Is he actually training ?

He's on the photos released last week during the group training session. It was only a "Still" so maybe he was just chatting alongside Arona??

Gigot would be cover for one or two back positions for your side, I'd have thought?
It will be interesting to see how teams go with what would be fully fit (or near to it as possible) squad. Looking forward to some competitive games in the opening weeks.

For me the younger lads should play if they are fit as anybody else Alex,Jordan and especially Max , I think we overlook Max far too much as he's improving all the time but we'll see what formation Chris decides on next week can't wait.

I think he needs to find his strongest settled squad ASAP, yes we need to try the younger players at times, but while ever we’re in the CC, we need to get the strongest team on the pitch. I think the top 5/6 teams will be chasing the grand final, let Trinity chase the CC.

Did Hampshire return to training?

My thoughts exactly.

Well I wouldn't be upset if Navarette was called over Tangata. Nice position to be in!

It is clear from today’s game that under the current rules you need to be very fit and there is no place for the less agile forwards.

Or half hearted half ft players, shame it’s not the cup game next week , see macnamara has worked his usual magic

Before lockdown les cats were on a role and saints were wobbling , break came good for saints I’d say and not so for the dragons

My guess how team would be

Walker
Johnstone
Tupou
Lyne
Kay
Miller
Jowitt
Kopczak
K.Wood
Navarette
Ashurst
Kelepi
Westerman

Arona
Green
Pitts
Gigot

Fifita came back a week after everyone due to contract discussions
Feeling rocky aint fully fit
