking game? If so, i'd select him over Smith
