Quote: Diogenes "No surprises at all.
The starting 13 is obvious, the only issue will be the make up of the bench. We need a big bench to match the Giants pack but we also need someone who can cover hooker if need be. I suspect Houghton will play the 80 but what if he gets injured?'"
Quote: Diogenes "Radford will move Westerman to 6, Pryce to 7, Snyed to 9, to spell Houghton and Play Hadley or Thompson at 13, Just to shake things up a bit ha, or confuse things'"
Hadley will play there. There's no way Radford will start shifting 6 and 7 about - especially this early on.
I trust Houghton to play the full 80, but at least Hadley is there if absolutely needed. Maybe Cunningham and Howarth haven't trained too well in the week?
